Welcome to the PathfinderWiki community!
Need help? You can get Pathfinder Wiki-specific help in the help section, although we recommend you read the Wikipedia help for general guidance on editing wiki articles, go through our tutorial, and play in the sandbox.
Want to hang out? We have a friendly Discord chat where you can ask questions or hang out. You can also leave messages for other users by editing their Talk pages, and build out your own user page to introduce yourself.
Ready to jump in? Find our most wanted pages to create content, or flesh out stubbed articles, stubbed sections, and articles with unincorporated sources.
Policies and standards
Refer to these resources to help build and maintain the wiki and its community:
- Browse PathfinderWiki policies, or create and discuss new policy proposals.
- View the manual of style to hone your stylistic consistency in edits.
Citing and categorizing
People should be able to easily find relevant, accurate information in wiki articles, so it is important to provide verifiable references to official sources and canonical materials, and to categorize content for efficient indexing.
- To help improve the wiki's integrity, check the list of articles lacking sources or articles in need of citations.
- Templates exist to make the citation process easier. The most useful ones are {{Cite}}, and {{Cite web}}. For specific works, see the citation templates category. Templates can take some getting used to if you're new to wiki-editing, so be sure to read the instructions thoroughly, and ask for help if you need it.
- Infobox templates simplify the work of attractively summarizing article content while also automating categorization. Many infobox templates have extensive documentation.
