Changes to the Muggles' Guide
Thank you for your contributions, however I am very afraid they are going to have to be reverted, or at the very least extensively edited, despite the evident work that was put into them.

Unfortunately, a lot of the information in the entries for Professor Sprout and Madam Hooch is not supported by material in the 7-volume canon, and so should not be a part of the articles; some of it constitutes spoilers; much of it does not have any particular impact on the story line. The intent of the Muggles' Guide is not to produce an encyclopedic reference to the Potter world, rather it is to examine the series as a literary work, and try to determine what it is about the writing of what, from plot outline alone, would seem an ordinary heroic fantasy, that made it into such a phenomenon.

Additionally, I would like to suggest that you could sign up for a free user name; your contributions will be welcome, so long as you can keep the object of the Muggles' Guide in mind, and having a consistent user name will make it easier to keep in touch with you. Thank you. Chazz (talk) 16:19, 23 May 2011 (UTC)


 * I must repeat: edits to the Muggles' Guide that are unsupported by canon (the seven books of the series, plus Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and The Tales of Beedle the Bard, as mentioned in the Project Standards) will be summarily removed, as will edits that do not contribute to the aim of the project. We welcome your contributions, but only those that actually help the project. Chazz (talk) 06:15, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
