Carolyn:
The way I had envisaged this working was that the person who reviewed 
the section should fix the definition, because they had just read all 
the posts in it and had decided what to do with them. That's why I 
put the reviewer's name on each one (I notice you changed Barry to 
Sean on these ones that you changed).

I dunno, but I am a bit concerned for someone else to come along and  
change a definition subsequently on a section that they hadn't 
reviewed. 

As it happens, I don't think that Barry had looked at either of these 
definitions yet, and it was still the old version sitting there, but 
I have changed the reviewer name back to him on these two so we don't 
lose track of who is supposed to be looking at what.

There are some additional problems with the DB definitions tables, as 
outlined last night, so maybe we should leave this task for a day or 
two. I need to look at how to upload all the definitions in one big 
table this weekend, without losing any of the work we have already 
done.

Carolyn:
I just checked, and I wondered what you meant by 4 rejects, as you 
seem to have kept the ones mentioned here (fortunately, as they are 
on topic!). Perhaps you meant 4 rejects out of 100 posts? 

The silver hand thing came up way back; I kept quite a lot in 
Pettigrew, but the Lupin section hasn't yet been reviewed, or 
werewolves, remedies for disposal of.
