Talk:Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Dementor

Artificial?
It has been made clear, both in the books and by JK Rowling in interviews, that Dementors are not artificial. Should this be removed, or addressed as a common misconception?--86.45.25.165 (discuss) 03:18, 23 November 2012 (UTC)
 * I'd argue that it is not made clear in the books; nothing is stated one way or the other about their origins, although we can safely assume that "breeding" implies life rather than Wizarding creation. Perhaps they were purpose-bred like dogs... though frankly I can't imagine any wizard wanting to do that for a living. How do you feed your breeding stock? (Shudder.) I've tweaked that as best I can to support that suggestion; if you can do better, feel free. Chazz (talk) 04:10, 23 November 2012 (UTC)
