2011

Hello everyone, this project has been semi-inactive lately so I thought I'd motivate everyone. Here are some things we need to do. Feel free to add and comment on anything here! --Glimmer721 ^talk 23:18, 1 January 2011 (UTC)

General

• Make sure the plot summaries, etc. are not in-universe.
• Templates such as ^[HP1] should not be used as references; instead, use {{HPref}} for a properly cited reference. A page number option should be added to this template, though I am not sure how to do it. Page numbers from either British or American version is all right for now. This is part of the reason why many former GA articles, such as Lord Voldemort, were delisted.
• Always use {{cite web}} templates or any other of the like, and fill out as many fields as possible.
• Find reliable sources instead of fansites like Mugglenet, The Leaky Cauldron, Snitchseeker and HPANA.

Books

• Prisoner of Azkaban is only Start-class. More critical reception is needed.
• Half-Blood Prince and Goblet of Fire are the other books not GA-class.

Characters

• Harry Potter (character)--what happened to the "Concept and Creation" section?
• Hermione Granger and Lord Voldemort were also delisted in the past, see their delisting page for why.

Films, Actors/Actresses, Soundtracks, and Games

• Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (film)--failed GA assessment because of fansites as references, please help us remove them!
• Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (film)--as a current event, it should be kept under watchful eyes; also contains a lot of fansite sources.

Universe

• Horcrux is too in-universe; see WP:WAF.
