The reason stated was that this constituted "original research". While that may be true for the first portion I think it is invalid for the anagram. Rowling's Harry Potter works have a strong history of using anagrams to reveal people or objects true intentions: The ] or ] for instance. As such "His name is also an anagram of "An Evil Lord"" should probably be included in the article. Before I reinclude it and start a prospective edit war, though, I'd like to debate its addition here. ] 11:37, 31 January 2007 (UTC) The reason stated was that this constituted "original research".

Page move

I have moved the page because it is standard in British English and the International version of the books, that the abbreviation for mister is Mr (no dot). – AxSkov () 02:35, 3 September 2005 (UTC)

Merge

I think this, and other "minor harry potter" character pages should be merged into a central page. Fancruft ahoy! (Note: I'm an HP fan myself) - 69.207.32.242 08:23, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

Removed Information

The removal by an annonymous IP user (155.144.251.120) of the following passages may not be valid:

- His name is possibly a fusion of the Greek name "Evander" ("good man") with "olive"; the tree tied in Greek myth to Athena, the goddess of wisdom. Hermes' wand, the caduceus, may have been made of olive wood. Otherwise, it may be a variation of the sound of the words "all" and "wand". - His name is also an anagram of "An Evil Lord".

The reason stated was that this constituted "original research". While that may be true for the first portion I think it is invalid for the anagram. Rowling's Harry Potter works have a strong history of using anagrams to reveal people or objects true intentions: The Mirror of Erised or Thomas Marvolo Riddle for instance. As such "His name is also an anagram of "An Evil Lord"" should probably be included in the article. Before I reinclude it and start a prospective edit war, though, I'd like to debate its addition here. Coricus 11:37, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
