Re:Snape
Snape was on the good side: When Snape revealed the prophecy made by Sybill Trelawney (not knowing, at first, that it was referring to Lily and her family) to Voldemort, Voldemort decided to attack the Potters in an attempt to prevent its fulfilment. Though he asked Voldemort to spare Lily (whom he loved), Snape, still fearing for her safety, went to Dumbledore and begged him to protect the Potters. Dumbledore agreed and ensured that they were placed under the Fidelius Charm. In return, Snape became a triple agent for the Order of the Phoenix against Voldemort, using his powers of Occlumency to hide his betrayal from Voldemort. Even with his efforts to protect her, Snape felt responsible for Lily's death when the Fidelius charm was broken. Despite Harry's strong resemblance to James Potter, the fact that he was Lily's son made Snape protect him throughout the series. Snape demanded of Dumbledore, however, that his love for Lily, his reason for switching sides, be kept a secret. Dumbledore agreed and kept the secret.

In the summer between Order of the Phoenix and Half-Blood Prince, Dumbledore is afflicted by a powerful curse cast on the Gaunt ring, one of Voldemort's Horcruxes. Although Snape's knowledge of the Dark Arts enabled him to slow the spread of the curse, the curse would have ultimately killed Dumbledore within a year. Dumbledore, aware that Voldemort had ordered Draco to kill him, asked Snape to kill him instead as a way of sparing the boy's soul and of preventing his otherwise slow, painful death. Although Snape was reluctant, even asking about the impact of such an action on his own soul, Dumbledore implied that this kind of mercy-killing or killing "by request" would not damage a human's soul in the same way murder would. Snape simply agreed to do as the Headmaster requested. -- Seth Cooper  (Owl Post ) 21:04, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

Runcorn
The information you are adding to Runcorn actually refers to Albert Runcorn, which is a different person.-- Matoro 183 (Talk) 16:10, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

You can place links to different pages on the Wikia by putting brackets around the word that you want example Ginny Weasly after brackets Ginny Weasly you must use. also for out of the wiki the editing tips at the top when you open the page to edit will show different ways. example  [ http://www.example.com link title. Hope that helps. --Profiteor Ravenclawcrest.jpg(Owl Me ) 17:55, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

RE:Links
To add internal links, place where you want it to link to between two sets of brackets. E.g. to produce Harry Potter, do Harry Potter

If you want the link to say something add a pipe between the link and what you want to appear on the page. E.g. to produce a link to this simply do this --  Seth Cooper  owl post! 18:02, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Re:Info Tables

 * Those "info tables" are actually called infoboxes. This is the blank template:


 * To fill it in simply add the information in front of the equal signs, like this: |blood=Half-blood.
 * Hope I have helped you. --  Seth Cooper  owl post! 14:47, 18 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Here's the page with the various infobox templates. Just choose which color you want (there are examples on each page), copy the text from there and paste it on your user page. Any sections you don't want to show up, just leave them blank (with the 'equal' sign on the right).


 * Category:Infobox_templates


 * Nick O&#39;Demus 14:55, 18 July 2009 (UTC)


 * To add an image, simply put the link to the image, and next to it a pipe, followed by the number of pixels.

Prefects
That had nothing to do with Prefects. That was about an event that occurred in the Prefects' bathroom, but it wasn't about Prefects, so it doesn't belong in that article.-- Matoro 183 (Talk) 20:17, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

Re:Prefect badge
Just check the Award Policy. It's all explained there. --  Seth Cooper  owl post! 20:45, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

Re:Delete
Because that quote had nothing to do with merpeople. It could describe the nature of the 2nd task, it could show Harry Potter's loyalty to his friends, but says nothing of merpeople. --  Seth Cooper  owl post! 16:37, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

Re: points
That's the number of characters added (+) or removed (-) to the article in question. --  Seth Cooper  owl post! 17:58, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

RE: Advanced Signature
I'm probably not the best one making a signature I'll show you mine but I'm not very great at explaining on how to make it. I'd suggest talking to Seth Cooper or Matoro183. They have always done a brilliant job with there signatures. --<font face="Monotype Corsiva" size="4" color="Black">Profiteor (<font face="Times" color="Red">Owl Me ) 18:44, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

thanks i will ask Seth now --Bongo2009 18:46, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

Re:Last question

 * 1) Create a template page in your userspace. The title of this page should be based on your username, so your template page would be User:Bongo2009/sig.
 * 2) Add HMTL or wiki markup to your template page to create the look you want.
 * 3) Go to your preferences page (Special:Preferences/Bongo2009)
 * 4) Enter the code "" in the signature field.
 * 5) Check the "custom signature" box directly below the signature field.
 * 6) Click the "save" button.

Let me know if you need help with the HMTL/wiki markup. -- <font style="color:#333333;"> Seth Cooper <font style="background:#333333;color:white;"> owl post! 18:52, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
