This article is approaching the level of the "detail-oriented" edits we've all come to know and love. If we must have Harry's, Ron's, and Hermione's OWL results, I'd rather these results go into the specific articles for these characters. What do you think? -- Death phoenix 02:56, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
Where do these come from? I'm removing them straight away, both from this page and from NEWT. Pruneau 23:11, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
It was almost certainly meant to be heard as "Owls" - i.e. the acronym sounding like a magical creature. For the "NEWTS" as well.

There have been several edits and reverts to this page and to NEWT over the last few days, about the spelling: O.W.L. or OWL? The thing is, both spellings are used in the books: HBP uses O.W.L., OotP uses OWL, and GoF uses O.W.Ls (only two full stops).
In the first books, it was spelled OWL in the old versions, but is spelled O.W.L. in the new (British) versions. The fact that the most recent book uses O.W.L., and that there have been corrections from OWL to O.W.L. makes me think that we should keep the full stops. If you disagree, please answer here rather than just reverting. Thanks. Pruneau T 10:06, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
In HP book 3 Fred & George Weasley have their OWL exam. They get their results the same time Harry gets his for his normal school exams - still in the schooldays. Harry on the other hand gets his results in the holidays (in book 6). It seems JKR made a mistake here. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 84.189.212.101 ( talk) 14:07, August 22, 2007 (UTC)
