This was tagged for speedy deletion by
User:212.219.207.40, without citing a reason. I don't think it needs to be deleted, but I don't know enough about Harry Potter to know if this is a valid article or not, so I'm listing it here.

This user is one of a group of 4 IPs (212.219.207.40/1/2/3) who have been all reprimanded for mass vandalism: they seem to cruise around as a group. The article looks quite valid so I think it's merely been the victim of a vandal attack --

Keep for completeness. Just because an anon tagged it with a speedy doesn't mean it should end up on here, imho. This particular one doesn't even come close to meeting any deletion criteria [[User:Xezbeth|

Delete: It could even be a speedy delete. As someone who has read all five of the books, I never saw "kneazles" anywhere. I remember the cat well, but there was never any explanation of why it was so ornery. As for this coming from some expanded universe thing, look what it claims: from a thing "ultimately by JK Rowling." Ultimately by? All proceeds go to some of the poorest children in the world? Is it an ad? Who are these children? Everyone is someone's child, after all. If it really comes from some Rowling-authorized thingie, then the most would be a redirect alone. Her novels are notable, but "guides to fabulous beasts" are just members of the entourage around the star; like them, they have borrowed fame.

No, the book that this was taken from was indeed written by Rowling and is considered 'canon', and I believe that the proceeds of the book went to charity, not that it has any relevance. Even if this article is deleted it'll probably be resurrected after the 6th book is released. [[User:Xezbeth|

Comes from "Fantastic beasts and where to find them" which was indeed a charity book. JK Rowling also mentioned Crookshanks was a kneazle in an interview, so Redirect. [[User:MacGyverMagic|

Seems pretty clear from the above it's either keep or redirect. It might be worth keeping and using as a hook on which to hang some discussion of the phenomenon of Rowlings extending her fantasy world beyond the novels themselves. --
