First things first: What differentiates HarryWiki.com from all the other fanfic sites out there?  By using [[wiki]], we’re seeing if fans can collectively write the seventh Harry Potter {{tag|Books|book}}.  Other sites will have chapters, or short stories, or even novel-length creations by one person or another.  HarryWiki, however, lets each visitor contribute to a growing story.

Some of you may jump around from chapter to chapter within the {{tag|Novels|novel}}, working on the arc of the story as a whole.  Others may take interest in writing particular chapters, getting into the detailed descriptions and hints that make the Harry Potter universe come alive.  Some may decide to write alternate versions of chapters and events that take the story in a new direction (leading, down the road, to multiple 'finished' novels on the site).  A few of you will undoubtedly spend your time tweaking and massaging what others have written, making connections and filling in gaps.  We've even thought of those who only want to write Quidditch matches and classroom scenes without trying to find an appropriate place for them in the novel.  Our Short Scene Repository will house brief snippets of text ripe for the picking and insertion into the novel by others.
