I concur. It needs images, tho. I'll see what I can rustle up. - Cavalier One^{(Wizarding Wireless Network)} 13:20, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. Also if someone could check to see if there are any more "main" articles I missed. I think I got them all but...yeah. It could definitely use an image - probably one from PoS movie when its seen from a far would look nice. But there could certainly be a whole bunch for different sections. -- DarkJedi613 ^(Talk) 14:53, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

lefttoc template messes up the page -Matoro183 ^(Ravenclaw) 22:31, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

What do you mean? All it does is float the ToC so that there isn't a huge, huge space on the right that's unused. -- DarkJedi613 ^(Talk) 00:32, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Maybe I should use IE more. It works there. -Matoro183 ^(Ravenclaw) 00:44, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

I use Mozilla Firefox and it works fine. What browser were you using? -- DarkJedi613 ^(Talk) 03:22, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Title

Should this be called Hogwarts Castle as it is a proper noun? Mafalda Hopkirk 01:15, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

Quite possibly. Castles in England are capitalised, like Windsor Castle. - Cavalier One^{(Wizarding Wireless Network)} 08:04, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Towers

Don't forget the Astronomy Tower! You are doing a great job. --EXE.eseguibile 02:48, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Redirects from dormitory

Should the article dormitory really be redirected here? --ShirleyA^{(The Quibbler)} 08:01, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

If you can create an article for that page, you can input it there, instead of redirecting to Hogwarts Castle page. --ÈnŔîčö ^{(Send me an Owl!)} 08:22, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

In my opinion all places that are part of the castle should be here instead of having their own articles. It seems pointlees to have separate articles for staircases and corridors. I think we should have a commnity project to make this article fully comprehensive, so all the staircase stubs etc can be deleted. Jayce Carver ^Talk 08:26, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

I had added a link in an article for dormitory, intending to create the article should it be red linked. But, instead it was redirected to Hogwarts Castle anyway. It is a little hard to include it in that article as the Hufflepuff and Slyhterin dormitories are underground while Ravenclaw and Gryffindor are situated higher up. ShirleyA^{(The Quibbler)} 09:48, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

I think that the projects idea is a great one! -- Hellabore^{(Deathly Hallows)}

Well, its not bad. ShirleyA^{(The Quibbler)} 09:57, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

Given the size and history of the castle the project would be a massive undertaking. If you guys are keen though I don't mind setting it up and serving as project leader. Jayce Carver ^Talk 10:16, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

Could I help lead as I have expirence with projects via Project Wizard Tales? -- Hellabore^{(Deathly Hallows)}

Certainely. We should probably discuss it via the Wizenagamot first, to see if others are interested. Jayce Carver ^Talk 10:25, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

Sure. -- Hellabore^{(Deathly Hallows)}

Yes they should all have different articles. Well...not EVERYTHING...but there are many parts of Hogwarts that do warrant their own articles. Also, not everything has to be a huge project in order to update and make articles better, you can just edit them individually and work off each other's work. -- DarkJedi613 ^(Talk) 13:40, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

I think that, when an article becomes very long, it may be time to break it into a series of sub-articles. Looking at this article's length, I see the benefit of having individual articles on places around Hogwarts, so long as they're notable enough to warrant it. "Hogwarts castle" could serve as kind of central hub where all the Hogwarts location sub-articles are summarized. ★ Starstuff ^{(Owl me!)} 14:22, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

Exactly! And that's how its set up right now (mostly). Although obviously some things must remain in the main article, not everything can be split off. -- DarkJedi613 ^(Talk) 16:30, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

[edit] I have noticed a problem

The one eyed witch passageway is at the bottom of the DADA staircase on the 3rd floor and yet the page says the DADA classroom is on the 2nd floor. It just doesn't make sence.

[edit] Main Image

How's this for the main image? Quidditch Lover ^{(My talk)(contribs)} 21:14, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

I think that's a great image. It's brightly lit and it gives a wide view of the castle. ★ Starstuff ^{(Owl me!)} 01:45, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Clean Up

I've done some massive cleanup on this page if anyone wants to go over it and remove the tag at the top. --Parodist 22:50, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

[edit] On the grounds

Location of White Tomb;)

[edit] Hogwarts Photo

Hi Today I surfed a little bit and found that Photo : [1]

Now my Question: Could we use the photo here? As far as I know, this is an Photo of from the original Castle, as used in the Films.

Sorry for my english, I'm trying to fix it. --Don't have more Ideas for my name ... 15:26, November 3, 2009 (UTC)
