[edit] Use of a Wand
I have edited this section to be more neutral. The previous version of this section made it sound as though a wand was definitely required for Apparition. However, there is no conclusive evidence in canon for this. I have included both sides of the argument in the revision. Magi COS 03:53, 13 June 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Behind the Scenes
There were two Behind the Scenes sections. They have been merged. Magi COS 03:53, 13 June 2009 (UTC)
[edit] In the Films
This section does not hold a neutral tone and instead just scrutinizes the way apparition is portrayed in the movies. The way apparition is portrayed in the movies is merely a stylistic choice made for a cooler and more interesting visual experience than just people going "pop". When a book is translated into a movie these are exactly the sort of things that may be slightly modified to work better in favor of the visual medium.
They were apparating in the films, and the Death Eaters did not "hit the foundation" of the Millenium Bridge. All they did was spiral around it until the structure collapsed.
Don't try to over-analyze it like it's some sort of science.

[edit] Main Display Quote
I've changed it to the description of Harry's first experience with Apparation. It seems to fit the main quote better than instructions on how they do it. A new section possibly explaining how it is done could be added at a later point containing the previous quote of Wilkie Twycross into that. Anyone got any comments on it?

[edit] Apparition to Disapparition
Could someone add what the difference is, if any, between apparating and disapparating?
[edit] Inter-country Apparition
Is it true that Inter-country Apparition is impossible and/or illegal? One of the true or false W.O.M.B.A.T. questions is "Inter-country Apparition has been outlawed due to extreme Splinching." but JKR never released the official answers. When the Malfoys catch Harry in DH Voldemort is Nurmengard killing Grindelwald and I quote "he could feel Voldemort flying through the sky from far away, over a dark and stormy sea, and soon he would be close enough to Apparate to them" I interpret this to mean that the previous statement was true and that there is something (e.g. a spell put in place by The International Confederation of Wizards) stopping him apparating to Malfoy Manor until he reaches British water. Or possibly there is nothing stopping him apparating but the "extreme Splinching" part at least was true and Voldemort doesn't want to cut himself in half. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 82.152.33.134 (talk • contribs).
