Ginny Weasley[edit]

I think this has enough content to become a Featured Article at some point, although there may still be some work to be done. Any input is much appreciated. This is part of WikiProject Harry Potter --drak2 10:46, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Will need extensive addition in a few weeks. let us know then. Septentrionalis 19:57, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • I see two issues with this article obtaining FA status. First, there is the bane of FAC submitters everywhere, Wikipedia:Cite your sources. While in my opinion an implicit reference to J.K. Rowling's books can reasonably be made, analysis or information from non-canonical sources must be properly referenced. This includes the references comparing Ginny to a Damsel in Distress along with all information regarding views of Ginny within HP fandom. Second, with the impending release of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince the information in this article is likely to see significant addition in less than a month. This article should wait until after it stabilizes before going to FAC. --Allen3 talk 20:14, Jun 23, 2005 (UTC)
I agree with waiting. Although I'd like to see the article as a FA, it will (hopefully dramatically) change in the second wekk of July. I say wait. --Jotomicron | talk 21:18, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Totally agree. Better wait with this until Half Blood Prince is released and resulting info incorporated. - Mgm|(talk) 09:34, Jun 24, 2005 (UTC)
How about waiting till the 7th book is released to complete the thesis? :) =Nichalp «Talk»= 18:19, Jun 24, 2005 (UTC)
  • Comparing Ginny's crush on Harry to Charlie Brown's crush on the Little Red Haired Girl seems to be a huge stretch, unless Rowling herself said she was thing along those lines it probably should be taken out. If she did, it needs a reference. MechBrowman 21:13, Jun 24, 2005 (UTC)
Well...it's extremely ironic and the odds of it are pretty slim...
