[HP4GU-FAQ] random suggestions

Hi all --

To answer Pippin's question, no I don't think so.  At least not the way 
I initially laid out the M&I FAQ.  This doesn't mean that the format of 
the current M&I FAQ must remain the same ... but that isn't really what 
it is right now.  Right now, it mentions all the flints, questions, plot 
holes & inconsistencies.  It discusses the theories we've come up with 
to explain each of these mysteries or inconsistencies.  It's set up by 
book & then mysteries/inconsistencies within the overall series.  In 
many cases, there's nothing more than a question (although I note that 
some of the questions that have no commentary below have been discussed 
since I wrote this FAQ over a year ago).

I think as far as the Sirius FAQ or other character FAQs, it can be 
divided up as Dicey suggests.  You might want to take a look at how I 
did the Hermione FAQ though -- I footnoted known canon facts about 
Hermione's appearance, background, family, etc. with references to the 
books.  Everything else is footnoted to specific messages.

I don't know that we need to follow a template necessarily because each 
topic will suggest it's own organization or that was my experience with 
the ones I wrote.
