I agree with its deletion. Quirinus Quirrell
Joanne Kathleen
Edit
Is this witch named Joanne Kathleen Rowling like the author (althrough Kathleen is not the authors name)?? If named this then the named should be changed to Joanne Kathleen Rowling. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Danniesen (talk • contribs).
- It is impossible to determine this individual's name from the information we have at the present time. -- Seth Cooper owl post! 01:25, September 5, 2010 (UTC)
Squib?
Edit
How do we know that the in-universe version of J.K. Rowling is a witch? In the introduction of the Tales of Beedle the Bard, she refers to muggle fairy tales as "our fairy tles," and coninues to imply that she is a muggle throughout the introduction. Wouldn't it make more since to assume that she is a squib since she knows about the magical world but speaks as if she is part of the muggle world?Icecreamdif 00:11, September 5, 2010 (UTC)
- That would make sense. I'll make the necessary changes to the article. -- Seth Cooper owl post! 01:25, September 5, 2010 (UTC)
- Then again, she might afterall be a Muggle with a lot of insight on wizardry. Perhaps before 2007, the International Statutue of Secrecy was overruled due to an increase in intermagical marriages, and Muggles and Wizards resolved to live in harmony. J.K. Rowling perhaps is a muggle who documents the lives of wizards and witches, as she did with the famous Harry Potter.
- Or she can be the muggle parent of a muggleborn witch or wizard, or a muggle who married a witch or wizard. We probably shouldn't make any assumptions, since there are quite a few types of people who would identify as muggles but have knowledge of the wizarding world. For all we know, she might just be a muggle who made up all that information about the wizarding world.138.78.102.129 01:57, March 2, 2012 (UTC)
