Order of the Phoenix affiliation[]

he In the affilation section of the infobox it says Order of the Phoenix. Do we have any proof that he was in the Order? --Freakatone 12:45, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

I couldn't find any reference to it, so I removed it. - Cavalier One(Wizarding Wireless Network) 15:19, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

Article clean-up[]

This article needs cleaned up. It's repetitive and basically nothing but quotes. Mr Norrell 09:09, December 9, 2009 (UTC)


I undid the revisions I did because they were nothing but speculation. Mr Norrell 14:13, January 3, 2010 (UTC)

Kettleburn on Pottermore?[]

Can we assume that Kettleburn appears on Pottermore, and Vector and Babbling do as well?

In the very last scene, we get a view of the staff table.

We can see:

  • Dumbledore in the middle

On Dumbledore's left side:

McGonagall, Snape, two unkowns (Vector and Babbling?)

on the other side: an unkown ( Sinistra taking the film into account)

  • Sprout
  • an unknown (Kettleburn?)
  • Flitwick (the only bearded teacher except Dumbledore)

Absent:

  • Trelawney (She says she rarely attends the feasts)
  • Binns, (Being a ghost, we coild identify him easily)
  • Filch, Pince and Hooch (possibly because they aren´t professors. On the other hand, Hagrid isn´t one at this point either.)

We don´t have enough evidence to counclude who is who, but we can add Pottermore as a possible appearance.--Rodolphus 11:28, April 15, 2012 (UTC)

Unless they taught Alchemy that year, I would tend to conclude that that professor is Kettleburn, given that Muggle Music, Xylomancy, etc. were not creations of Rowling's and would not be included on Pottermore. -- SaXon 17:15, May 18, 2012 (UTC)


Should we add it then? The Muggle Studies teacher seems to be absent as well.--Rodolphus 13:13, May 19, 2012 (UTC)

I think it should, at the very least, be put in "behind the scenes". -- SaXon 19:12, July 9, 2012 (UTC)

Death?[]

I have just read the entry on the Pottermore Insider and I wondered: At which point is it indicated that Kettleburn has died?--Rodolphus (talk) 13:13, January 9, 2015 (UTC)

Kettleburn is described in the past tense: "the former Care of Magical Creatures teacher was fond of daring adventures and dangerous magical creatures". Every other Insider entry about a character's birthday is either present tense or ambiguous. It seems pretty clear to me that his death is implied, but I'd be willing to debate the point if others disagree. -- 1337star (Drop me a line!) 19:37, January 9, 2015 (UTC)

Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery[]

Hi all! I'm not sure if this question would appear in other situation, but during the Flying Class in Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery (I'm still in Year 1;) when Merula Snyde challenged me this question, "who is the Care of Magical Creatures professor?" (don't remember the exact wording) Silvanus Kettleburn is the correct answer. Not sure if because of this, "Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery" should be added to his appearances (at least as "mentioned"?) --Sammm✦✧(talk) 20:44, April 26, 2018 (UTC)

I agree, but you will have to put "mentioned" by it because they are not known to make an actual appearance yet. Perhaps in year three they will! - Kates39 (talk) 21:00, April 26, 2018 (UTC)

It was confirmed in an interview that he will appear.

Possible appearance in 1st movie[]

HP1HalloweenProfessors

This unknown professor next to Aurora Sinistra appears a few times during the 1st movie and I think it's implied to be Kettleburn, even though he misses body limps. What do you guys think? 

20:45, March 17, 2019 (UTC)PokeFanClaire (talk)

I think this is this individual, Unidentified Hogwarts employees#White-bearded attendant? (Sorry if it isn't lol.) But yeah, it's been noted that it might be him, there just don't seem to be a way to find out unless the actor was found and he was actually credited as such; if not, it'd at most be in the BTS section with the lack of confirmation. --Sammm✦✧(talk) 06:31, March 18, 2019 (UTC)
Yes, very true, Kettleburn hasn't been confirmed to be in any of the films, and the article should therefore reflect this. RedWizard98 (talk) 09:38, 27 January 2022 (UTC)

CS mention?[]

When was Kettleburn mentioned in CS. His subject was mentioned, but was Kettleburn himself also mentioned?Rodolphus (talk) 07:50, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

Did a text search in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets and couldn't find any mention of Kettleburn - edit undone for now. Would need a quote to make clear the mention in case I missed something. Cheers --Ironyak1 (talk) 16:09, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

Secrets of Dumbledore Deleted Scene[]

In Secrets of Dumbledore, there is a deleted scene where Dumbledore, McGonagall, and a third person were in the Hogwarts Owlery. The third person looks like Kettleburn, at least from the Hogwarts Mystery game. And the way Dumbledore told this person to take care of the owl, kind of fitting for a Care of Magical Creatures professor.

I don't know the procedure for uploading picture/video on here. The scene is actually on YouTube. Maybe you or someone else can upload it on here for everyone else. Thanks. Seasrmar (talk) 20:58, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
