Preliminary Review of 2.10 (only)

[snow15145]

I made a complete run-through of the 245 posts ticked to 2.10 (only). 
The following is what I have found:

The tally for the posts that I have kept under this heading is 180

Posts that should be dropped from this category, i.e. they make a 
mere mention of a death eater and belong to a more specific category 
stands at 40

There are a bit of one-line posts that were reiterated in following 
posts that should be deleted and a few OT type posts that deserve the 
axe as well. These rejected posts tally is 19

There are 6 questionable posts, which include:

The Slytherin gang that Sirius said Snape hung out with, should they 
be coded to Slytherin or Death Eater? There is very little mention of 
death eaters as a topic but more an assumption that Slytherin's are 
death eaters or will become one. The entire scope of the post is 
whether Slytherin's are good or bad. 

The one post had no reference at all to JKR or the books but was an 
answer to who Thanatosos was. I'm not sure if someone had kept this 
for some reason I am unaware of, so I thought I'd ask before deleting 
it. 

There are a few posts that talked about pureblood and whether or not 
this was the reason they became dark or evil but had very little, if 
any, reference to death eaters as a topic. These posts along with a 
few that need an added category will be dumped into the new review 
box for various reasons with an explanation in the comment box



Just a few odd comments:

Someone had a few too many when coding one night because the category 
ticks were longer than the post
needless to say my subject point was 
not to be ticked. This one should be reviewed and will be 
appropriately dumped into the review box. 

Why didn't we have a tick box for Elkins all to herself
it would have 
made it easier than ticking every box on the agenda list

...God 
Bless Her! 


I will proceed to make all necessary changes to complete this 
category heading within 24 hrs. unless otherwise advised.

P.S. To Talisman who was curious as to how many posts spoke of the 
Death Eaters in reference to the Dark Mark, the total is much less 
than the percent I had first quoted, only 35 out of 245 that gives us 
approximately 14% to date. Way off on that estimation wasn't I.
