== Should handheld versions be included? == | |||
User Великий минимус recently added the GBA and N-Gage versions of Rayman 3 to the list of platforms in this article, which I then reverted since those are different games. Today said user has undone my reverted change and added more information about them. To avoid an editing war, I think we should come to a decision on if these belong here or not. | |||
So the question is ultimately, do games released with the same name as the main game, but which are clearly different games, belong in the main article? I went ahead and checked what had been done for other games, and it appears rather inconsistent: | |||
* ''[[Rayman 1]]'' does not list the GBC version | |||
* ''[[Rayman 2]]'' does list GBC version | |||
* ''[[Rayman 3]]'' did not list the GBA/N-Gage versions and does not list the mobile version | |||
* ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids]]'' does not list the GBA or DS versions | |||
* ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids 2]]'' does list the DS version | |||
* ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids TV Party]]'' does list the DS and mobile versions | |||
* ''[[Tonic Trouble]]'' does list the GBC version | |||
Another thing worth mentioning - in the case of this article, there is already a link to the disambiguation article at the very top, as well as a section for "Portable versions" further down which links to them and states they are different games. | |||
Personally my opinion is that they don't belong. We already seem to have a good system for dealing with this, where at the top of the article we link to a disambiguation article, as is the case with this article, or directly link to the other games, like the Raving Rabbids article does. If we reach a decision here I think we should go back and update the mentioned articles to have them all be consistent with each other. --[[File:Carrot signature.png|75px|link=User:Raycarrot]] 08:44, 13 January 2024 (CET) | |||
