[edit] typo

middle of the 4th paragraph of the plot summary, "seaking" should be "seeking", shouldn't it?

corrected. Thank you. Mezigue (talk) 11:38, 20 August 2011 (UTC)

Clarity change

In the paragraph is this sentence: "Harry surrenders himself to death at Voldemort's hand, using the Resurrection Stone to bring back his deceased loved ones for a short while, who casts the Killing Curse at him, sending Harry to a limbo-like state between life and death." This is somewhat confusing as it almost points to his deceased loved one casting the killing curse. More appropriately would be this suggestion:

Harry surrenders himself to death at Voldemort's hand in the forest. But before meeting Voldemort Harry uses the Resurrection Stone to bring back his deceased loved ones for a short while giving him comfort. Then he meets Voldemort who casts the Killing Curse at him, sending Harry to a limbo-like state between life and death.

'Accuracy change Harry does not leave when he is 17 and the protection is broken, he leaves before that date.

"Waried" Text currently says that Snape's loyalty never waried. No such word; should probably be "wavered". 174.7.104.200 (talk) 05:46, 10 October 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Hatnote

There's a hatnote for people searching for the Amersham postcode district HP7. Realistically how often does this happen? I can't say that I've ever searched WP for a postcode area and don't see any rationale for doing so, as result I see this hat as completely pointless. Since one competent editor saw fit to add it, I'm reluctant to remove it without consensus, so if anyone else agrees.... danno 02:19, 4 December 2011 (UTC)
