[edit] Clean-up

I've been tweaking the page quite a bit, and changed the look as well. Tell me what you think. I think the section header names are a bit off, so if anybody can come up with better names, please let me know. --Fbv65edel ^{(discuss | contribs)} 15:12, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

Do we want to move Bones to Cast Characters not Returning? ForestH2

Ehh, I don't see her coming back but there's no proof yet. David Yates could be really nice and ask her to return even though she wouldn't speak… Dunno. --Fbv65edel ^{(discuss | contribs)} 22:53, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

I think this page looks great....I agree the section header names are a bit off..I'm thinking. Although since I'm going away until May 15th, my thoughts (in less I come up with them tonight) will not be written down although I may log in once and a while although I'll be pretty busy. ForestH2

Look this is bloody ridiculous, I agree to disagree here, in the past characters in the book have been changed around for the movie versions, and storylines/scenes altered - you have based this 'confirmed' scenario on pure assumption. Therefore it is logical that these scenes should be placed under the heading: 'semi-confirmed' due to no official word from Warner Bros. or anyone involved closley in the film's production. I never vandilized anything (which is rich coming from a former vandal), I just believe you are over emphasizing the characters in the Differences between book and movie versions of OOTP article (which is incorrectly titled - I believe it should be titled more appropriately, so to keep away from false attraction to the page), if Wikipedia is supposed to be a democratic website - then I believe that you should take my views into account, I have worked hard on the OOTP page (I added the Trivia, Confirmed Locations, Scenes, New Cast, and Cast Order sections) and 'm skeptical as top whether this website lives up to it's reputation, Foxearth (logged out due to computer errors)

[edit] Unfilmed Scenes

Whoops, sorry wrong movie (blush). Forget my comment. Kilyle 08:21, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Qudditch scenes cut

Alica Spinnet and Katie Bell are in the film in DA scenes and a couple other small scenes; so they might appear thre but they won't appear in Qudditch scenes. Unlike Miles Bletchly for example who only appears in Qudditch scenes he will be cut. Carmelapple 16:37, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

That's fine, thanks for noticing that. However, your removal of Willy Widdershins and Warrington I have to revert as they appear and we like to keep this list complete. Warrington, though a Quiddith player, is in the Inquisitorial Squad. True, they basically have no chance to make the film, but they need to be kept until there is word that they are omitted. --Fbv65edel / ☑t / ☛c || 17:13, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Lavender Brown

Thought you ought to know that you've got Lavender written down in New Cast, and Expected/Possible. It's highly unlikely that Jennifer Smith will return, but best to take her off new cast list, and add source that announced Brown and Edgecombe would be likely cut out.

My mistake, read the opening commentary in the New Cast section. Sorry! :-$

[edit] New cast

Luna Lovegood (played by Evanna Lynch) will also appear in the movie, so why isn't she at the section of the new characters?

That section is only for characters who have never been cast in a previous movie, and have not yet been cast for this film. Since Luna appears in both the book and the film, she doesn't belong there. --Fbv65edel / ☑t / ☛c || 23:55, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The hand that never lies.

Is a production shot showing Harrys hand as saying "I will not break rules" instead of "I will not tell lies" proof enough to go on the article?Have a look.E-flah 18:33, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
