SLYTH: DE's, Aurors, and Justice

[Tom Wall]

Eileen answered my question on why DE's and Aurors should be together:
If Aurors and DEs were seperate, the poor FPers would have to explain
HumanRightsMartyr!Wilkes twice over. You'll find that though they seem
different categories, in practice list discussion has always merged
the two. It's all 
Lestrange/Avery/Crouch/Longbottom/Moody/Wilkes/Rosier/Snape all the
time. (But not in a shippy sense!) The Aurors have less to do with the
government in list discussion than they do with the Death Eaters.

Dreannimer added:
Well, I'm voting for the "Evil-Doers and their 
Pursuers"/ "Government" division here; I don't think that the Cops-n-
Robbers business should just be folded into the Executive branch or 
something, because I think that wouldn't really give Cops-n-Robbers 
quite the independant heft that I think that it deserves.

I reply:
Yup, I agree with you both here. 

It does make sense to link topics as they would be on-list. So, a FAQ 
on Aurors and DE's would be okay by me (I'm still thinking 
that `Justice' should be filed under the Judiciary,) but could we 
also do something like, oh, mentioning the Aurors as an enforcement 
arm of the MoM (in a government FAQ, if it should be written) and 
then providing a link to the "Evil-doers and their Pursuers" FAQ for 
a more in-depth discussion?

That way, if anyone (who thinks like I do) wants to go and look 
up `Aurors' under the government section, then they'll still find a 
link to the analysis elsewhere.

As Eileen pointed out, we don't want to have to perform double duty 
here just to satisfy my (admittedly often fussy) desire for specific 
categories, and I can see how this would happen in a lot of cases. 

For instance, I already see issues with the dementors, which could 
technically fit into several categories (Voldemort supporters, 
Ministry goons, etc) It would be absurd to file them separately under 
separate categories just because they fit. But it wouldn't be absurd 
to pick one category (say, 'Death Eaters,') do the in-depth work 
there, and provide links for the overlaps.

-Tom, who just now understands Derannimer's worries of the Death 
Eaters taking over the Ministry and what that could mean for the 
FAQ's. :-0
