Another JKR Update
November 1st, 2007 — What's New from John @ The Harry Potter Lexicon » What's New
Rowling has updated her site with another new news item today. She has handwritten seven leather-bound editions of The Tales of Beedle the Bard, six of which she plans to give as ‘thank-you’ gifts to those who have helped her most, and the seventh of which she will auction off next month for charity.
Unfortunately, there’s [...]
The Burrow
October 19th, 2007 — What's New from John @ The Harry Potter Lexicon » What's New
So after a fairly lengthy morning of in-depth research and writing, I have now completely re-vamped our page for the Burrow. Among other things, I determined what floor each room had to fall on, and organized the page accordingly. The explanation for why the floors line up the way they do is fairly lengthy, so [...]
Three more updated pages
October 17th, 2007 — What's New from John @ The Harry Potter Lexicon » What's New
Just finished three more updates, of various scopes and sizes:
1. St. Mungo’s Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries, for which I rewrote the entry, greatly expanded the lists of staff and patients, and added a list (albeit a short one) for donors;
2. The Leaky Cauldron, for which I rewrote the entry and expanded the list [...]
New Hogsmeade Page
October 12th, 2007 — What's New from John @ The Harry Potter Lexicon » What's New
As promised, we now have a completely re-worked and updated Hogsmeade page as well. I also created a new detailed list of all the secret passages between Hogsmeade and Hogwarts - something we hadn’t done before. Enjoy!
Gazetteer up-to-date!
October 11th, 2007 — What's New from John @ The Harry Potter Lexicon » What's New
Okay, my turn!
The Gazetteer pages are now completely up-to-date with the last book, except for a few destination pages (like the Leaky Cauldron and Hogsmeade, which I’m working on now). We didn’t have a lot of big or important new places, aside from Shell Cottage and maybe Nurmengard, but trying to list all the places [...]
More places!
August 2nd, 2007 — What's New from John @ The Harry Potter Lexicon
I’ve been accumulating lots of new additions - working on getting the gazetteer up to speed and updated with our new layout! Here’s some of the stuff I’ve added:
A completely rewritten page for Gringotts;
A new Hog’s Head page;
An updated entry for Albania;
A new entry for Arkie Alderton’s Kwik-Repair Shop, which Jo told us about in [...]
Two re-worked pages
July 25th, 2007 — What's New from John @ The Harry Potter Lexicon
Again, lots of changes being made site-wide today. I enjoy clicking on the character pages especially and seeing the people Lisa has added in. But I wanted to post two big page overhauls I did for places: Godric’s Hollow and the Malfoy Mansion.
On a side note, thanks so much to everyone who’s helped us perfect [...]
Deathly Hallows
July 23rd, 2007 — What's New from John @ The Harry Potter Lexicon
We’ve been doing lots of work around the site today, as you’ve probably noticed if you’ve looked around.
One bigger thing I’ve put together: a page about the Deathly Hallows. Enjoy!
DH Day-to-day calendar
July 22nd, 2007 — What's New from John @ The Harry Potter Lexicon
Oh. My. Goodness.
We here at the Lexicon have been e-mailing back and forth in total shock and awe over Deathly Hallows. Jo, we can’t thank you enough for this incredible gift.
We also, of course, are excited to throw our full collective energy into site updates. Meaning that spoilers will soon abound - if you haven’t [...]
The door is open
July 20th, 2007 — What's New from John @ The Harry Potter Lexicon
The door on jkrowling.com is open once more - this time with a list of acknowledgements for all the wonderful people who helped her through writing the books. Thanks to everyone from us here at the Lexicon, too!
No magic is needed to open the door.
