Politics of JK Rowling

Following the process suggested by WP:BRD, let me explain here why I removed this section. It seems illogical that the politics of an author can be a sub section of the politics of a fictional work created by that author. It also seems strange that this is now becoming the place where random facts about the author's politics are being noted, years after the work and in ways that have nothing to do with that work. There is a section in the article J. K. Rowling on her politics which this content could be moved to, although personally I think the section there is sufficient and all the individual things about her political views detailed here are not necessarily notable, but that would be a conversation for that article. However, keeping this section here makes no sense, it does not belong to the topic given the title of the article, as well as the opening paragraph which clearly delineates the focus of this article to be published discussion/analysis of the Potter series. I propose it should be removed. Melcous (talk) 12:55, 11 July 2018 (UTC)

Excessive examples

I've tagged this article for having excessive examples. It should not be a full list of every statement or analysis ever made about the subject. This article needs to be rewritten to discuss the broad themes, sparingly giving specific examples of individual critics' opinions when necessary. And if a certain theme or viewpoint has only been commented on by one critic, it probably doesn't have enough weight to be included in this article at all.

I agree - too many quotations as well.

I removed some WP:OR and flagged other citations that don't seem notable (no need to publish blog opinions) Superb Owl (talk) 03:50, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

Voldemort as critique of Nietzschean ideal

There are some articles out there on the internet, which describe Voldemort as being an attempt to create a Nietzschean superman, both academic and I suppose a superficial tweet by Dan Hitchens. If the Death Eaters are fascists metaphorically, then this makes lots of sense — Preceding unsigned comment added by StrongALPHA (talk • contribs) 16:36, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
