I was invited by Penny to do the Dumbledore FAQ - I'm hacking away at 
a HP4GU character sketch to transmogrify it to an (a?) FAQ.  
Shouldn't take that long - I'd appreciate feedback when I post it 
here.

BTW, how do I access our previous incarnation via Yahoo Groups?

Subject: FAQs: Further Updates; Maintenance
Message-ID: <3B680DF8.AFCE66AF@swbell.net>

Hi everyone --

Some further things that need to be added/changed on the website Steve.

1.  Add in Peter Pettigrew (and Draco Malfoy (Malfoy Family) under
Characters.
2.  Remove Similarities between Potters & Voldemort
3.  Under World of HP, add "British Education System"; delete Houses of
Hogwarts as that is included under the Hogwarts FAQ

Then, just upload most recent version of Fanfiction & Weasley Family and
we'll be caught up at present.

I had some thoughts about FAQs maintenance this morning.  I know I do
not have the time to maintain all 9 of the FAQs that I wrote, and I'm
sure other FAQ'ers feel the same.  My thought would be to hand-choose
some people to approach about maintaining specific FAQs before opening
it up to the group as a whole for volunteers.  Here are my thoughts
about my own FAQs --

1.  JKR -- This one probably won't require much maintenance since it's
mainly biographical info on Jo, but I'd just as soon not worry with it
myself.  I have no real thoughts on who might be willing to
maintain/update this one now & again.  Thoughts?

2.  Hogwarts -- This will require fairly extensive updating and seems
likely to be one that will need to be monitored for facts given in JKR
chats & such.  I nominate Steve V to maintain this one if he's willing
(given that similar maintenance will be done on his Lexicon site on this
topic).  <g>

3.  Mysteries & Inconsistencies -- This is a big project!  I am
constantly shifting messages into my FAQs-Mysteries folder as people
discover more & more flints, mysteries, etc.  I nominate Joywitch, Amy Z
or David as potential candidates to keep up with this one.  Are you
game, Amy or shall I approach Joywitch?

4.  Potential Romance Pairings -- I'll keep this one.  I'm sure you're
all relieved (and shocked).  <g>

5.  Government -- Not much required so I don't mind keeping this one
too.

6.  Hermione -- I'm definitely keeping this one!!  Near & dear to my
heart ...

7.  Universal Appeal of HP -- I'll keep this one too as I am possibly
the only person who really cares much about it.

8.  Religion & HP -- Do I recall that Mike expressed an interest in
possibly maintaining/updating this one?

9.  Fanfiction -- I am not as involved in the fanfic world at present as
others are so I nominate Ebony, Heidi and/or Carole as candidates to
keep up with this one.  Thoughts ladies?  Any takers?

Neil, if I were you, I'd start buttering up Amanda for taking on
maintenance of that Snape FAQ.  <g>

Okay, that's it for now.

Hey, Penny and FAQers--

Two things:

1)  Expect the Ethnicity FAQ from me the week of August 13th.  I will *not* 
post another chapter of fanfiction until you have what I've promised... sorry 
it's taken me so long.  And please, edit away... I don't think it'll be the 
best synthesis I've ever done 

2)  Heidi and I will update the Fanfiction FAQ together... I'll try to make 
some time to do that before I leave next weekend... the problem is that I 
*have* the original copy of the Fanfiction FAQ on my home computer (the one 
you sent this fall, Penny).

FYI--I will be offline from Friday 8/10 until either Monday 8/13 or Tuesday 
8/14.  I plan to finish the FAQ before the 20th, because after 8/27 I will 
not have time to do very much at all (besides fanfic if I can... and even 
that's a hope, wish, and a prayer!) until Christmas vacation.  You guys 
*know* how scarce I was last autumn... but we'll see.

I would be happy to do this, although I don't read NEARLY all the 
posts on HP4GU anymore, due to lack of time and more often than not a 
lack of interesting posts to read. No offense, but there have been 
some pretty lean times for someone with my interest areas lately. 
That is, until we hit the time line stuff. Yeehaw!


Just to update you all: As Lupin said, I picked a particularly bad 
time to get sick. I found myself so utterly exhausted in the last 
couple of days that I literally couldn't do a thing. I slept a solid 
eleven hours last night and I'm MUCH better today, so I will plan to 
do some FAQ work this evening (I spent the day out and about with my 
wife, sort of a date-cum-errands kind of thing). Sorry to not get all 
the changes and updates done quite as quickly as you'd have liked, 
Penny, but I'll be back on it soon. Now I'm going to go in the 
backyard with something cold to drink and a good book and my birds 
and flowers and butterflies and relax. It's a mere 94 degrees here 
and humid as can be. That, I think, is why God invented beer.

Hi all,

Believe it or not, I've just uploaded a draft of the McGonagall FAQ.  It's a
word document, and I've formatted in the fonts Steve suggested (but with
refs as 10pt Arial).  I haven't attempted to HTML-ise it, but let me know if
there's anything else I can do to it, formatting-wise. It's in the FAQ
folder of this club.

Content-wise, there is some stuff that could come out I guess, and I'd like
to make the refs into direct links at some point...and maybe add some more
quotes.  Anyway, it would be handy if someone could cast an eye over it
before it goes live...

I don't know why I've taken so long to do this.  Obviously, I haven't been
working on it for a *whole* year, but I did leave it 95% completed for ages.
Penny managed to conceive and give birth to a child in that time... <g>

Quidditch next.  Hmmm.

Sorry to hear you've been sick Steve!  Best wishes for a speedy

ticket toward recovery (well ... I must confess to not liking beer
myself ... but I understand that beer-drinkers can think of nothing
better than a cold one on a warm afternoon).  :--)

One more thing I've seen that needs fixin' -- need to reconvert the JKR
FAQ so that the footnotes come through.

Thanks everyone!

A quick question: I'm toiling away at my Pettigrew FAQ and thought I'd list
all the filks in which he stars. I have "The Way We Gnaw" from you. Would
you happen to know of any others off the top of your head?

Coincidental that you ask.  This very day I set up my very first very own
website which offers my collection of HP filks.

http://home.att.net/~coriolan/hpfilks.htm

I have a filk titled "Pettigrew" to the familiar tune of Peggy Sue at

http://home.att.net/~coriolan/azkaban.htm#Pettigrew

Pettigrew figures in The Riddle Manor House and I Just Can't Wait to be
Cloned from The Goblet of Fire

http://home.att.net/~coriolan/gofire.htm

Then I have a dialogue between Pettigrew and Voldy (this is a personal
favorite, though I keep changing the lyrics) set to a somewhat obscure Cole
Porter tune. (the original is, as you may surmise, between two lovers)

http://home.att.net/~coriolan/voldemort.htm#You're Bad for Me

Do you like The Way We Gnaw?  I left it off the site, but heck, if it has
even a single fan out there, I'll post it.

I look forward to seeing your Pettigrew FAQ. Now off to work on the
Dumbledore stuff.

I had the same thought as Mike, and added a link to "McGonga" at the 
top of the McGonagall FAQ (draft uploaded).  Since you don't have 
this one on your site, I'd assume this is the only McGonagall filk 
you've done?

Question X, Suggestion Y, etc." comments that have shown up on the list.  
Should it go directly to that FAQ author?  That's what I would find most

<sigh> I think so, but I'm not sure. The one drawback to my cultural
ignorance (geez ... you reckon there's another one?) is not knowing most of
the songs you people filk. I always have a blast when I know the tune, but
so far that's happened a grand total of three times. (I did get Pippin's
filk to the tune of "Clementine"--in fact, I can even sing it under the
shower.)

I could easily make the name of the editor into an email link, so 
anyone clicking on it would open up a blank email with that person's 
address filled in. I think I'd like each editor to specifically give 
me the address they want that linked to and I won't link any that I 
don't hear from that it's okay.

However, as I stated before, if the comments are typos, they should 
go to me. I will do that kind of editing (since I have to do ALL the 
editing as it now stands) so I will just field those notes and edit 
when I get a chance. That's what I do with the Lexicon now. 

However, I would rather not have to upload entirely new versions of 
the FAQs if possible. It would honestly be a lot easier just to type 
in new passages or do edits in the existing document. So if you 
decide that something needs to be changed, just send me the updated 
paragraphs and let me know where to place them. 

UPDATE: The index page is now correct, I think. I still need to 
upload a couple of pages, which I have downloaded from the files 
section. I will work on the translation to HTML and get them online 
ASAP. When they are live, do we send an ADMIN message with an 
announcement?

Whaddaya think, sirs?  

CMC, you just said you've revised most of them, so I would make a note 
of that and link to your site in addition to, or instead of, the 
original messages.

Filks are one of my favorite things on the list, so I would personally 
love to be able to look up a filk by subject, or (getting ambitious

What about the case of extensive revisions?  Let's just take the
Hermione FAQ for example.  Let's say that I needed to not only add in
sentences but basically reword things intermittently throughout the
document to take into account someone's new thoughts.  Let's say I also
needed to add in new footnotes (and update existing footnotes) -- is it
still the case that you want me to just type those changes up & send
them to you, only to have you retype them yet again?

I admit I know nothing about HTML, but it seems to me it would be easier
to have step-by-step instructions that even the uninitiated FAQ
maintenance crew members could follow.  <g>  Obviously, I want to do the
easiest thing possible for everyone.  But, I'm afraid you might come to
hate me, Steve!  When I'm revising a document, I tend to revise a fair
bit of phrasing as I'm going along -- or I see things that should really
be moved around a bit.  I can try to curb this tendency .... but is
there no way to let us actually do the edits ourselves?  I'm a
semi-professional writer, have been an editor in some form or fashion
for nearly 15 years and might ...cough ... have some control issues with
documents.  :--)

Yes.  Be sure to send a duplicate announcement to the Announcements
list.  You might also make note in the message if updated FAQs are also
available (like when the changed version of Fanfiction is up).

I got an e-mail from Haggridd today in which he sent his compliments 
and thanks to all involved for the FAQs, which he's finding really 
valuable.  

I couldn't agree more.  I've been having so much fun reading them!
