[edit] Structure of the article

Should the "Information from JK Rowling" section come under "Background to the series"? Could the Background Knowledge be renamed to Plot or storyline or something similar or the Information from JK be moved to its own section? 0L1 Talk Contribs 21:28 8/11/2006 (UTC)

As I got no reply, I've edited the titles. 0L1 Talk Contribs 11:05 19/11/2006 (UTC)
Not really. Information from rowlings is fore-knowledge, not background knowledge. It is things she has said about what will be in it. Background is about general info relating to all the books, particularly the existing ones.

[edit] References spoiler

One of the references it titled "Dumbledore definitely dead". Should a spoiler tag be added, or the title changed (although it is the title of the web page)? 0L1 Talk Contribs 20:41 23/11/2006 (UTC)

No, leave it. Anyone reading the references at the bottom of the page ought reasonably to expect to discover things, but I don't think this article should get too hung up on spoiler warnings. Who reads right through an article about a forthcoming book unless they want to know what is in it, and know what is in the earlier ones? Sandpiper 23:12, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
You're right - I was comparing it to: '"[He who died in book six] definitely dead" says Rowling', but the name was removed from the external website, rather than from the Wikipedia cite title. 0L1 Talk Contribs 16:36 1/12/2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism?

At the end of the first paragraph, it says:

<!-- LEAVE THIS COMMENT IN HERE! -->

I have removed this, but if it serves a purpose, then please revert my edit. 0L1 Talk Contribs 16:55 1/12/2006 (UTC)

[edit] Flitwick???

Where does it 'suggest' Flitwick will be deputy headmaster? Kochdude388 14:22, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Nowhere. It's just more fancrap. Doc Sigma (wait, what?) 15:06, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Secret of Godric

Source it or prepare to be terminated -er- reverted. Kochdude388 23:02, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

I deleted it. Until someone can put a source, that title is just a rumor. WIKI-GUY-16, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] verylong template

I just reverted the removal of practically everything except the first paragraph in each section. Someone either vandalizing or attempting to shorten the article. Sorry if I'm treading on anyone's toes with this. Daggoth S 04:21, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 7/7/7 release

I see someone keeps adding that potential date and the signficance it has. While an interesting idea, it is all original research and speculation. And until it can be proved to be anything other than that, do not add it. 199.126.137.209 09:56, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Weasel words?

Sorry to make another post, but I couldn't help but notice the constant use of "it is expected". Unfortunately, that falls under weasel words, unless sources are provided (NOTEWORTHY sources!). 199.126.137.209 10:00, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
