Asexuality
Not sourced and not needed. I truly believe that should be deleted.


 * This article does not add anything whatsoever to our knowledge of Dumbledore or the entire Harry Potter series. It should be deleted without delay.


 * We do have an article on homosexuality, so it would be difficult to justify keeping that one while deleting this one, as JKR did say that Dumbledore "lost his moral compass completely when he fell in love and I think subsequently became very mistrusting of his own judgment in those matters so became quite asexual. He led a celibate and bookish life."


 * As I see it, we have three viable options:


 * Keep both articles.
 * Delete both articles.
 * Merge the two into one Sexual orientation article.


 * Just my opinion. - Nick O'Demus 06:59, July 11, 2010 (UTC)

I´d say we should take the third option, and create a heterosexual section.--Rodolphus 07:02, July 11, 2010 (UTC)


 * I find the third option presented by Nick O'Demus a good choice.
 * My point is, there's so little and unsubstantiated information to say about asexuality in Harry Potter universe that I'm not sure if it deserves an article. I also must say I feel a little bit reluctant about using a word so ambiguous and extreme to define Dumbledore's life.


 * As you know, "Asexuality" can be defined as a lack of sexual orientation and Dumbledore was gay, that's for sure.
 * Nevertheless J.K. said it, so it deserves to be mentioned, but there's no need to do an entire article. Wise Whim 18:14, July 11, 2010 (UTC)


 * If there are no other objections, and if nobody has anything else to add, I'll get started on the merge later this evening. - Nick O'Demus 11:47, July 14, 2010 (UTC)


 * "Asexual" can also mean reproducing without male or female gametes (as is the case with single-celled organisms). Thus, to avoid confusion, I'd support merging "Asexuality" into "Sexual orientation," since the only reference to "asexual" in HP canon is in that sense. ★ S t a r s t u f f (Owl me!) 22:24, July 16, 2010 (UTC)

Baron
Either delete it or turn it into a disambiguation page. There is at least one more Baron, the old posh baron--Rodolphus 10:59, July 24, 2010 (UTC)

Harry Potter's First Transfiguration Class
There are no articles for specific lessons. --JKoch (Owl Me! ) 22:40, July 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * I agree. --El Profeta Vespertino 22:44, July 30, 2010 (UTC)

In Memory of Fred Weasley
While the sentiment is ok, the article is not appropriate, I have told user that stuff like that needs to stay on their User page. --JKoch (<font face="Monotype Corsiva" size="1" color="Red">Owl Me! ) 22:37, August 5, 2010 (UTC)
 * Way ahead of you. Article deleted. - Cavalier One Gryffindorcrest.jpg( Wizarding Wireless Network ) 22:40, August 5, 2010 (UTC)
