Hes a good potion master

And he was good lily before he called her a slur

Well a fact is something that can be proven true or false, but is more accurate than all other statements, and an opinion is more like a expression of what a person feels about a certain character?

Exactly. Snape cannot be proven as a good or a bad character as long there is other evidence opposing so, and fun fact: there is

Yeah, but I don't like it sometimes when people tend to make Snape the worst villain ever who had no single good qualities, he wasn't only good or only bad, he was just grey.

Examples of opinion vs fact

Opinion: I like/dislike snape

Fact: snape called lily a slur and was a Deatheater, yet he did redeem himself slightly in his future

Okay, for Snapers (Snape haters). Imagine a scale of evil and a scale of good. How high would calling someone a slur would be on the evil scale? Now, how high would saving someone's life many times be? Just these two, without any other information, that would now be considered dominative, even though I know it isn't. Because these are the two most common facts that Snape fans and snape haters tend to mention

So Snape being a bad person isn't a fact? I meant he is a bad person, not a bad character at all, and he might even be one of the most well written characters ever for his character arc, and he doesn't have to be a "good" person for that.

Adjectives in general are 99% of the times opinions

@NeoRedZen , I mean the people who's excuse for calling him a 'good person' is that he was in love with Harry's mother, not realising that it was obsession, and mindless defending him because of one 'good' thing, which while could be brought back to the halo effect (the effect that causes us to think one good attribute automatically means other good ones too), but considering not everyone is blinded by his obsessive nature, they're stupid. Yes, Snape can be... funny, put loosely, but he was not a good person. He was complex, real, interesting, but not good in the way most people think of the word.

Also, is swearing allowed on the wiki? I'm not quite sure.

I'm sure they're mostly movie-watchers as I haven't met a book-reader anywhere yet who has completed the series multiple times and still said something like that, they at least agree on that he wasn't a good person.

I agree, and not all think of it in the good way as people who likes his character because of his flaws and vile attitude would definitely say otherwise, and despite some, most book-readers at least doesn't think it in the good way.
