Great list[]

Hi, I only wanted to say: This list is great. The characters are not lost and you can read about all of them on one page. Great work!  Harry granger   Talk  contribs 18:13, July 31, 2012 (UTC)

Yep. I said it before, but I'll say it again, it's a great job. The information isn't lost, but it's no longer scattered across a bunch of pages. ProfessorTofty (talk) 20:30, July 31, 2012 (UTC)
Yes, it is a fantastic compromise between 'deleting' and 'keeping'. I also think that this should be done to 'unidentified students', unidentified wizards', and 'unidentified followers of Voldemort'. --94.191.185.231 18:31, August 2, 2012 (UTC)

At Flourish & Blotts and quidditch spectator at Hogwarts[]

"1992 Quidditch spectator beside Irma Pince"

ByPince

The woman as we know at the moment, watching Quidditch.

I just found this woman in the scene at Flourish & Blotts when introducing Lucius Malfoy. You can clearly appreciate by her hat and clothes, that she is the same. So we can say that the adults attendants at Quidditch matches are not necessarily Hogwarts' employees, maybe they can be ex-students too. Here are the pictures of her watching Quidditch as we know at the moment, and in Flourish & Bloots near to Ron Weasley as I just have identified:

Wow! Nice catch! I imagine Hogwarts would allow villagers in Hogmeade to attend matches, (who would presumably have come to know some of the students playing through Hogsmeade weekends or, given how small the magical community is, knew them/their parents beforehand). Which is not to say I exclude the idea of other alma matars attending as well, though unless they are parents, which, from a purely hypotetical, in-universe perspective, this witch might be, I don't quite see why witches and wizards would travel between countries for a school match when you have the British and Irish Quidditch League and the European Cup going on at the same time. Alternatively, it could have been Madam Lucinda Thomsonicle-Pocus, the Chief Attendant of Witchcraft Provisions for Hogwarts. Then again there is no way of knowing either, since nothing is set in stone by canon, but still, nice catch! :-D Maester Martin (talk) 07:08, October 16, 2018 (UTC)

Realized the below was essentially a different topic; relocated from the above since the core issue had been taken care of. --Sammm✦✧(talk) 07:04, 11 December 2021 (UTC)

It's [#1992 Quidditch spectators] just a thought.

That being said, I hope I don't sound racist by raising this, I do find some of them looking somewhat alike?

In fact, for the older dude, it's even stated to be the same person described in "White-bearded attendant"; so for him at least, I think I'll wait for a week to combine sections, no need for appearing twice. Not sure about the younger dude though. --Sammm✦✧(talk) 05:49, October 16, 2018 (UTC)

Unidentified Hogwarts Healers[]

Wizardkind[]

Some have suggested the idea that any of the individuals may somehow be Squibs, and as this article does not belong in the Wizards category. Personally I disagree with this evaluation; whilst Filch is a Squib employed at Hogwarts, he is not an academic member of staff, simply the Caretaker. Furthermore, all these individuals are shown wearing wizarding attire; Squibs do not dress like this; they are broadly not members of the Wizarding World and live in the Muggle world due to their lack of magic. Even in this article. everyone is labelled a wizard or witch in their short descriptions. 

People who are indeed Squibs find out very young about their inability to perform magic. Therefore, none of them would therefore hold respectable positions at Hogwarts or wear wizarding clothes, because they just would not. RedWizard98 (talk) 02:40, March 7, 2019 (UTC)

We know almost nothing about all the individuals shown on this page. While trying to avoid having separate articles for each of these makes some sense, joined altogether in a single article about all you can say is they are "unidentified individuals at Hogwarts". Could be staff or guests - we have seen individuals from the MoM visiting during feasts and know that even Muggle parents have visited - and we have no idea as to their wizarding abilities (especially as most (or none?) of them are seen doing any magic. In short, this article should likely be cleaned up to remove all the speculation that has been gathered here. --Ironyak1 (talk) 02:50, March 7, 2019 (UTC)


In that case I would produce separate articles for each of these individuals, with their own infoboxes. Whilst I agree that the demonstration of magical skills is the clearest indicator of someone being Wizardkind, many witches and wizards shown in places like Diagon Alley and the Ministry for example are never shown using magic themselves, as they are simply incredibly minor background characters who only serve as background fillers. RedWizard98 (talk) 02:58, March 7, 2019 (UTC)

Attendant with a moustache and goatee and Sikander[]

Do you think that the characters resemböe each other enough to mergethe two articles? We did the same with Sinistra and Vektor when LEGO Harry Potter was released.Rodolphus (talk) 06:02, 3 March 2021 (UTC)

I think we could continue this discussion in the Articles to be merged talk page. Nevertheless, I don't think the two are resemblant enough. It's just their moustaches and goatees, the dressing styles are not similar at all to me. MalchonC (talk) 07:33, 3 March 2021 (UTC)

Felton's grandpa:[]

According to Felton, as seen here, his grandfather was portraying a member of the teaching staff, specifically. Tfoc (talk) 13:31, 20 March 2021 (UTC)

Confirmed employees?[]

Sorry to ask this question relatively late; how do we know the following individuals are in fact employees of Hogwarts?

Any other time I probably wouldn't question, but it's not like non-Hogwarts employees that are grown-ups hadn't participated the Battle of Hogwarts? Like Weasley family and members of the Order of the Phoenix. Can anyone identify who their portrayers are? Originally I was going to list another one, but the actor was in fact noted to be a Hogwarts teacher, so it might be helpful. --Sammm✦✧(talk) 07:26, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
