[edit] Mr. and Mrs. Krum

Extremely minor Harry Potter characters who are mentioned in about one paragraph and have no speaking lines. Article is full of assumptions ("They are supportive of their son") that are quite obvious but don't come out directly from the book. Any useful information could be merged with Viktor Krum, otherwise delete. ---Laur 10:50, 7 August 2005 (UTC)

• Keep, wikipedia's detailed coverage of Harry Potter is one of its strengths. Kappa 13:41, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
  • There's a big difference between "detailed coverage" and "ludicriously detailed trivia" -- and ludicriously detailed trivia is not encyclopedic. --Calton | Talk 15:57, August 7, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, pointless fancruft. Martg76 13:53, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Potter-cruft. --Calton | Talk 15:57, August 7, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, Wikipedia is not a storehouse for ridiculous fictional minutae, regardless of the source's popularity. Lord Bob 17:55, August 7, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete - origional research/non-canonical/fancruft Sirmob 18:03, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment - however, the few relevant details that actually exist from the book could certainly be merged with Viktor Krum before or after the deletion... Sirmob 18:06, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect with List of characters in the Harry Potter books or Viktor Krum. Pburka 00:54, August 8, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. I'm a Harry Potter fanboy, but this is useless. Nandesuka 02:07, 8 August 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect to List of characters in the Harry Potter books and give these characters a brief mention there. The article is speculation or original research. Nonetheless, they have been present in book 4, so I don't support an outright deletion. Sjakkalle (Check!) 08:51, 8 August 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect, but perhaps to a list of minor characters in the Harry Potter books (akin to the list which exists for minor Star-Wars characters; and: couldn't we somehow link this to Ashlee Simpson? :) Lectonar 12:29, 8 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete and move to the extensive Wikibook on Harry Potter: Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter --Azertus 09:58, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
• Merge into list of minor Harry Potter characters. --86.130.26.225 13:50, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
