==Name of species==


Why did you changed his specie back to unknown ?... It's called a thingamajig. And he acts more stupid so why remove it ? It isn't cool to just delete text were someone worked on without a reason (like my Rayman Origins part of Globox and Teensie.)- Frenkystijn

:::::::::::''Sparks of Hope'' has undeniably brought Rayman back into the public eye, and is likely the reason Ubisoft is now investigating a proper new game. But chances are that ''Sparks of Hope'''s soft redesign is a one-time thing, akin to Crash Bandicoot's appearance in ''Skylanders'' before the ''N. Sane Trilogy'' and ''Crash 4'' or Mega Man's appearance in ''Super Smash Bros.'' before ''Mega Man 11''. I called ''Sparks of Hope'' a "crossover" because Ubisoft considers ''Rabbids'' its own franchise since ''Rabbids Go Home'', and following that there have been no Rayman appearances in ''Rabbids'' media up until the DLC. It's similar to how the ''Half-Life'' and ''Portal'' franchises actually take place in the same universe, but have a very thin connection otherwise aside from a plot device shared between ''Half-Life 2: Episode 2'' and ''Portal 2'' and supplementary lore revealed in developer interviews. I think prioritizing the main ''Rayman'' series itself for visual representations of characters is more preferable than trying to justify which appearances in other franchises are "close enough" to be used instead, regardless of scope.

::::::::::::Is this the last day to decide the final infobox image? {{Unsigned|Teensies in globox|15:32, 29 December 2024‎ (CEST)}}
:::::::::::::I'm counting 4 votes for Legends and 2 for Phantom Show so I say we change the article to use the former for now and keep the discussion open to gather more votes and attempt to reach a wider consensus. —[[File:RRRGBAIcon8.png|class=sprite|link=User:Hunchman801]][[File:RRRGBAIcon0.gif|class=sprite|link=User:Hunchman801]][[File:RRRGBAIcon1.png|class=sprite|link=User:Hunchman801]] 00:11, 30 December 2024 (UTC)
::::::::::::::I replaced the [[Rayman]] image of ''[[Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope]]'': ''[[Rayman in the Phantom Show]]'' with the victory image from ''[[Rayman Legends]]'' and ''[[Rayman Legends: Definitive Edition]]'' due to the votes. {{Unsigned|Teensies in globox|14:46, 31 December 2024‎ (CEST)}}
== Structure of game appearances ==
I think that, instead of a nested structure with spin-off appearances inside the section for the main game, a flat structure in purely chronological order would be more intuitive and easier to navigate. Additionally, does Retold really count as a spin-off of Legends? As a remake, I'm not sure it belongs in the same category as Jungle Run, Fiesta Run and Mini. This also applies to other articles featuring this nested structure, for example [[Globox]], [[Polokus]] and [[Grand Minimus]].
