Non-free images and Hogwarts staff

Per terms of WP:NFLISTS, I've removed the images you added to this article. This results in them being orphaned, and subject to deletion. Please do not restore them. If you have questions, ask. Thank you, --Hammersoft (talk) 22:59, 8 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

Death Eater Image

Hi, I don't know the bald bloke, or the bloke on the far left of the image, can you update the article with their details if you have them please. Cheers Carl Sixsmith (talk) 21:30, 10 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

Cast on Harry Potter

edit

I don't know why you are deleting some cast information on the Harry Potter films and I am assuming good faith on that. But please be careful, you seem to have broken some references. Make sure you fix that. − Jhenderson 777 21:28, 15 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

Yeah you taking it to the discussion page is the reason why I assumed good faith. − Jhenderson 777 21:37, 15 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

Reference Help

edit

You seem not sure how to source references. I used to be like this until I found the handy tool under "My Preferences" -- look under "Gadgets". Check the box by "reftools". You should see the drop-down menu when you edit. (Similar to the "Special characters" and "Help" menus). --Glimmer721 talk 22:48, 15 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

WPHP Goals

I've posted some goals for WikiProject Harry Potter on the improvement page for this year. Feel free to add and comment! --Glimmer721 talk 23:32, 1 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Cast

edit

You agreed that Bonnie Wright was okay in the cast list of Half-Blood Prince (film), but this has been removed because I tried adding Evanna Lynch as Luna is mentioned in the plot. I'm trying to get this up to GA here because it failed due to lack of reliable sources. If this is based on marketing, I know Lynch got a lot of pubicity, although her character isn't as big as in Order of the Phoenix. The reasoning here? Cheers, Glimmer721 talk 02:08, 17 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Thanks, it just seems strange to me that we should base it on notable actors rather than characters and that makes the cast list section kind of misleading...I shouldn't worry about this until we get rid of all the unreliable sources in HPB and it's renominated for GA. anyway. I was just curious as I'm not up to date with celebrities. Glimmer721 talk 22:36, 26 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
I'd talk to Gran2 as Stone is mainly her project, and I wouldn't list extras in the backgroung even though they have names (Susan Bones, Hannah Abbott, etc.) We usually have the little paragraph underneath explaining the newbies to the cast. I think that characters at least mentioned in the plot should be mentioned somewhere in the credits; it would probably be find if we added them after like you said. We should ask other users who are involved with this first, though. Glimmer721 talk 23:12, 26 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
I see. :) Glimmer721 talk 23:41, 29 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
