capitalisations.

Okay, I swapped old ideas and I reserve the right to change my mind again. Still more importantly. What gets capitalised when? Do JKR's fictional words get capitalised? Auror? Muggle? Quidditch Stadium? Spells?

/too lazy to find a book.

LOL Depends which words you want. Auror, yes; Muggle, yes. I usually just go to Lexicon since I hate Wiki.

I don't think some of them should but the fandom community insists on it. I keep getting annoyed with Quidditch being capitalized because the way I see it, I wouldn't capitalize 'Football' all the time so I shouldn't have to capitalize a similar sport all the time. But the fandom (and probably English) has it rules so I abide.

The Lexicon is my go-to for all my plotting, query-type needs.

Hmm. I just searched the lexicon for quidditch and got nothing but links to its timeline page.

I may just write and hope to find a beta to sort it out.

I definitely see your point with the football comparison there!

took a glance at the lexicon, was confused. the wiki layout is far more familiar but does continually tell you about the video games like they matter.

This page?

Betas do help with that (sometimes). ;)

Maybe because I've been using the Lexicon long before the wiki was a thing but I find thr Lexicon so much more user friendly. The Lexicon is a bookmarked site on my browser.
