That Powerups topic was a lot of fun to write and organize.

I went looking and found a few theories that are due to expire in a month or less:

I don't think there are any duplicates with what has already been posted. I just went looking for any old threads I could find that the OP postulated a theory with any sort of references to the books for evidence.
I leave it to the curators to decide if any of them have merit.

I'm looking through them. I will comment on these as topics that should be shelved to avoid their autodeletion until we set up the official process to decide if they belong in the reference section.
I think most might be worth shelving until we can sift them through the eventual "official process." Criteria I am giving weight to are:
* The OP actually making interesting/supported conclusions (Theories) that invoke discussion. T
* The OP consolidating enough info about the intended subject to make the topic a good reference for others that might want to make conclusions (R)
* Formatting (F)
* Discussion in follow up posts (D)
Actually, this just got me thinking. When this reference board is born, I expect there to be an index sticky. Incorporated into the index, there could be a brief review of each theory done by the curators (possibly with input from anyone else) along these lines: 6T, 4R, 4F, 2D Where the number is a scale from 1 to 10 and T, R, F, and D are described above. We could even have multiple curator reviews on the same topic that are color coded based on which curator contributed them (or if they are croud sourced, which could also have an incorporated link to the source). This might even encourage OP's to increase their Formatting score, or allow others to contribute formating edits that they incorporate. The "D" score is intended to let a potential viewer know how important following up on the pages of discussion might be. Curators might add links to the end of the OP to significant posts in the replies section.
It should be mentioned that many great OP's that deserve to be in the reference section will have either a low "T score" or "R score" by their very nature.
Origins of the Three Eye drug. 3T, 1R, 1F, ?D
Harry and chaos (Spoilers plus a theory) 3T, 5R, 5F, 2?D
Who told Monica Sells? 5T, 4R, 4F, 5?D
Timeline for Changes 1T, 6R, 4F, 1D
Topics that you think are a /big deal/ (reference thread) most of these links are dead. don't archive this, I have what I need from it already archived (It's my topic).
The Answer(hopefully) to Who Fixed Little Chicago Archive this! I'll review it later.
Discontinuity = clue? [GS sample ch spoilers] This has lost a lot of it's significance post GS release. I will probably personally archive it tomorrow, with the intent of possibly making a seperate reference topic of all the identified apparent "discontinuities" as long as I can do it in a way that doesn't set Shecky off like a yipping lap dog (tall order).
TYVM EMcB for doing this. I started doing this but got distracted by the urge to rewrite the Mouse Origin topic, and to write a topic encouraging actions like yours and encourage others to make new/revised theory/reference topics.
Priscellie:
Serack, you are amazing.
Temporarily shelving all indicated threads in the Display Case.
