 * Support: Headmaster in Deathly Hallows, DADA in Half-Blood Prince and the Potions in other books. Timothyhouse1 08:43, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Support: I think it's ready to be featured. 10:48, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Support: Nice quotes, images, and references. I also added the expanded relationships section from the (now pretty much dead) Project Greasy Git. 11:25, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Support One of the bravest / most important characters in the book. Great article, needs to be featured. ^^ HPguru 08:36, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Support: Very good relationship section.Xtraii
 * Oppose: I will support this article if the BtS can include that Tim Roth was offered the role before Alan Rickman was casted, but Roth could not combine it with his work in Planet of the Apes (2001, Tim Burton). I would edit it myself, but I don't like to edit other people's nominations. --Skippy Farlstendoiro 08:53, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Support: Okey, it's added and, as I said, I now support the article. If I can do it after so few edits. Skippy Farlstendoiro 06:21, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Support: I think the biography section could still use a bit of work, but overall, I think it's ready.
 * Oppose: I think the time line feels wierd, we learn everything about Snape in the same order as in the books but I think we should learn them as they happened to him. (First Dumbledore convices him to kill him, then he makes the wow, then he kills him. Not: he makes the wow, he kills him, then we find out it was already decided.) Thats how we learn about the other characters, and I know it's different with Snape because we didn't find out, for sure, until the wery end if he was good or bad, but it would be more interesting to have everything told, as it happened to him. This is about him, right?
 * Support: It looks good to me. -- Cubs Fan2007 (Talk)  02:56, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

Pure-blood (3 votes for, 1 against)

 * Support: Very detailed, lots of images, good quotes, references, etc. Oread 21:38, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Support: I agree. 11:32, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose: The books never say that Crabbe was a pure-blood.Xtraii
 * Argument: First of all, I don't think a tiny thing like that is enough reason to oppose an article being featured — especially since you can edit or at least discuss the issue if you think it's problematic. Secondly, it's highly likely that Crabbe is a pure-blood — Irma Crabbe, presumably a relative, married Pollux Black and is the mother of Walburga Black, and thus is obviously a pure-blood; otherwise her children wouldn't have been and Pollux would have been disowned for the marriage. Given that Vincent Crabbe is related to the House of Black, is the son of a Death Eater, is friends with a Malfoy, and actively served Voldemort during the Battle of Hogwarts (even if he didn't have the Mark), it's very likely he is a pure-blood.
