Talisman:
I agree that this name origin example should not be coded to DE's. I 
don't think the brief reference is sufficiently substantive to put 
it there.


Also, regarding your review showing that 95% of posts involving DE's 
also involve the Dark Mark (which text I snipped before deciding to 
add this) Did you find that 95% of the posts were appropriately 
coded to both?

I guess I'm surprised, either that or I think this trend won't 
hold.  The reason I lean toward separate codes is my sense that I've 
read a lot of posts regarding DE's (their attitudes, their origins, 
what they did after LV was vaporized, etc.) that do not include 
probative--or even any--discussion of the Dark Mark. 

`Course I could be in a state of category-induced delirium.

Just don't say I didn't care. <g>
