Article name[]

Should this article really be called "Half-breeds." That's a term Dolores Umbridge used to insult and demean totally normal people who weren't the same as her. It seems wrong. Mafalda Hopkirk 07:07, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Unfortunately, it seems that it is the only "official" term we have for it. Perhaps rewriting the article to make it clear that it is a demeaning term (like Mudblood) would suffice? - Cavalier One(Wizarding Wireless Network) 11:38, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

how long do thisTraits last[]

I was wondering how long do thisTraits last i mean we Know for Fleur it is at least two Gerntaions but what of others Raven Darkholme 07:47, July 21, 2011 (UTC)

Why does it say that Half-goblins are more clever then humans because of their goblin ancestry although it says that humans are more inteligent then goblins? Is it a mistake on the wikipedia, inconsistency in books or there is some difference between clevernes and inteligence? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 89.201.231.212 (talkcontribs) 16:42, 27 January 2013 (UTC).


Page move[]

Should we move this article to part-human? Given the context it has been used in, half-breed seems to be used only as an insult. Part-human seems to be the politically correct term. (Guideline for the treatment of non-wizard part humans is a Ministry regulation).--Rodolphus (talk) 09:17, December 30, 2015 (UTC)

Bumping.--Rodolphus (talk) 08:58, January 23, 2016 (UTC)
Bumping. --Rodolphus (talk) 15:01, March 3, 2016 (UTC)
I have no issue with that, as long as "Half-breed" is left as a redirect. --Sajuuk 15:17, March 3, 2016 (UTC)

It would be kept. What do the others think?--Rodolphus (talk) 15:23, March 3, 2016 (UTC)

I do have an issue, because "half-breeds" aren't necessarily part-humans. The page, as you can see, also covers other crossbreeds, such as cats that are part-Kneazles, the Blast-Ended Skrewts, and hypothetical crossbreeds between species that can both breed with humans (e.g. a half-vampire, half-goblin). —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Scrooge MacDuck (talkcontribs) 20:57, 20 February 2018 (UTC).

I think renaming it is good, I think the only time half-breed was used in the series was for insults. Change it to part-human or half-human or something like that. (Long Island Spartan (talk))

Half-elves in FB:AWTFT2[]

Hi, just asking to be more precise, but I think I saw the mention in crimes of Grindelwald, while leta explained Corvus (and Credence, by swapping them) backstory and death in the graveyards, of half house elves. They were talking about the dwarf-sized old lady that was once handmaiden to the Lestrange family, the one that signed Credence's adoption papers & where Credence got to, thinking she was his mother.

Has anyone noticed this too, or did I see it incorrectly? Leonson (talk) 15:13, November 14, 2018 (UTC)
