A system has been added that will automatically add divination cards and other items to the item acquisition sections where appropriate. Entries added by this system will be shown as automatic in the item acquisition section.
Some pages will need to be updated to include upgraded_from_disabled=true
if they are not eligible for the system.
Some further details on what needs to be done can be found on Path of Exile Wiki:To-do list/Automatic upgraded from and issues can be posted on the talk page.

Skill functions and interactions
- Interaction with Totem, Trap, & Mine Skills: Spending mana by placing a totem, trap, or mine will not go towards gaining the Arcane Surge buff. Totems, traps, and mines that cast the skill also do not go towards gaining the buff.
- Duration: Increases and reductions to duration will apply to the duration of the buff. Additionally, it adds a duration component to the linked skill, which makes it supportable by support gems like

Right click to remove from a socket.(which apply their damage bonus), even if the active skill gem does not otherwise have a duration of its own.
- Eldritch Battery and Blood Magic: The buff will only activate if mana is spent. Spending Energy Shield or Life for the supported skill will not activate the buff.
- Elreon's Signature Mod: If used with a skill such that the total mana cost of the skill is zero or less, it will not count as spending mana towards the Arcane Surge, and will never activate it.
- When equipped on multiple skills, the Arcane Surge Grants buffs are applied globally and depend on the support gem level of the trigger skill. The More Spell Damage while you have Arcane Surge modifier is applied locally, and thus each support gem can have a different level (and therefore, different damage multiplier).
