Harry Potter Wiki is an encyclopedia dedicated to the Harry Potter franchise, including the books, movies, and video games. You can find some general tips on editing a wiki, such as how to upload images and how to link to an article, on this guide on the Help Wikia. You can learn about the rules and guidelines on Harry Potter Wiki on our policy pages.

What do you mean by "points" on your user page? You can customize your user page to include things like userboxes and pictures. ★ Starstuff ^{(Owl me!)} 13:59, October 10, 2009 (UTC)

If you go to your page you will notice that in large numbers 11667 is written and for me 15 is written. All I ask is what it means and why it is there. Also,if you go to the patronus page,you find a table. How do you make it?!--Beautiful altar 14:13, October 10, 2009 (UTC)

I think you are referring to edits? --Profiteor 14:14, October 10, 2009 (UTC)

Yes, I think I am. I am not sure. --Beautiful altar 14:15, October 10, 2009 (UTC)Beautiful altar

Well at the very top there is a blue bar with a large white number(s) ... If that is what your are talking about then that is your edit count :D --Profiteor 14:18, October 10, 2009 (UTC)

You can also find a guide on how to create tables here. ★ Starstuff ^{(Owl me!)} 14:25, October 10, 2009 (UTC)

wow !! thanks a lot !!!! please bear to answer only one more question. What do I do with the edit?!...I am really sorry to keep disturbing you people--Beautiful altar 15:00, October 10, 2009 (UTC)

When going to a page and fixing something adding some new information etc. you get an edit when you reach a certain amount of edits you can are awarded an Order of Merlin 3rd class for 1000 edits and so on. --Profiteor 16:04, October 10, 2009 (UTC)

And once you reach 10,000 edits, you are awarded Merlin's Beard. -- GrouchMan (Send an owl then scram!!) 19:31, October 27, 2009 (UTC)
