Hi [[Professor]]. I see there's been a number of users over the time this wiki has existed who have been taking things ''waay'' too personally, or who have made personal attacks. I was thinking of making a template, like:<br /><small>"Chill out, dude! You're taking everything way too seriously. Please calm down."</small><br />with a little red hand on the left. What do you think? --<span style="font-size:9pt;line-height:0.56cm;">[[User:Hunnie Bunn|<font face="Monotype Corsiva" size="4" color="Purple">Hunnie</font>]] [[User talk:Hunnie Bunn|<font face="Monotype Corsiva" size="4" color="Purple">Bunn</font>]]</span> 01:15, March 12, 2013 (UTC)

::Admittedly, it ''is'' a copy-and-paste of what you wrote on my talk page, but all the same: [[Template:Temper|here it is]]. The code to produce it is <nowiki>{{Temper}}</nowiki> (not too sure if that's the best name for it). And sure, that shouldn't be too difficult (for the QotW).

::PS: Have you ever heard [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mW3Wp7SH3JI this song]? My best friend's uncle is the lead singer.

Hi, after I read about your "relaxing songs" I was curious and heard them both. I like them both. Yours is very meditative. This song I could hear for hours, days, weeks, but the other I like, too. <span style="border:1px solid #E56717;">[[User:Harry granger|<font style="background:#F75D59;color:gold;"> '''Harry granger''' </font>]][[User talk:Harry granger|<font style="background:yellow;color:black;"> ''' Talk '''</font>]]<font style="background:yellow;color:;"> [[Special:Contributions/Harry granger|<font style="background: #99CCFF;color:#993300;"> '''contribs'''</font>]]<font style="background: #99CCFF;color:#993300;"> </font></font></span> 16:24, March 12, 2013 (UTC)

==RE:Re: Relaxing songs==

Thank you for the new songs. When I've found them AND get again access to another computer like today I will try them.

== Template, Part II ==

Sorry, I forgot to respond the first time. Yes, I think it would be a good idea to put the song in with the template... but would the coding carry it properly? I don't trust computers and coding and such things too well. --<span style="font-size:9pt;line-height:0.56cm;">[[User:Hunnie Bunn|<font face="Monotype Corsiva" size="4" color="Purple">Hunnie</font>]] [[User talk:Hunnie Bunn|<font face="Monotype Corsiva" size="4" color="Purple">Bunn</font>]]</span> 18:23, March 13, 2013 (UTC)

==Bridge Scene==

And I had another question. Have you seen the third film (I don't want to give too many spoilers)? --<span style="font-size:9pt;line-height:0.56cm;">[[User:Hunnie Bunn|<font face="Monotype Corsiva" size="4" color="Purple">Hunnie</font>]] [[User talk:Hunnie Bunn|<font face="Monotype Corsiva" size="4" color="Purple">Bunn</font>]]</span> 18:32, March 13, 2013 (UTC)

:Just wondering, what did you think when you saw the scene on the bridge? With Lupin talking about Lily? --<span style="font-size:9pt;line-height:0.56cm;">[[User:Hunnie Bunn|<font face="Monotype Corsiva" size="4" color="Purple">Hunnie</font>]] [[User talk:Hunnie Bunn|<font face="Monotype Corsiva" size="4" color="Purple">Bunn</font>]]</span> 18:47, March 13, 2013 (UTC)
+

::That's true; there was indeed quite a bit of "good stuff" in the films (especially, methinks, in the third one). I agree with most of what you said, but Rowling said Sirius was "unhinged" - he saw his best friend in pain, not a feral monster getting ready to shred everyone apart. I don't blame him for his actions, even if perhaps they weren't the most sensible.
+
+
::As for the bridge scene, I'll admit the "Your mother was there for me at a time when no one else was. Not only was she a singularly gifted witch, she was also an uncommonly kind woman. She had a way of seeing the beauty in others even, and perhaps most especially, when that person couldn't see it in themselves" line(s) kind of reminded me of the "[http://www.accio-quote.org/articles/2005/0705-tlc_mugglenet-anelli-3.htm Lupin was very fond of Lily]" line, and I have to wonder whether J. K. Rowling will expand on this in Lupin's biography. --<span style="font-size:9pt;line-height:0.56cm;">[[User:Hunnie Bunn|<font face="Monotype Corsiva" size="4" color="Purple">Hunnie</font>]] [[User talk:Hunnie Bunn|<font face="Monotype Corsiva" size="4" color="Purple">Bunn</font>]]</span> 19:06, March 13, 2013 (UTC)

:::Well, we ''did'' get the info on Aunt Marge, the Knight Bus and Cadogan, as well as Professor Kettleburn in the first set of chapters. But all the same, there are twenty-two chapters in the book, and there's an illustration from the fourteenth one in there which means we'll be getting at least six chapters. Leaving eight chapters after that, and a whole biography. So hopefully they'll come out soon.
+
:::Do you have an estimate as to when you think they'll be released? It's been around two months (now I stop to think about it, closer to three) so probably soon. I'm guessing the twentieth if we're lucky (because it's usually around the end of the month) and April 12 if we aren't (because it's normally on a Friday that they're released). --<span style="font-size:9pt;line-height:0.56cm;">[[User:Hunnie Bunn|<font face="Monotype Corsiva" size="4" color="Purple">Hunnie</font>]] [[User talk:Hunnie Bunn|<font face="Monotype Corsiva" size="4" color="Purple">Bunn</font>]]</span> 20:19, March 13, 2013 (UTC)

::::It wouldn't be half as aggravating if they would update the ''Insider'' to let us know what they're up to or something.

== Quidditch teams with robes mess ==
+
+
I believe [http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Quidditch_Team_infobox?curid=12521&diff=780307&oldid=754339 this edit] was the source of the problem, so I've reverted it and deleted the categories.
+
+
While we're on the subject, I think at some point we need to have a discussion about notability and standards for categories too. Some of the ones we have now seem ridiculously over-specific and/or redundant. Case in point, right now there are [[:Category:Dragons]], [[:Category:Dragons (species)]], and [[:Category:Individual dragons]]. I'm probably going to go ahead and consolidate them into just "Dragons" and delete the other two.
Hi Professor. Just wondered whether you could please rename [[Rubeus Hagrid's cabin]] to "Hagrid's Hut" as it is referred as such in ''Pottermore'', the most recent canon source. Thanks. --<span style="font-size:9pt;line-height:0.56cm;">[[User:Hunnie Bunn|<font face="Monotype Corsiva" size="4" color="Purple">Hunnie</font>]] [[User talk:Hunnie Bunn|<font face="Monotype Corsiva" size="4" color="Purple">Bunn</font>]]</span> 20:19, March 16, 2013 (UTC)

Hi Professor. It's been two months (actually, I think three) since the last Time-Turner article (the only two are [[Tom Riddle|Moldyshorts]] and [[Harry Potter|Harry]]). I already have one for [[Albus Dumbledore|Dumbledore]] ready if you want, coding and everything are done. However, if you have an idea of your own I think that would be good. So I suppose come morning we'll see how things turn out, hopefully it's all good :) --'''<span style="font-size:9pt;line-height:0.56cm;">[[User:Hunnie Bunn|<font face="Rockwell" size="4" color="Purple">Am I annoying you yet?</font>]] [[User talk:Hunnie Bunn|<font face="Rockwell" size="4" color="Orange">If not, let me know when I am.</font>]]</span>''' 01:51, March 18, 2013 (UTC)

Hello Professor. I wondered a few things: first, whether you had this PlayStation Home. And second, whether you'd noticed the hint dropped [http://insider.pottermore.com/2013/03/a-new-way-to-experience-pottermore.html#more here] that the next ''[[Pottermore]]'' release will be sooner than we think ;) . Surely if it was in April they'd have said "in the coming months" instead of "the coming weeks"? --'''<span style="font-size:9pt;line-height:0.56cm;">[[User:Hunnie Bunn|<font face="Rockwell" size="4" color="Purple">Am I annoying you yet?</font>]] [[User talk:Hunnie Bunn|<font face="Rockwell" size="4" color="Orange">If not, let me know when I am.</font>]]</span>''' 00:52, March 19, 2013 (UTC)

==Just so you know==
+
I was fixing the notes on [[Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (film)]] to be more in line with their correct book chapter. If you look at the coverage I did with my book for the [[Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban]] page, then it can help with that task. I am only contacting you since my edit was reverted along with the edit of that bad IP User's bad edit.-[[User:Adv193|Adv193]] ([[User talk:Adv193|talk]]) 19:32, March 19, 2013 (UTC)
+
:Okay there is a small update and another note I am going to divide up into there proper chapters that I have to do. Also I dealt with that kind of problem before by carefully tracking the update and copy and pasted the correct stuff before posting to avoid conflicting with good faith edits just as long as it is not too complicated. -[[User:Adv193|Adv193]] ([[User talk:Adv193|talk]]) 20:13, March 19, 2013 (UTC)

== Hagrid ==
+
+
Yes, it does seem a bit sad that Harry, Hermione and Neville had to suffer because Hagrid couldn't confess. I agree that Hagrid could have given himself up, but if I remember correctly the punishment for owning a dragon egg is Azkaban. And Hagrid started crying just thinking of that horrible place.
+
+
What made me lose a lot of respect for Hagrid was when he said "An' it's your bad luck you grew up a family o' the biggest Muggles I've ever laid eyes on". Saying that Harry had bad luck living with a big family of Muggles seemed like a bit of a slap in the face - like Muggles are bad. It went against the whole theme of the last two or three books. --'''<span style="font-size:9pt;line-height:0.56cm;">[[User:Hunnie Bunn|<font face="Rockwell" size="4" color="Purple">Am I annoying you yet?</font>]] [[User talk:Hunnie Bunn|<font face="Rockwell" size="4" color="Orange">If not, let me know when I am.</font>]]</span>''' 19:47, March 20, 2013 (UTC)

Hey Professor Tofty, while searching the web one day, I happend to stumble upon this picture - [http://image.zcool.com.cn/img2/34/14/m_1311300785868.jpg m_1311300785868.jpg (578×800)] ..... hopefully you will see this. Anyway, notice how it is a scar made of objects and things from Harry's World. Well, I thought "How cool would it be if each small image would link onto a page on the HP wiki!" And that's when I began to Owl you. Anyway, if there is a way of doing this, we should get on it right away, cuse honestly, it would be AMAZING!!

Firstoff..hello. Second, congratulations on being made an administrator here on the Harry Potter Wiki.

==TheBoneSeason==

Hey, Professor Tofty! Have you heard of ''The Bone Season''? It is a great new YA dystopian book series with some aspects along the same veins as ''Harry Potter'' (but with a few key differences) that you might find interesting. You can get more information about Bone Season [http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13636400-the-bone-season here]. The publishers are actually offering us some copies to give to avid readers active on book wikis that would be interested, and you came to mind!

Hey, I looked at [[Template:Individual infobox]]. <code><nowiki>{{{{{{2|name}}}}}}
−
</nowiki></code> should be replaced with either:
−
*<code><nowiki>{{{name|{{PAGENAME}}}}}</nowiki></code> - uses the page's name if no <code>name</code> parameter is used. This is standard practice.
−
or
−
*<code><nowiki>{{{name|}}}</nowiki></code> - uses just the <code>name</code> parameter.

May I inquire about the reasoning behind this detail?

Hi Professor.

The infoboxes on the Potter Dictionary ([http://potter-dictionary.wikia.com/wiki/Template%3AIndividual_infobox this one], actually) have been expanding to fit the writing within them, so that a certain amount of text put in could make it spread across the whole page.

==FiniteIncantatemMerge==
+
Hellothere.I'mnewhere and I wanted to know if there was anything to do around here. Hunnie Bunn told me to contact you about it. ~
−
I have merged ''[[Finite Incantatem]]'' with [[General Counter-Spell]] for the following reasons:
−
#They have the exact same effect.
−
#General Counterspell was released with the second book on Pottermore, while Finite Incantatem was first shown in that same book.
−
#The length of the incantation matches the time it would take for one to move their wand as shown for the wand motion of the General Counter-Spell.
−
#GCS has an image on Pottermore, while Finite Incantatem doesn't - and Finite Incantatem is the only one without a wand motion.
Firstly, I would like to apologize for the trouble I've given you.
−
However, my second point is that the way I was taught to make a merge was to copy all the information from one page, redirect the page you took the content from to the new page, and then incorporate both sets of info into a new article.
−
I did so - you can see on [[General Counter-Spell]].
−
However, I do agree that we ought to have a nice proper discussion on the topic first, something I should have waited for. --'''<span style="font-size:9pt;line-height:0.56cm;">[[User:Hunnie Bunn|<font face="Chiller" size="6" color="#56LL99">Hunniebunn</font>]] ([[User talk:Hunnie Bunn|<font face="Chiller" size="5" color="#56LL99">Talk</font>]])''' 01:09, November 1, 2012 (UTC)

Hi. I was wanting to know if one page I was considering creating is article worthy. I don't think it is, seeing as it is only based on a grey feather, which most likely came from an owl.

It was an image I came across on Pottermore. I was putting images of the bertie bott's beans up on the appropriate page, so I had to look through the 'trunk area' on pottermore where the images were loacted, and I just came across the feather which I must have 'picked up' from a scene at some point.

I like the end line of the video very much but I don't want to tell too much when you perhaps have not seen yet. That's interesting that the Remembrance Day in Canada is the same as your U.S. Veteran's Day. You knew it without knowing that you knew it. Different names - same theme. <span style="border:1px solid #E56717;">[[User:Harry granger|<font style="background:#F75D59;color:gold;"> '''Harry granger''' </font>]][[User talk:Harry granger|<font style="background:yellow;color:black;"> ''' Talk '''</font>]]<font style="background:yellow;color:;"> [[Special:Contributions/Harry granger|<font style="background: #99CCFF;color:#993300;"> '''contribs''']] </font style></font></span> 22:37, November 9, 2012 (UTC)

:Thereisnothinginthe game proper (the parts that I have seen thus far, that is) that says that the ''Book of Spells'' is 200-years-old (when you are introduced to it, it is covered in dust,andit is mentioned that it is "veryold", but nothing more). There is an event (I'm earnestly trying not to spoil you, here) mentioned to have happened in 1779, and the text refers to the late 18th century as "relativelyrecently in wizarding history" --I wouldn't think a book would refer to something that happened a mere twenty years ago as "''relatively''recent", instead choosing the word "contemporaneously", but perhaps that's justme.

:My possible explanations are: the "200-year-old-book-thing" was something that the game developers/producers had in mind when creating the look and feel of the game, but did not treat that as rock-solid fact (out-of-universe explanation); or, that the game is set sometime after 2121 (in-universe explanation). -- <small><span style="border:2px solid #333333;">[[User:Seth Cooper|<font style="color:#333333;"> '''Seth Cooper''' </font>]][[User talk:Seth Cooper|<font style="background:#333333;color:white;"> '''owl post!'''</font>]]</span></small> 16:34, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

: I don't honestly see how it hurts anything, but I understand that if it is policy, then yes. And I would have appreciated it if someone would've told me that it needed deleting, because I didn't want to lose everything I had already done. My point of doing this however is to help my and possibly others understanding of what is book and what is film or game. I do respect that it is Policy, so I won't argue, but I think letting me know would have been a nice thing to do, cause no one wants there work tarnished, know what I mean?

Hi Professor. I see there's been a number of users over the time this wiki has existed who have been taking things waay too personally, or who have made personal attacks. I was thinking of making a template, like: "Chill out, dude! You're taking everything way too seriously. Please calm down." with a little red hand on the left. What do you think? --HunnieBunn 01:15, March 12, 2013 (UTC)
I like your idea better. So, I suppose I'd best get started. --HunnieBunn 01:33, March 12, 2013 (UTC)
Admittedly, it is a copy-and-paste of what you wrote on my talk page, but all the same: here it is. The code to produce it is {{Temper}} (not too sure if that's the best name for it). And sure, that shouldn't be too difficult (for the QotW).
PS: Have you ever heard this song? My best friend's uncle is the lead singer. And I find the song quite calming (nothing personal, of course) --HunnieBunn 01:43, March 12, 2013 (UTC)
No problem, and sorry about not changing the headers - I'd wondered what they were for. And glad you liked the song; admittedly, though, your tune is quite relaxing - additionally, it has a nice rhythm to it. --HunnieBunn 13:13, March 12, 2013 (UTC)
Hi, after I read about your "relaxing songs" I was curious and heard them both. I like them both. Yours is very meditative. This song I could hear for hours, days, weeks, but the other I like, too. Harry granger Talk contribs 16:24, March 12, 2013 (UTC)
Thank you for the new songs. When I've found them AND get again access to another computer like today I will try them. My own computer loudspeakers have said good-bye, so I need another. Harry granger Talk contribs 18:32, March 12, 2013 (UTC)
Hi, I've heard now "To Zanarkand" and one of "Rikku's Theme"s. They are both wonderful. I like this music, too. It is really relaxing, that's right. Thank you for the advice. Harry granger Talk contribs 16:14, March 14, 2013 (UTC)
Sorry, I forgot to respond the first time. Yes, I think it would be a good idea to put the song in with the template... but would the coding carry it properly? I don't trust computers and coding and such things too well. --HunnieBunn 18:23, March 13, 2013 (UTC)
I like it, actually. It was surprising how well the calming melody went with the professional tone of the warning message. --HunnieBunn 18:32, March 13, 2013 (UTC)
Hey, that's a classic melody to Template:Temper. Wonderful! Harry granger Talk contribs 16:18, March 14, 2013 (UTC)
And I had another question. Have you seen the third film (I don't want to give too many spoilers)? --HunnieBunn 18:32, March 13, 2013 (UTC)
Just wondering, what did you think when you saw the scene on the bridge? With Lupin talking about Lily? --HunnieBunn 18:47, March 13, 2013 (UTC)
That's true; there was indeed quite a bit of "good stuff" in the films (especially, methinks, in the third one). I agree with most of what you said, but Rowling said Sirius was "unhinged" - he saw his best friend in pain, not a feral monster getting ready to shred everyone apart. I don't blame him for his actions, even if perhaps they weren't the most sensible.
As for the bridge scene, I'll admit the "Your mother was there for me at a time when no one else was. Not only was she a singularly gifted witch, she was also an uncommonly kind woman. She had a way of seeing the beauty in others even, and perhaps most especially, when that person couldn't see it in themselves" line(s) kind of reminded me of the "Lupin was very fond of Lily" line, and I have to wonder whether J. K. Rowling will expand on this in Lupin's biography. --HunnieBunn 19:06, March 13, 2013 (UTC)
Well, we did get the info on Aunt Marge, the Knight Bus and Cadogan, as well as Professor Kettleburn in the first set of chapters. But all the same, there are twenty-two chapters in the book, and there's an illustration from the fourteenth one in there which means we'll be getting at least six chapters. Leaving eight chapters after that, and a whole biography. So hopefully they'll come out soon.
Do you have an estimate as to when you think they'll be released? It's been around two months (now I stop to think about it, closer to three) so probably soon. I'm guessing the twentieth if we're lucky (because it's usually around the end of the month) and April 12 if we aren't (because it's normally on a Friday that they're released). --HunnieBunn 20:19, March 13, 2013 (UTC)
It wouldn't be half as aggravating if they would update the Insider to let us know what they're up to or something. Last we heard was a couple of weeks ago when they improved the comments, and I don't understand the way people will sign comments with names that have nothing to do with themselves or their friends... Oh well, it's only the 13th. Hopefully some change will come soon. --HunnieBunn 20:29, March 13, 2013 (UTC)
Hi, I don't know if BachLynn is online and reads this, so I thought I tell you. Look this here. That could be a critical situation. Harry granger Talk contribs 17:11, March 14, 2013 (UTC)
Chapters eight to fifteen will be released either in eleven days or by the end of the month :) Trivia questions regarding said chapters will be posted at noon EST on the Insider daily starting tomorrow. --HunnieBunn 18:38, March 14, 2013 (UTC)
Glad to be of help. I'm thinking it'll be twelve days till the new chapters come out, seeing how they'll be going for ten days starting tomorrow, and then they'll be keeping the answers secret until after. Now I'm just trying to get through all that by tomorrow morning (shouldn't be too hard, it's only seven chapters). --HunnieBunn 19:00, March 14, 2013 (UTC)
I believe this edit was the source of the problem, so I've reverted it and deleted the categories.
While we're on the subject, I think at some point we need to have a discussion about notability and standards for categories too. Some of the ones we have now seem ridiculously over-specific and/or redundant. Case in point, right now there are Category:Dragons, Category:Dragons (species), and Category:Individual dragons. I'm probably going to go ahead and consolidate them into just "Dragons" and delete the other two.
Hi Professor. Just wondered whether you could please rename Rubeus Hagrid's cabin to "Hagrid's Hut" as it is referred as such in Pottermore, the most recent canon source. Thanks. --HunnieBunn 20:19, March 16, 2013 (UTC)
Well, I'd assumed "HAGRID'S WOODEN HOUSE" was from the line "Hagrid, you live in a wooden house". --HunnieBunn 21:07, March 16, 2013 (UTC)
The line was from the first book, the "HAGRID'S WOODEN HOUSE" title was for a moment from that same book (and I think from that same chapter) and therefore the two go together:) --HunnieBunn 22:24, March 16, 2013 (UTC)
Thank you :)--HunnieBunn 13:16, March 17, 2013 (UTC)
Hi Professor. It's been two months (actually, I think three) since the last Time-Turner article (the only two are Moldyshorts and Harry). I already have one for Dumbledore ready if you want, coding and everything are done. However, if you have an idea of your own I think that would be good. So I suppose come morning we'll see how things turn out, hopefully it's all good :) --Am I annoying you yet?If not, let me know when I am. 01:51, March 18, 2013 (UTC)
Hello Professor. I wondered a few things: first, whether you had this PlayStation Home. And second, whether you'd noticed the hint dropped here that the next Pottermore release will be sooner than we think ;) . Surely if it was in April they'd have said "in the coming months" instead of "the coming weeks"? --Am I annoying you yet?If not, let me know when I am. 00:52, March 19, 2013 (UTC)
I was fixing the notes on Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (film) to be more in line with their correct book chapter. If you look at the coverage I did with my book for the Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban page, then it can help with that task. I am only contacting you since my edit was reverted along with the edit of that bad IP User's bad edit.-Adv193 (talk) 19:32, March 19, 2013 (UTC)
Okay there is a small update and another note I am going to divide up into there proper chapters that I have to do. Also I dealt with that kind of problem before by carefully tracking the update and copy and pasted the correct stuff before posting to avoid conflicting with good faith edits just as long as it is not too complicated. -Adv193 (talk) 20:13, March 19, 2013 (UTC)
Yes, it does seem a bit sad that Harry, Hermione and Neville had to suffer because Hagrid couldn't confess. I agree that Hagrid could have given himself up, but if I remember correctly the punishment for owning a dragon egg is Azkaban. And Hagrid started crying just thinking of that horrible place.
What made me lose a lot of respect for Hagrid was when he said "An' it's your bad luck you grew up a family o' the biggest Muggles I've ever laid eyes on". Saying that Harry had bad luck living with a big family of Muggles seemed like a bit of a slap in the face - like Muggles are bad. It went against the whole theme of the last two or three books. --Am I annoying you yet?If not, let me know when I am. 19:47, March 20, 2013 (UTC)
True, he could have put in a kind word or two - but for inviting them to his cabin, he was a gamekeeper, and had quite a few duties even if they weren't mentioned. --Am I annoying you yet?If not, let me know when I am. 21:10, March 20, 2013 (UTC)
Hey Professor Tofty, while searching the web one day, I happend to stumble upon this picture - m_1311300785868.jpg (578×800) ..... hopefully you will see this. Anyway, notice how it is a scar made of objects and things from Harry's World. Well, I thought "How cool would it be if each small image would link onto a page on the HP wiki!" And that's when I began to Owl you. Anyway, if there is a way of doing this, we should get on it right away, cuse honestly, it would be AMAZING!! Let me know Colin687
Hey, Professor Tofty! Have you heard of The Bone Season? It is a great new YA dystopian book series with some aspects along the same veins as Harry Potter (but with a few key differences) that you might find interesting. You can get more information about Bone Season here. The publishers are actually offering us some copies to give to avid readers active on book wikis that would be interested, and you came to mind!
It would be awesome to get a read on what you thought of the book and if we could get a great community going on wikis based on it. The Bone Season is already getting optioned for a film even though it hasn't been published yet, so you would be getting your hands on one of the first copies! We'd love for you to read it, so if you email me your address and name, we'd be happy to send the book along. Let me know :)
...would you by any chance know where in Ontario a person could find a copy of any of the last three films (or all three) for under one hundred dollars, that weren't blu-ray copies? I've been searching but can't find any, and you seem to have some experience in the whole advertising thing, so I figured if there was anyone to ask it'd be you. --Hunnie Bunn (talk) 01:24, April 17, 2013 (UTC)

The infobox on the Trio (plus one, if you include Ginny Weasley)'s pages, states they're all married, wich is true only for the two or three pages of the Epilogue. For the rest of the series (virtually the whole of it), they're not.
May I inquire about the reasoning behind this detail? Personally, I'd change their marital status to unmarried, perhaps with a second line stating that by the epilogue it was upgraded, should this modification stand a chance to survive scrutiny. MinorStoop 10:38, April 21, 2013 (UTC)

I can't remember if I'd already asked for help, but since it seems I haven't... earlier this month or late last month I asked Grunny for help and there's been no answer, and Nick O'Demus doesn't know what's up with it either so I figured I'd ask you. The infoboxes on the Potter Dictionary (this one, actually) have been expanding to fit the writing within them, so that a certain amount of text put in could make it spread across the whole page. I wondered if you knew a solution? Thanks :) --Hunnie Bunn (talk) 00:12, April 27, 2013 (UTC)
Oh well, thanks for trying :) --Hunnie Bunn (talk) 00:47, April 27, 2013 (UTC)
I'm glad you approve; could you please do the blog thing? I'm not too good at that sort of thing, personally... Thanks. --Hunnie Bunn (talk) 18:49, April 27, 2013 (UTC)
... if, when you see this, you could please rename Hair-Loss Curse back to "Hair Loss Curse", which is what it should be at per the Raincoast/Bloomsbury edition of the book. Thanks :) --Hunnie Bunn (talk) 00:16, April 28, 2013 (UTC)
I also wondered if you wanted admin/bureaucrat rights on the Potter Dictionary Wiki, they're available too... I know you'll be spending most wiki-time on your already working-on wikis, but we need another admin for when there is only one. I also am asking Nick O'Demus so that either one or both of you will be there (hopefully) as admins/bureaucrats. --Hunnie Bunn (talk) 13:25, April 28, 2013 (UTC)
Do you know of anyone who could? I won't be on at all next weekend, or anytime throughout June, and I didn't want to leave Harry granger as the only admin, or indeed the only user. However, I understand why you're declining... just wondered if you knew of a willing applicant. --Hunnie Bunn (talk) 00:44, April 29, 2013 (UTC)
Hello professor, I am not really good at editing so I was just wondering if there is anything that maybe I could focus on to get better. If there is could you please tell me? Sorry for my troubling questions!minicurls the awesome (talk) 00:03, May 1, 2013 (UTC)
Oh I was also wondering if I could do an article about a song on Youtube created by fans of Harry Potter called Harry Potter in 99 seconds? I wanted to ask you so I don't break any policies.minicurls the awesome (talk) 22:00, May 3, 2013 (UTC)
Hello. My name is Nic and I'm from the Community Development Team. As you may or may not have heard, we recently released an application called My Wikia. We are hoping to bring this app to the attention of more people and for this reason could use some cooperation with this Wiki. We are hoping that you will allow us to display this Template in the upper-right hand column on your wiki. If you are fine with us displaying this, please let me know. Thanks. - Wagnike2 (talk) 14:19, May 6, 2013 (UTC)
Hi professor. Just thought I'd let you know, this IP has repeatedly vandalised pages and been warned about it, with no change whatsoever to their behaviour. --Hunnie Bunn (talk) 21:19, May 10, 2013 (UTC)
This IP 75.118.114.31 to whom you sent a warning to has once again vandalised Hagrid's page. At this point I would suggest an additional warning or a block. I trust you can make a good decision. -Adv193 (talk) 05:26, May 15, 2013 (UTC)
Hey Professor... Just figured I'd let you know, there are no periods in the British/Canadian editions of the books, no dots. Therefore, "Mrs Norris" is correct as opposed to "Mrs. Norris", or so it should be as we use British spelling/grammar. --Hunnie Bunn (talk) 00:06, May 16, 2013 (UTC)
Also, I know you'd probably already seen, but I figured I'd let you know, as an admin yourself, that Minicurls has requested admin status. I figured it'd speed up the process. --Hunnie Bunn (talk) 00:10, May 16, 2013 (UTC)
True, I suppose... it's up to you. --Hunnie Bunn (talk) 00:16, May 16, 2013 (UTC)
So... Danniesen has asked for another chance and once again I figured I'd ask your opinion. Personally, I think a... whatever chance this is on, I think a final opportunity should be given for him. Let him back, one mistake and he's off for good, but maybe over time he would help out, build back lost credit over a time period of months or maybe years. Yes, he has been given literally a hundred or so warnings, and yes it is supposed to be permanent, but I still think one last shot couldn't hurt too bad. --Hunnie Bunn (talk) 19:16, May 18, 2013 (UTC)
I just figured I'd ask your opinion before I started a forum on it, because if you were opposed to it chances were the others would be as well. The forum, just in case, is here. --Hunnie Bunn (talk) 19:55, May 18, 2013 (UTC)
I somehow forgot to mention earlier, but Harry granger and I think that Potterpedia, accepting all Rowling facts, should include not only the ten books but also Wonderbook and Pottermore, which both have writing directly from Rowling. --Hunnie Bunn (talk) 00:04, May 19, 2013 (UTC)
Righty-o, just figured we'd get the two thumbs up and make sure everyone was on the same page before we started making additions. --Hunnie Bunn (talk) 01:29, May 19, 2013 (UTC)
"A grey owl was soaring down towards Hermione.'It hasn't got a newsaper, though,' she said, looking disappointed. 'It's-' But to her bewilderment, the grey owl landed in front of her plate, closely followed by four barn owls, a brown owl and a tawny." (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire - Chapter 28 (The Madness of Mr Crouch)) --Hunnie Bunn (talk) 04:00, May 20, 2013 (UTC)
Either one 'gray' or 'grey' is acceptable in British English :) --Hunnie Bunn (talk) 04:07, May 20, 2013 (UTC)
I agree... It basically means the same, like "bike" and "bicycle". --DCLM (talk) 10:18, May 21, 2013 (UTC)
Hm... actually, I stand corrected. According to my UK spell-check, "gray" is spelled incorrectly. This happens on Microsoft Word, Google Chrome and Internet Explorer. As well, "gray" is never used in the British or Canadian books. Sorry. --Hunnie Bunn (talk) 22:47, May 23, 2013 (UTC)
Sorry to bother you but on Behind the Scenes for Albus Dumbledore the word early is not spelled right like ealy.Since the page is protected I can't fix it. If you have the permission could you check on that please?minicurls the awesome (talk) 01:14, May 29, 2013 (UTC)
Hi. Having made three wikis, two of which I run alone, I was wondering what the recommended criteria for administrator status be - I mean, what would a user have to do for me to grant them admin status? Is there any specific set guidelines? What is the criteria here on the HPW? --Hunnie Bunn (talk) 23:58, June 8, 2013 (UTC)
Okay, thanks Professor. --Hunnie Bunn (talk) 01:02, June 9, 2013 (UTC)
RE: Your image addition to the Dudley Dursley pageEdit
That page did nothing but confuse me. HELP! HarryPotterRules1 (talk) 02:10, June 10, 2013 (UTC)
Thank you. It's 03:27am here and I'm shattered; I'll re-add the picture tomorrow as I'm off to bed. HarryPotterRules1 (talk) 02:27, June 10, 2013 (UTC)
I'm guessing you'll have seen it here on the wiki, but have you heard elsewhere of the upcoming Wonderbook: Book of Potions? --Hunnie Bunn (talk) 23:03, June 11, 2013 (UTC)
No problem, I just figured that because of your experience in... wasn't it sales that you had experience in? I remember you mentioned it back when Book of Spells came out... anyways, I thought maybe you'd heard something. Oh well, it's more fun waiting and seeing anyways :D --Hunnie Bunn (talk) 23:28, June 11, 2013 (UTC)
Is it fine then if I keep the page in my sandbox? Colin687
18:40, June 16, 2013 (UTC)
I don't honestly see how it hurts anything, but I understand that if it is policy, then yes. And I would have appreciated it if someone would've told me that it needed deleting, because I didn't want to lose everything I had already done. My point of doing this however is to help my and possibly others understanding of what is book and what is film or game. I do respect that it is Policy, so I won't argue, but I think letting me know would have been a nice thing to do, cause no one wants there work tarnished, know what I mean? Anyway, I'll keep it in my sandbox, and thank-you for owling me :) Colin687
Thank you for the information. That I did not know. I have not deleted anything. I thought it would be better to ask before and now I see, I was right. :-) Thanks again. Harry granger Talk contribs 07:09, June 17, 2013 (UTC)
there is a disagreement between Danniesen and me about the Known members section of this page. I think that if it has to be about "known members", then only Lucius Malfoy belongs there. Danniesen insists that both Malfoy's substitute and the other eleven members have a place in it, yet no name, history or other data for them are given, not in the books, not in the movies, I wouldn't know about the games.
Any suggestion on how to get out of this impasse? Thanks! MinorStoop 12:23, June 18, 2013 (UTC)
We need to know before it get out of hand. --DCLM (talk) 12:35, June 18, 2013 (UTC)
