Hi Kelly,

It appears to me as though these threads start out as a 
chapter type discussion and veer off to a particular
character(s) in that scene and eventually cultivate 
to just the character themselves.

If the post were discussing everyone involved during 
that scene, I would only code to the chapter but if 
it veers off strongly to a particular character(s) 
analysis, I would code to that character(s) as well 
as the chapter. 

In this particular example, if the post were 
discussing both Sirius and Snape's point of view
during this scene, I would code to both of the 
characters plus the chapter to keep it in that 
chapter code as well. 

Hope that helps and/or makes sense

Snow
