@Humch, looks very nice and tidy indeed, though pages with navigation templates aplenty, like Rayman, could do with all off the navigation templates being collapsible.

Sure, I'd just like to have some more opinions before we apply these changes to more navigation templates. ;)

In the meantime, I got a little carried away and made a navigation template for the Rayman 1 enemies, could do with a different colour, since it's based off the Origins template at the moment, but I think it's handy to have such navigation present.

What do you guys think of this?
It looks great!

Definitely!
I forgot about this, definitely worth a look-over.

Neato, it's definitely worked well, I'd vote for all the nav templates to be collapsible, so that the more nav crowded pages such as Rayman and Globox aren't overwhelmed.

I like the extendable template! It was getting annoying to see such a big template all the time. :P

No one complained, so I guess we can move on with those!

Also, we need images of the enemies from the Game Boy Advance version of Rayman Raving Rabbids, does anybody have time to take care of that?

Which ones do we need and do they need to be in game and not just transparent sprites?

Well so far we have pictures for the squab, the piranha, the livingstone, the hunter and the large-mouthed fish, so that leaves pretty much every other enemy in the game, and there's quite a few. Right now the clown article looks bad and could use two or three pictures. In-game screenshots are preferred.

Thanks a bunch! Be sure to write down their resistance as well. ;)

Well I got one and hopefully it's a good one, the resistance is also 2. I've completely forgotten how buggy RRRGBA is though plus I've had to start from the beginning as it turned out I didn't have a save. VBA seems to be completely rubbish at battery saving so I'm gonna attempt to play it on NO$GBA if I'm going to even think about including the game in Raysaves.

For example I'm pretty sure these blocks aren't meant to be there.

Edit 2: I'#m up to the sweets race level and I'll carry on when I get back from work (though I've got the rest of the week off after that).

Right there's 3 now. While I was at it I came across a glitch where I somehow froze one of the clowns (in the Sweets Island level) by trying to attack him with the Elvis costume. Again VBA is rubbish at video recording so I can't get proof right now but it seems to be repeatable. X'D

Awesome! Also, I'm not sure what to write about their behaviour. It seems that they attack by throwing their rolling pin like a boomerang, but are they static?

By the way, if you can provide a savegame with all levels unlocked too, that'd be great. :)

I think we should change the "Good New Articles". They've had it good for too long.

I think the front page needs to be more active in general, we change it over spuriously and on a whim. But let's take things as they come, we've got a lot to catch up with.

You want to make it more "interactive"?

Are still the Flash games something to be considered?

@Sae, not interactive, I'd rather we had a bit of a schedule and scheme in general for the items we feature on it, such as article, quotes, images etc.

As for the flash games, not sure if they ought to be embedded on the Wiki, but I'd like to see them somewhere on RPC.
