I have added a new category 3.17.2 Triwizard Tournament, which might 
be a useful one to catch these discussions, but coding to 'General 
properties' etc, was fine. I probably would also have coded to the 
chapter on the second task in GOF.

Fidelius category is 3.8.4.8
Magical genetics is 3.4.7
Owl post is 3.7.5
Werewolves/lycanthropy are: 3.4.4 and 2.11.6
Marauders Map is 3.8.6.1

Posts about how specific things work would be better in these type of 
categories rather than the general magic one.

Potter for President I have put in 3.2.2 because the posts I have had 
were largely about the influence on the muggle world on what the 
Hogwarts kids were shouting, but no problem also coding into British 
govt and politics as well.

I have added 4.4.5 British School Traditions to that section, to 
cater for all those posts
