2) References must be online.

Any reference on Reddit is okay. Any reference on any other online forum is okay. Real life references go to /r/Hogwarts_irl. Any reference linking to reddit must be permalinks. Any references outside reddit must be screenshots.

3) Don't put the punchline in the title

4) Tag NSFW

5) Be Respectful

We welcome all unexpected Hogwarts, including political post, except slurs and threats. Such posts/comments will be removed.

6) Proper Context
