[edit] Addition under Marauder's map

I failed to understand the meaning of this addition...

  • I think it is just an extension of the description of that particular scene regarding the map, meaning that (during that scene): "Professor Snape also was confiscating the map to Harry, but Professor Lupin (just arrived on the scene) receives the map in his hands and promptly takes it with him (maybe avoiding that Snape could use it to investigate about the movements of someone), later giving it back to Harry.". Anyway, in my opinion, the addition does not seem important and could be deleted. Otherwise we could change by the above rewording. What about? 195.110.149.139 16:57, 13 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] VfD's

I've merged in the content from Put-Outer & Spellotape after closing the VfD's on those articles as Speedy Merges. Could someone more familiar with the books take a look at those entries and make sure they are in line with the rest of the page? -- Essjay · Talk 09:51, July 25, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Veratiserum

It's clear that Umbridge tries to give Harry Veratiserum by mixing it into a cup of tea but he never drinks it because Moody's paranioa rubbed off on him, so I don't know of anything to suggest that Snape provided a fake potion.

Dumbledore tells Harry Snape provided a fake during his end of year pep talk...If you can't trust Dumbledore who can you trust?

[edit] Transportation

Would the Knight Bus and Hogwarts Express be fit to add to the transportation section or are they more vehicles than objects?--Daveswagon 00:24, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Maurauders' middle names

Lupin's middle name is verified here: http://www.mugglenet.com/jkrwbd.shtml I have not added his middle name back in, however, as that sort of detail belongs (and already is) in the Remus Lupin article, not in every single article that ever mentions him. --Icarus 05:41, 15 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Note to anyone intending on splitting off a section

This page has been processed by N-Bot, which, for browsing convenience, changes links to redirects to lists to links to the relevant list sections: e.g. [[Portkey]] is changed to [[Magical objects in Harry Potter#Portkey|Portkey]].

As a result, anyone who intends to split a section out of this page should be aware that, as of 21 September 2005, the following sections were linked to from the following pages:

[edit] {{CoS}}

I think any links to other books need to have at least the partial book title, ie "Chamber of Secrets" and not "CoS", for the sake of clarity. Further, using a template such as {{CoS}} is basically the same as using a redirect, which would be more appropriate as redirects consume less system resources than transcluded templates.

This will need to be the case from now on, as Template:CoS is up for deletion and there is consensus to delete. I've no doubt that the other templates (Template:PoA, Template:GoF etc.) will end up on templates for deletion in due course, and so we should start minimising use of these now.

Where should the FORD ANGLIA be added here or at the magical creatures page?

[edit] Wrong Links

The "Nicholas Flamel" needs to be redirected to "Nicholas Flamel (Harry Potter)". Yauhin 01:41, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ford Anglia

What about the Weasley's car?--23prootie 06:48, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
