Picture
The hoover charm is Wingardium Leviosa, isn´t it? But I think the picture shown in the article is Levicorpus--Rodolphus 20:11, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
I´ve removed all Levicorpus mentions now. Can´t anyone upload a moving image OFthe levitating feather in film 1?--Rodolphus 14:48, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
Used
This spell was used non-verbally in the duel between Dumbeldore and Voldemort when Dumbeldore formed a dome of water around Voldemort he "levitates" the water it says in the article or was that another spell???

Link
I corrected a missing link for "Harry Potter" just a minor edit, but I wanted to fix it. =) GinnyPi 02:41, October 11, 2009 (UTC)
Levioso
The first source used in the article is from the Warner Bros. website, but the page on that website clearly refers to the Levioso (Levitation spell). It says that Levioso originated in England and so. (You can read it by yourself.)
So, since the source talks about the Levioso spell, I don't understand why is misused in this way. Even if we never heard of this spell in both the books and the films, the official website of the films should be considered canon. Can't we just create a page for Levioso and move the proper information there? --EXE.eseguibile 16:35, August 2, 2010 (UTC)
Name
Both Pottermore and Wonderbook: Book of Spells refer to this spell as the Levitation Charm. Both use information straight from Rowling. Should we change the name, or should we wait for Chamber of Secrets on Pottermore and see how, if at all, it covers this issue? -- 1337star (Drop me a line!) 23:02, June 14, 2012 (UTC)
- I'm for changing the name. It is the most recent source we're talking about, and it unquestionably had Rowling's input. -- Seth Cooper owl post! 23:26, June 14, 2012 (UTC)
- New info from Pottermore: the Hover Charm's entry implies that it is a separate spell. Note that it is described as making objects "hover", whereas Wingardium Leviosa is almost always described as making objects "fly". I think a split is in order. -- 1337star (Drop me a line!) 20:30, July 12, 2012 (UTC)

Flying Charm?
1337star's comment about Wingardium Leviosa always being described as making the target fly made me wonder... is it possible that this is the Flying Charm mentioned in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix? I thought it made sense, since they both make the target fly and if one cast Wingardium Leviosa on a broomstick it'd presumably have a similar effect to the Flying Charm. Also, they're both charms. Just wondered...Hunnie Bunn (talk) 15:54, July 16, 2012 (UTC)
- There's a distinct difference, though. The Levitation Charm (as I will be so bold to call it now) makes objects (other than people) fly at control of the caster as long as the spell is focused on it. The Flying Charm allows an object to fly at control of a rider, and is presumably permanent. -- 1337star (Drop me a line!) 17:06, July 16, 2012 (UTC)
- I see. Thank you for helping me understand that, it was confusing me for a while. As I said, I was just curious. By the way, if y$ou need help with anything, just send me an owl or something. Hunnie Bunn (talk) 17:18, July 16, 2012 (UTC)
Hover Charm/Levitation Charm
Hey everyone. I'm still a bit tired (it's only nine o'clock) but I wanted to have another go at splitting Wingardium Leviosa and the Hover Charm, as nobody has raised any complaints about the split and all that needs to be done is the doing itself. I tried to do so last night, but unfortunately my edit was reverted before I could finish the Hover Charm page (a shame, as I thought it looked quite good. Anywho, if anything gets really messed up, it's just me. I am, yours most sincerely, Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore(talk)
Where Did Wingardium Leviosa Go?
Thanks, Seth, for sorting that out. Unfortunately, despite many attempts to find Wingardium Leviosa, all attempts redirected here. Do you know what happened to Wingardium Leviosa, or should I perhaps create a new page? Again, many thanks. Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore (talk) 15:57, August 27, 2012 (UTC)
- Wingardium Leviosa now redirects to Levitation Charm. -- Seth Cooper owl post! 16:13, August 27, 2012 (UTC)
