Talk:Hermione

Why did someone remove this article from Category:en:Harry Potter? The article very much belongs. If you look up "Hermione" on Google or Google Images, almost all your results ar for Hermione Granger. When looking up Hermione Granger on Google or Google Images, i don't even bother writing in "Granger"; writing "Hermione" is enuf.

Likewise, the article Ginevra belongs in Category:en:Harry Potter.--Solomonfromfinland (talk) 17:14, 14 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

It shouldn't hurt to at least include, in the article, a link to the Wikipedia article Hermione Granger.--Solomonfromfinland (talk) 02:09, 7 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

Why do links to the Wikipedia article "Hermione Granger" keep getting deleted? It seems irrational to hav a link to the Wikipedia article "Hermione (mythology)" but not to the article "Hermione Granger"; given that Hermione Granger is overwhelmingly more famous and is overwhelmingly the main person or thing that the popular mind thinks of when it thinks of the name "Hermione". I hav tested it many times: a Google search (whether Google Images or plain Google) of an unqualified "Hermione" givs almost no results that don't refer to Hermione Granger. Besides, this is a double standard: the Wiktionary article "Luna" includes a quote from Harry Potter, referring to Luna Lovegood; said text includes a link to the Wikipedia article on said Harry Potter character. So, when the Wiktionary article "Hermione" includes a quote referring to Hermione Granger, there might as well be a link to the Wikipedia article on said character.--Solomonfromfinland (talk) 18:19, 6 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Even on Wiktionary articles not placed in Category:en:Harry Potter, it is considered reasonable to include links, when appropriate, to Wikipedia articles related to HP. For instance, on the Wiktionary article “Draco” (note: on Wiktionary, unlike Wikipedia, the first letter of an article title is case-sensitive), it says, “Wikipedia has an article on Draco Malfoy”. The Wiktionary article “Luna”, includes a quote referring to Luna Lovegood, and links to the Wikipedia article on said character. And on the Wiktionary article “naga”, i added a link to the Harry Potter Wiki article “Nagini”; in the words of said link, “a Harry Potter character who was probably named after said term (meaning snake)” (link to Wikipedia, as in original); and that edit seems to hav been accepted. (This makes me think that on the Wiktionary article “Hermione”, a link to the Harry Potter Wiki article “Hermione Granger” is appropriate; i added such a link, but it was deleted.)

But on the Wiktionary article “Hermione”, all links to the Wikipedia article “Hermione Granger” hav been deleted, even tho she is nowadays overwhelmingly the most famous use of the name “Hermione”. (A Google search of an unqualified “Hermione” givs very few results that don’t refer to her; in a search of an unqualified “Hermione” on Google Images, the first 50 results often include precisely zero ones that don’t refer to her.) This is a double standard, and does not do justice to Hermione Granger's status as overwhelmingly the most famous use of said name! So a link to the Wikipedia article “Hermione Granger” is more than appropriate. In fact, given that Hermione Granger is overwhelmingly the most famous use of the name “Hermione”; the idea of not including the Wiktionary article “Hermione” in Category:en:Harry Potter, is questionable.--Solomonfromfinland (talk) 16:13, 20 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
