[edit] Re: Entering the magical world of Harry Potter editing...

Hey Gingersnap Cookies, well, glad to have you on board. We are much in need of work and I have so little time… For references, since there are so many editions of the book, I think it's been okayed to just list the chapter number that the information's in. We have some templates (Template:PS, etc. through HBP [and now apparently DH too]), with a parameter for chapter number, but I'd advise against those, as they start to clutter up the page and aren't vey attractive. Nothing more I can think of right now -- oh, references from fan sites, as long as they're notable in the HP world, are okay, if you're citing something not found in the books. Thanks! --Fbv65edel / ☑t / ☛c || 04:28, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

No problem! Also, just thought of it now, you may want to read WP:WAF. --Fbv65edel / ☑t / ☛c || 03:22, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
