Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the covalent addition of a methyl group to the lysine at position 36 of histone H3. Any process that increases the rate, frequency, or extent of histone H3-K27 methylation. Histone H3-K27 methylation is the modification of histone H3 by addition of a methyl group to lysine at position 27 of the histone. The modification of histones by addition of methyl groups. The covalent alteration of one or more amino acid residues within a histone protein. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the covalent alteration of a histone. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the covalent alteration of a histone. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the covalent alteration of one or more amino acid residues within a protein. Any process that increases the frequency, rate or extent of a process involved in the formation, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of an organelle. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the covalent addition of methyl groups to histones. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the covalent addition of a methyl group to the lysine at position 9 of histone H3. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the covalent addition of a methyl group to the lysine at position 4 of histone H3. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the covalent addition of a methyl group to the lysine at position 20 of histone H4. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the covalent addition of methyl groups to histones. The addition of a methyl group to a protein amino acid. A methyl group is derived from methane by the removal of a hydrogen atom.
