Ok, once again, I apologize for having been an idiot. To add insult
to injury, one of the posts I thought had already been done was the
result of my not being able to read my own handwriting and ending up
in the wrong post in a thread about teachers.
Geesh. I promise I will do better in the future.
So, to teachers:
Binns: was 32, now 22
Grubbly-Plank: was 6, now 5
Hooch: was 14, now 9
Kettleburn: was 2, now 2
Ogg: was 5, now 3
Pince: was 12, now 9
Pomfrey: was 65, now 52
Pringle: was 5, now 4
Sinistra: was 48, now 28
Sprout: was 18, now 12
Vector: was 5, now 2
Quite a bit of the uncoding was due to posts talking about teachers
which talked about the main characters and added "we don't know much
about so-and-so" for the unknowns.
There was a lot of talk about Sinistra's gender. I kept only the
more creative posts explaining why dancing with Moody was not enough
to determine gender. I only kept one of several who brought this
subject up in the first place. They should have known better.
Fortunately, JKR has cleared this up.
Hooch and Pomphrey lost a few to Rita (Catlady). Her original post
explaining her version of their background was kept, but later side
references were uncoded (ie, someone wonders if MM and DD are a
couple and she only states the she is a MM/Hooch shipper without
adding to that.)
Quite a bit of what is still there is about stereotypes. Pince and
Poppy in women's roles, and Hooch and G-P as stereotype lesbians.
Binns as a dull history teacher.
Ogg and most of Pringle are in relation to Molly and Arthur's ages.
On an unrelated note: I signed up for Other Wizard Characters. It
says 1-23 in the database. I am assuming that Dippet, #24, was added
after the database was created, and I am including him with the
others.
Ginger, apologizing once again for being such a scaredy-cat and twit.
