This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize a page, as you did to Peter van Pels, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. A link to the edit I have reverted can be found here: link. If you believe this edit should not have been reverted, please contact me. ¡Dustimagic! (T/C) 04:14, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

Philosopher's Stone is the correct name. It is what the book was originally called an is called everywhere but US. Obviously it would have been changed by someone else already if it was an issue. Your edits to Peter Van Pels were improper because you removed part of his name. ¡Dustimagic! (T/C) 04:23, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

To augment Dustimagic's reply, you've consistently ignored the invisible comments (visible during editing) that clearly state, "EDITORS: Please do not change "Philosopher's"—see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Describing_points_of_view#Nationalism". This means you've also ignored the passage within the article that states, "(released in the United States as Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone)"—in other words, it was "Sorceror's" only in the United States. Wikipedia does its best, per policy, to take a world view. Please respect that. RadioKirk talk to me 04:30, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

Just to emphasize that DustMagic is completely correct. The book (and movie) are called Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone only in the US. Everyhwere else in the English speaking world it is the Philosopher's Stone. DJ Clayworth 04:24, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
