It currently has more than 280,000 fans worldwide who have "liked the page" and growing at an average of around a thousand likes a day.

Can i know how this piece of information adds to the overall understanding of the book? sure, this proves that the book has a good fanbase but it is not important in a encyclopedic article about the book 15:23, 18 September 2011 (UTC)

Apostrophe

In the section 'Christian allegories' it says "The Dumbledore's family tomb" which should either be just "Dumbledore's family tomb" or "The Dumbledores' family tomb" - right? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.40.248.111 (talk) 12:28, 29 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Cover Picture

Anyone vote for an American cover to be displayed, as well as the UK? It is very expectable for users of Wikipedia to see the American cover as well. Perhaps lower down? — Preceding unsigned comment added by John Holmes II (talkcontribs) 18:24, 4 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

Cover art is copyrighted, and the use of the UK cover is limited by the Fair Use Rationale provided with the image media file. Use of non-free images on Wikipedia is limited, see Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria. Use of images with free licenses is encouraged instead. The other images in this article have free licenses.

I concur with Elizium23; adding the US cover would not be covered by Non-free content criteria, it would add nothing to the article and presents no new information to a reader. And why US cover-art? If one was to advocate for that you may as well advocate for using every single different cover ever made by each individual country. Using the UK cover for fair use rationale is fine - it illustrates the article and adds to the text, and is the cover from the country of origin. Adding US cover art purely from a copyright point of view is indefensible, not to mention pretty pointless in every other aspect. Patyo1994 (talk) 23:35, 5 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

Edit request from 64.206.23.97, 6 August 2011:

Plot Summary, first paragraph: Change "...Helga Hufflepuff, and the third may be..." to "...Helga Hufflepuff and a third may be..." After all, there are seven (eight counting Voldemort himself) horcruxes, not three. Also, British English would omit the comma before that "and".

typo

middle of the 4th paragraph of the plot summary, "seaking" should be "seeking", shouldn't it?
