[edit] Kingsley Shacklebolt was not in the original OotP

I could be wrong, but I think this paragraph implies that Kingsley was a "new addition" to the order (from Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Scholastic edition, page 95):

“We've managed to convince a couple of people, though,” said Mr. Weasley. “Tonks here, for one — she's too young to have been in the Order of the Phoenix last time, and having Aurors on our side is a huge advantage — Kingsley Shacklebolt's been a real asset too. He's in the charge of the hunt for Sirius, so he's been feeding the Ministry information that Sirius is in Tibet.”

(Bold text is mine).

To me, that means that Kingsley Shacklebolt is a new addition to the order. If no one disagrees, I will change the though it is never stated if Kingsley was part of the original Order of the Phoenix to but it appears that he was not part of the original Order of the Phoenix.

"Kingsley Shacklebolt is an Auror who works for the Ministry of Magic, as double agent for the Order. He is in charge of the search for Sirius Black in the Ministry, and has been feeding the Ministry information that Sirius is in Tibet. "

Shouldn't the tense be changed to past as he no longer has this task as Sirius is dead and he is now involved in watching the PM? Countmippipopolous 05:33, 31 July 2005 (UTC)


  • Since when has Sanuel L. Jackson been Kingsley Shacklebolt????? Dan 18:06, 18 January 2006 (UTC)


  • The pic of Samuel L. Jackson is back again.... so I will be removing it again.... it has no relevance to Kingsley Shacklebolt (if he will be portraying him in the next film then back the picture up with some form of verification. Dan 15:31, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Possible Merger?

  • I think this article should be considered for merger to the Minor Members of the Order of the Phoenix. I don't think he features prominently enough or to warrant his own article nor is there enough relevant information to flesh out an article. Death Eater Dan 19:25, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
I am going to do it as its obvious. As per WP:FICT major characters to have own page only.--Dacium 04:47, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
