STAGE TWO – the subject categories

[a_reader2003]

Um, the heart of the matter in my opinion. My questions are:

Do the seven sections make sense to you ? Should there be more or 
less ?

Were the sub-topics the right ones within the sections ? Would you be 
able to use them easily to label posts ?

Looking at the problem from a different angle, if you were presented 
with these seven sections as a menu on the main HPfGU website, would 
you find them adequate as a starting point for searching for a post 
or a topic ?

My own misgivings are:

SECTION ONE – LITERARY ANALYSIS

Is the title too stuffy ?
Is the themes section too loosely defined?
Should SHIPPING be here ?

SECTION TWO – INDIVIDUAL CHARACTERS

Are you ok with the fact that some characters could be in a number of 
different sections?
Will it be possible to put the TBAYS in as indicated, despite the 
fact they tend to refer to much more than one character?
Should `historical Wizarding characters' be here, or perhaps in 
section 5 or 6?

SECTION THREE – CHAPTER BY CHAPTER ANALYSIS

I meant this section strictly as a default for things which did not 
fit anywhere else, and for the chapter discussion initiated by admin –
 does it work ?? Would you put eg the TBays here which analysed what 
happened in the Shrieking Shack, or should they go with characters
 
it gets very, very complicated and we need to have a consistent 
approach if we are not to leave ourselves open to howlers.

SECTION FIVE – THE WIZARDING WORLD

Can you think of any more sections ?

SECTION SIX – MAGICAL CREATURES

Are you ok with the distinction here between this section and Section 
two – characters ? A bit arguable with Moaning Myrtle, Peeves, maybe ?

SECTION SEVEN – FUTURE PREDICTIONS

This is all Barry's fault. It was his original silly suggestion on 
the main list that we document these that started me off on the whole 
project, so blame him for this one..  Do the sections work ?
