In some of the Arcane School pages there are descriptions like "Metamagic Mastery (Su)" or "Blinding ray (Sp)". Just curious what they mean, I might be missing something important. Thanks.

After a bit of juggling our wiki portfolios, I am becoming your Fandom wiki manager today.
I've been a Gamepedia Wiki Manager for many years now, but the Fandom platform is still quite new to me, so go easy on me, but if you need help, I'll do the best I can.
Just Updated
For those who have not yet heard: Last year, Gamepedia and Fandom joined forces and are now two platforms on the same network. Later this year, we'll even become one unified platform. The teams at both Gamepedia and Fandom want to encourage our communities to work together now instead of splitting their efforts and competing with each other for readers and new editors.
I'd like to know how all of you here feel about uniting with Gamepedia's Pathfinder Kingmaker community. That would mean we archive one wiki - lock it from editing but keep the pages accessible to readers - and put a banner up that directs visitors towards the other, active wiki. Anyone who used to edit the now-archived wiki would be able to contribute to the active wiki, and any content on one side that's missing on the other can be moved over with edit histories intact. Note: No merger will take place if both communities don't agree to it.
The advantages of becoming one community working together are clear: By working together, all fans of Pathfinder Kingmaker could build a resource on the game more effectively, keep it up-to-date more easily, and players would no longer be confused as to which site they should turn to for information.
There are two questions
Are you interested in merging with your partner community on Gamepedia?
If so, where should the future active wiki live?
Both wikis have significant amounts of content. The wiki here receives about 458,000 pageviews per month. On Gamepedia, it's about 355,000 per month. That would make Fandom the likely choice, but what really matters is where editors want to edit. Keep in mind that later this year, both the Gamepedia and this Fandom wiki will move onto the same platform and then have a very similar if not the same layout, tool set and staff support.
Could you see yourself contributing to the Gamepedia wiki? Would you love to see the two communities united, but only if it's here on Fandom? Would you prefer to keep the two communities separate entirely? Please speak up!
You can also check the conversation on the Gamepedia wiki on this same topic. Can't wait to hear what you think!
I’m part of a new team over at Fandom who are tasked with supporting communities, such as yours. Lucky you, you’ve been designated me! If you have any questions relating to your wiki—whether it's code-related, policy related, or otherwise—I'm your first point of contact, and your own personal liaison to full-time Fandom Staff.
Hey Kingmakers,
I'm Paizo's franchise manager and an admin on the Pathfinder and Starfinder wikis at pathfinderwiki.com and starfinderwiki.com, respectively. I wanted to reach out to you as a community and let you know that there are currently a lot of images on this wiki that don't qualify as legal under the Community Use Policy. Most notably, these are images taken from Paizo PDFs that have not been released for community use either as part of the Community Use Package on paizo.com, or as attachments to official Paizo blogs. For example, [[:File:Oleg.png]] is taken from a PDF rather than a legal CUP source. If you're ever curious if an image can be legally used on a project like this, check to see if it's been posted on PathfinderWiki, as we keep that site's images up to date with all the content we legally can. Screenshots and images pulled from the computer game itself are likely fine under fair use (and that determination needs to come from Deep Silver and/or Owlcat, rather than Paizo), but images from Paizo PDFs that aren't otherwise released into the CUP are a no-no. Thanks for complying with these community guidelines!
Are you going to try to get on board with the new beta before the game comes out at the end of September? Have you been a part of any of the game testing already?
