I was wondering whether we should have a Very Frequently Asked 
Questions (VFAQ) section listing only those questions that make us 
all cry "not again!"  The intention would be to prevent new members 
from asking these questions, which might otherwise be buried in the 
topical FAQs.  We could just say "see such-and-such FAQ" rather than 
writing yet another summary for each.

Is this worth considering? Any thoughts on what might be included?

Here a few...

Wand order
Gleam in the eye
Stouffer lawsuit
When is the film out?
When is Book 5 out?
Ancestor/descendent
Number of students

I'm working on Ron Weasley at the moment.  Penny, I haven't gone into 
much detail on Love Interest; just a teaser and reference to the 
Romance Pairings FAQ.  Is that okay?

On the other hand, I have included the same section on "will Ron get 
to play Quidditch?" in both the RW and Quidditch FAQs, for different 
reasons.

I haven't made much headway on Snape, which is the Boggart of my 
collection, but I have to do the character summary for mid February, 
so that gives me an incentive to complete it.

Some of the FAQs that I thought would be a doddle are turning out to 
be a pain.  Casting, for example, which is potential linkfest with 
all the pictures of cast members and locations, biogs etc.  Thank 
goodness Jim has all the files in hand.  Ages ago I asked him to cast 
an eye over the FAQ, so it's no surprise he's now asking how we're 
doing!  

Spells and Charms is another one of those burgeoning topics: for 
example, I feel obliged to scan the megazillion "Priori Incantatem" 
posts for relevant comments, although most of those fall under 
Mysteries & Inconsistencies.

I will soldier on. <g>
