Rayman-Fanpage was an unofficial active Rayman website created and maintained by Matthias Franke, starting in 2000. It is available in German, English, French, Spanish, Dutch, and Italian, and was found at http://rayman-fanpage.de/. Rayman Fanpage is an affiliate of the Rayman Pirate-Community. A antiquated sub-site intended for 2000s PDAs can be seen here.

Once just a regular website similar to RayWiki containing information for the Rayman series (and later the Rabbids series) as a whole, it has since become a unintentional time capsule and a helpful repository for pre-Origins Rayman information and has saved links otherwise not found anywhere else, almost resembling the likes of a digital archive. Franke maintained the website for over 24 years, until he passed away on June 2024[1][2] and the website malfunctioned in his absence. Visiting the website as of November 2024 brings the reader to an error page.

The website has covered several Rayman games and media, including several sub-pages pertaining to information about Rayman throughout the world with scans and pictures of otherwise-rare memorabilia included.

Several of the website's pages make reference to old, if not obsolete websites, some of which have become dead links or redirect to completely different sources entirely. Usage of the Wayback Machine to explore these old pages is recommended.
