197:- To think this is about hate is to completely miss the point; there are many very good Harry Potter articles, some of which are Featured and Good articles, and this article just sucks. And why does it suck? Because it has no out of universe information, like "how was the harry potter world developed?" "what were Rowlings inspirations?" That kind of information needs to be included, and if it cant, the article fails notability and doesn't deserve its own article. Besides, there is already a
143:- its has a few cruft and arrangement problems, but that doesn't damage its notability. Knowledge (XXG), the Harry Potter wikiproject and Harry-Potter main articles are better off for being able to link to an article that speaks specifically to these areas without having to reinvent the wheel in each article a place name appears. -
68:
The article is an in universe list of Harry Potter locations, bereft of any out of universe information, so its just a regurgitation of plot information from the Harry Potter books, and since we already have articles for those, this is just duplicative and should be deleted and redirected to
Universe

In what way do you feel it is not notable, Judge? This is precisely the sort of article that people would want to find if they come across an unusual place name in the books (Lord knows I did). Individually, the entries probably aren't super-noteworthy. Could it use clean-up? Hell yeah. But as a
213:- I rather agree that this needn't be (or is even an accurate description of) a fans vs. Everyone Else -type issue. Perhaps you could provide the link the 'Universe of Harry Potter' article, Judge; let us take a look and compare that article with this. -
233:
I put linked it in my comment above; as you will see, it is a broader topic, and will probably be able to intelligently discuss the Harry potter world
Rowling created. The location list offers no such promise.
109:
I don't see any problem with this page, either. so keep (and perhaps cleanup to remove the repeated, redundant introductions that XYZ is a fictional place - from articles merged into the list). -

48:: the argument put out there was "is this notable" and hence "should this be in our encyclopedia", to which the consensus was "yes, it is" and "yes, it should".

But neither of you address my contention, which is that there is insufficient notability. Do you think it does? And what would be the proof of that?
