Counter-curse for Leg-Locker Curse
Hello! In what gaming platform of the first video game does the Counter-curse for Leg-Locker Curse make an appearance? If you told me, I could see if I could get a picture for that article. Thanks! --  Seth Cooper  owl post! 23:02, September 4, 2015 (UTC)

PS2, Xbox, and GCN. Sorry about forgeting a cite if I did.

 * No, not at all. I just didn't remember and was trying to look around for a picture. Thanks! --  Seth Cooper  owl post! 14:58, September 5, 2015 (UTC)
 * Don't mention it.

Hello
I'm just gonna say that I will not be online anymore past 00:30 CET.

This is due to, ah, a long story on my side. I can tell you if you want to know if I see you, but until further notice I will probably not be online anymore past that time.

Cheers, and sorry! 민 태준 - 슈가 (Inconvenience me here!)

Sure thing. Thanks for letting me know

I'm around again! Oh, and you should respond on my talk page, otherwise I won't know if you responded or not.

See you! 민 태준 - 슈가 (Inconvenience me here!)

I seem to be safe
Oh god, I think I don't have a restriction on weekends... It might just be dragged on to, idk, 1am, maybe, but it seems to be okay!

I'm around rn, but you're Away. You coming around?

Update
If I'm still around in a sec, then I have no restriction on weekends. See you! 민 태준 - 슈가 (Inconvenience me here!)

Good night!
I'll be around till 00:00 CET tonight.

Still working out how to get full access again. Easiest way is probably to get a part-time job and buy my own access point xD

Have a good night's sleep! See you soon.

Hey
So, I'm online. And bored. Please join?

See you! Cheers, 민태준  -  슈가  ( Inconvenience me here! )

Hello
I saw you online an hour ago. I still have a good hour left, care to come on? I wanna take my mind of things, nobody is coming on and I feel better talking to people.

Notice
I'm just gonna say I might not be around much. There's this kid, Wikiatastic. I didn't get her banned the first time because it was too much trouble, but until she's gone from the chat this time I might lay off a bit, she's driving me nuts.

If she ever joins, don't answer. Don't even say "hi". Trust me.

Cheers! 민태준  -  슈가 ( Inconvenience me here! )

Vernon Dursley
Hi there, regarding the confusion with Vernon Dursley, it looks like someone vandalised the appearances section, simply with the year 1954 repeated several times. The references, are also currently non-existent in the references section. I cannot find who did this. It definitely needs fixing, which I can also help to do. Happy editing.

Past-tense
All in-universe articles are to be written in Past-tense. The policy is here: [//harrypotter.fandom.com/wiki/Harry_Potter_Wiki:Policy#Style https://harrypotter.fandom.com/wiki/Harry_Potter_Wiki:Policy#Style]

"Articles should be written in the past tense, as if the editor is writing from a point in the future after the events in the series have taken place. This is to maintain a consistent and uniform feel to the articles, and to eliminate ambiguity by switching tenses in the middle of an article."

The original vote is here: [//harrypotter.fandom.com/wiki/Forum:Past/Present_tense%3F https://harrypotter.fandom.com/wiki/Forum:Past/Present_tense%3F]

Please stop switching articles to present tense and go back and correct any articles that you've changed in this way. Thanks --Ironyak1 (talk) 21:56, February 14, 2019 (UTC)

This is not a galaxy far far away. In-universe, magic things are still happening. This is fine for things like biographies and battles and historical events, but when you read the sentence "Sandwiches WERE a type of food" that's when you know things are getting out of hand. I stand by what I said. JK Rowling herself writes in the present tense on Pottermore. Oerk (talk)


 * Of course, this is not Pottermore and we are not JKR. The past-tense policy has been long adopted for in-universe articles. This is a standing policy based on community consensus that all editors are required to to follow. Sandwich is of course a and has been written in the present-tense since its second edit in 2010. Please be sure to follow the Style Policy as it will be enforced. Thanks --Ironyak1 (talk) 22:17, February 14, 2019 (UTC)

A policy that is thankfully seldolm enforced, and for good reason: because it's terrible. Just because it is a policy does not mean it is a good approach to have. Quite the opposite in fact. Luckily, many prominent articles are written in present-tense, as they ought to, despite this wiki's policy. That's because the people who wrote them actually had a mind to have them make sense when read. I'm not going to link those articles, for fear of risking a pointless change of tense to past. I'm just glad that a majority of pages were written with some sense, rather than brainlessly following an outlandish policy. Maybe one day, this wiki stop having such a convoluted tense policy, where it does not treat every ordinary thing as though it was some ancient, historic thing that is long gone, when it so obviously isn't. But based on the mere fact that this policy has existed for so long, and plagued this wiki for that whole time unquestioningly, I seriously doubt it. Oerk (talk) 23:28, February 14, 2019 (UTC)

Concealment
Revealing spells and charms are not Concealment; Concealment is to conceal something obviously and Revealing is to remove the concealment, so it can't be concealed if it's revealed. IlvermornyWizard (talk) 06:59, February 22, 2019 (UTC) IlvermornyWizard

Ingredient infobox
Hi there. Wanted to check in with you about the new you've created to better understand the articles where it might apply. Is this just for Potions ingredients, or also for Food ingredients, and if so, aren't all Food ingredients also qualify for the ? I just want to make sure there is clarity as to how this new infobox fits with the current ones. Thanks --Ironyak1 (talk) 19:28, March 4, 2019 (UTC)

Hi there. I created the Ingredient infobox(formerly Potion ingredient infobox) to organize the plethora of articles on potion ingredients that tend to follow patterns. Here's how I apply the infobox:


 * Is the object ONLY a potion ingredient? If so, then use.
 * Is the object a potion ingredient, but also used in non-foodstuffs? (e.g. bezoars, unicorn hair) Then use.


 * Is the object consumed or used like a potion but not explicitly a potion? (e.g. Re'em blood) Then use.


 * Is the object a plant? Don't use


 * Is the object an animal? Don't use


 * Is the object DERIVED from a plant or animal? Then use.


 * Is the object used in foodstuffs, and isn't a plant or animal? I suppose it depends on whether or not it is used primarily in foodstuffs. If there are 5 potion articles that use, say for example, onion juice, but only 1 foodstuff article that uses onion juice, then I would use the ingredient infobox. If there are 5 foodstuff articles that used onion juice, but only 1 potion article that uses onion juice, I would use the food infobox.

Hope this helps!
