Harry's classmate's job

Nice to see someone is checking, easy to make mistakes with this lot. However, this one seems correct. Towards the bottom of the interview,

Anyway, it’s very exciting. We just love Harry Potter. We’re curious ---- well first of all we can’t wait for Books 4, 5, 6 and 7. But after that, we’re curious as to whether Harry is going to have a life after Hogwarts, or if maybe, Harry might be a Hogwarts teacher. JKR: Well, because all your kids said ‘hello’ so nicely in the background there, I am going to give you information I haven’t given anyone else and I will tell you that one of the characters, one of Harry’s classmates, though it’s not Harry himself, does end up a teacher at Hogwarts. But, it is not, maybe the one you think, hint, hint, hint. Yeah, one of them does end up staying at Hogwarts, but

So I take it that means it's not Hermione, but that would be speculation. Sandpiper 14:23, 19 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

About the AfD on the Prior Speculation of HBP

Regarding this AfD, I'd like to know why you closed the debate with the result 'Not delete'. There were more votes for 'Delete', than there were for 'Keep'; also, the reason given for 'Delete' were more significant than the ones given for 'Keep'. As for 'Merge', the users weren't clear as to whether they wanted the article to remain, and have a redirect to the HBP article, or if they wanted the article to be deleted after some important points had been merged. Could you please clarify? Thanks. --Bluerain 10:17, 22 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Btw, you can reply on this page if you want. I have it watchlisted. --Bluerain 10:20, 22 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I wasn't counting 'Merge' as a 'Not-delete' vote; my thinking was that a Merge vote would count as neutral, and in that case, whether the article is to be kept as a redirect, or deleted outright after a few relevant points are merged, would have to be discussed outside of the AfD. Either case, isn't a merged article deleted in the end anyway? Also, the reasons given for keeping the article were really dumb IMO, and so I thought that would also count, seeing as its not just a vote-counting process. Anyway, this article has to go; can I propose it for deletion again? --Bluerain 12:12, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I wasn't asking you to 'discount' the Keep votes altogether. What I meant was that if there was a 50-50, say, (and I was counting the Keep and Merge votes as separate, giving 'Delete' a slightly higher number), then you could have gone with the Delete side, cuz the strength of the arguments was better imo. Anywyay, I can't claim to understand the 'procedure' completely, and I'm still unclear on how articles are to be 'merged' (under the GFDL), so it makes no sense for me to ask for a Deletion review. Though can you tell me how long you usually wait before renominating an AfD? Or maybe you can do this article, if you want to. --Bluerain 13:10, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Just FYI....

When you threw a block on User:142.22.186.13 you also ended up throwing up the shared proxy block on me, I lifted it so I could do a little housekeeping, I hope thats ok w/ you -- Tawker 16:44, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Lol, I was likely at another location when I blocked, it was a tad weird that I ended up wheel warring with myself :o -- Tawker 16:50, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

User:Jesus On Wheels

His name wasn't block because I think he is Willy on wheels or a vandal, but because It is an inappropriate username per Wikipedia:Username#Inappropriate_usernames. User:Durin also queried this and I invited him to unblock if he felt that strongly about it, he declined. But I'm quite happy to extend the offer to you, you won't be getting in a war over it. --pgk^(talk) 17:21, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think it'll blow up in your face because he'll do anything wrong, just as I said the name is inappropriate and should be changed. He's more than welcome to edit under a differnt name. --pgk^(talk) 17:26, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

EWS23's RfA

Hi Deathphoenix! Thank you very much for your support of my request for adminship. It's been good working with you on the Harry Potter WikiProject, and I'm sure there's still plenty of stuff we can do to make it better. Thanks again, and feel free to leave me a message if you ever see something I could be doing better. E WS23 | (Leave me a message!) 00:54, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

AfD/Old

Hi Deathphoenix, thanks for sorting that out for me. I completely forgot about removing the link; I'd forget my own head sometimes :). Rje 19:10, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Double voting

Hi Deathphoenix,

On my talk page, it has been suggested that there's nothing wrong with saying "Keep" more than once. Is that correct? Andjam 17:09, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Please remove entries from WP:AIV

Hey, thanks for the note! I've been doing what I've seen other admins do: leave a report up temporarily so I or another admin can check back in a few minutes to see if there are any changes. :) RadioKirk talk to me 17:43, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Response to spamlink

Ahh, just making sure. Guess I should take a bit more of a look at that kind of stuff. Thanks.Tuvas 01:30, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Older version of WP:AIV

Hi Deathphoenix! Just wanted to remind you to make sure you're looking at the newest edit of WP:AIV, or stuff like this can happen [1]. Just thought I'd point it out, no problems. Thanks! E WS23 | (Leave me a message!) 05:01, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Luna Lovegood Image

Hi again. I found a better image that is actually the chapter picture of chapter 16 in the Order of the Pheonix. You can see it at www.mugglenet.com/.../ chapterpictures-ootp.shtml. The website said that it already got copyright for the pictures, you just have to mention under the website that u got the picture from mugglenet.com. I really don't know how to put the image in the page, so you can do whatever u want with pic. Bye Spottedleaf 18:46, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi My computer went funky with the URL so you can try manually typing it in and see if it works. Tell me how it goes.

Hello Deathphoenix. Thank you for your strong support and gracious comment at request for adminship which ended at the overwhelming and flattering result of (160/1/0), and leaves me in a position of having to live up to a high standard of community expectation. Of course, if I make any procedural mistakes, feel free to point them out and I look forward to working with you in the future, Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 04:03, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Joey Garcia

Thanks for letting me know. I just spoke to the real Joey Garcia and he told me he wasn't that user and my brother would never call me a vandal. Mike Garcia 22:20, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
