Photos
For heaven's sake! Not another one!
I'm going to make the same complaint I made about the Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson articles regarding the photos: this article is too short to have two photos and not look ridiculous, especially since (as is currently the case on the D. Radcliffe, R. Grint and E. Watson pages) one of the photos is right on top of the other. Someone needs to either move one of the photos down or delete it all together. It's like someone went through these articles and spammed them with photos; consequently, I am going around to these articles' talk pages and spamming them with complaints. --Hazey Jane 06:22, 19 August 2005 (UTC)
I would argue that this article needs a photo of Tom not in charactorAngielaj 04:34, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
you need to put a phto on it!!!! will look absalootly fine!!!!
Time for a semi-protect?
This article has seen a lot of anon and newbie edits regarding his love life, but the edits are all unencyclopedic, pointless, and above all, uncited. Perhaps it's time for a semi-protect? The next time we see a bunch of edits, I'm putting up the semi-protect unless there are objections here. --Deathphoenix ʕ 05:15, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
- You have my backing, I got fed up of reverting those edits myself yesterday. Death Eater Dan
(Muahaha) 06:21, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
- It might be unnecessary, I might have finally gotten through to Firewhiskeyangel, but we'll see. --Deathphoenix ʕ 15:42, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
- I'm not holding my breath. Death Eater Dan

I told you it wasn't just me! (firewhiskeyangel) I stopped.
I put up a semi-protect following another attempt. I'm only leaving this in for two or three days, then removing it after this time. If it continues, I'll put up the semi-protect again. --Deathphoenix ʕ 01:53, 10 April 2006 (UTC)
- I've removed the semi-protect, but will ruthlessly reinstate it if I see the same attempts again. --Deathphoenix ʕ 14:58, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
- That was really a tactless ad hominem attack on FireWhiskeyAngel, DeathPhoenix. Dragix 20:31, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
New Photo!
I agree with an earlier comment made- a new photo is desperately needed! The current one is at least four to five years old, from around the time of filming either the Sorcerer's Stone or Chamber of Secrets. Tom Felton is eighteen now. It's certainly time for a change. Will someone please un-protect the page for a bit so a more recent (and flattering) photograph of Tom can be submitted?
- Where's the more recent photo? It would be absolutely smashing if you had one that is public domain, GFDL, or some other free one rather than fair use, although, of course, such things are rather unlikely. A free one would be a picture that a fan snapped while meeting him or something. --Deathphoenix ʕ 11:45, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
- Managed to grab a new-ish interview screen shot from the PoA (HP3) DVD Disc 2 ("extras") - should look more up to date and non-Malfoyish than the old original Malfoy publicity photo for the time being. He looks similar here to those pics posted on his web site at TomFelton.com . These types of interview screen shots were used to illustrate the Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, and Rupert Grint articles, as captured and posted a few months ago by RadioKirk . --T-dot 20:03, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
- Someone recently switched the image back to Felton in his Malfoy character costume. This is not proper. We need images of real people "as themselves" whenever possible - not "in character". Thanks. --T-dot 12:38, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
Myspace
This guy have a myspace profile? ive found it the other day and i hope that somebody could confirm it the link is Here thanks!--ometzit 09:37, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
- Lots of people create Myspace profiles for celebrities, but it very rarely is them. The profiles are full of factual errors usually anyway. Lradrama 21:12, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
Playstation Bordello?
This article claims that Tom Felton is filming a movie (or some sort of TV) called "Playstation Bordello." However, I never found any other Tom Felton sites confirm it, nor have I found a movie called "Playstation Bordello." If this is true, at least give us the link to the website that confirms this. Otherwise, please delete it.
Thanks,
Yu Han
- Done - WP:V violation. No such finding in a google search. If someone can find an authoritative source, they can put it back. Thanks for the heads up. Another way to point out such problems is add a { {citation needed} } next to the questionable text --T-dot 11:26, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
Factual error?
Blocked editor User:PEAR has brought the following excerpt to our attention: "For those overseas, we can't drive here until we are 17, so I'm not getting a car until September. So all those websites comments about me driving a Mercedes are completely wrong!" [1] PEAR says the references to his favourite type of car/what he drives needs to be changed. Can anybody familiar with this subject check this out? Cheers, Tangotango 13:32, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
His favourite cars are BMWs, the interview mentioned above is a few years old as he will be 19 in a couple of weeks.
Photo please?
This article needs a photo of the boy JayKeaton 14:07, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
Fangirl?
It's not paticularly harmful to the article, but do we really need to know Tom's favourite foods and fashion labels? This article is edited to read like a fansite. 80.43.9.157
More of an encomium, actually
Should it be added to the "Awards" section that he is the subject of the song "Tom Felton's Kinda Hot" by Draco and the Malfoys? Asat 04:51, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
- Definitely not in the awards section. It should probably only be mentioned if "Draco and the Malfoys" pass Wikipedia:Notability (music), which seems unlikely. Hammer Raccoon 10:59, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
Cleanup of citations needed
Can someone please clean up the references given in this article? I will change the lower case j in Japanese though ;) Thanks Naysie (my tildes key is broken)
References
The references section would look much nicer if transferred to the same style as in, say, Uma Thurman and Lindsay Lohan. For information on how to convert references into in-line citation, see Wikipedia:Citation templates. Tell-Tale Ghost 08:49, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
- I know this section is a mess :( Still working on it... PeaceNT 09:15, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
Home Farm Twins - 2005?
Are you sure this is correct? I watched Home Farm Twins when I was quite young - the short-lived series certainly didn't air just 2 years ago and I'm sure Tom Felton didn't film it as the 4th Harry Potter film was in progress. On IMDb, it says Home Farm Twins aired in 1999, which is more along the lines of what I was thinking. Lradrama 15:09, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
- I haven't checked the table yet, but the info could possibly be correct, Home farm twins originally aired in 1999 but the five season was produced in 2004 or something (see http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0603403/) MuggleNet says Tom did join in the film http://www.mugglenet.com/castspecials/tf/information.shtml. However, I did notice Flixster lays down that it is a rumour. http://www.flixster.com/actor/tom-felton. Gee, not sure yet... I'll go through all the facts again. Thanks for asking the question. PeaceNT 15:40, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
- Oh infact I've just checked IMDb (Tom Felton's profile) and it does say there were unknown amounts of episodes in 2005. I really never knew! I though they were all repeats. How confusing! Thanks for undertaking the research, it'll be very much valued by those who work with / read this article. :-) Lradrama 15:46, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
He is almost 20
And he plays a high-school student in Harry Potter? How does that work out? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.176.14.100 (talk • contribs)
- The same as the rest of the HP actors I would imagine? Or - remember Dawson's Creek? Beverly Hills 90210? Or how about 21 Jump Street? Won't even get into Varsity Blues (film) and Friday Night Lights (film). Lots of close shaving several times a day, (except perhaps for fashionable random chin-whiskers) and extra layers of makeup. Nevertheless, it is a bit amusing to contemplate that the actors in Harry's "age group" would be 23-ish by the time HP7 would (presumably) be released in the Summer of 2010, with the characters portrayed as being 17-ish. --T-dot ( Talk/contribs ) 15:38, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
- I think that is fine, as long as the actor looks young enough. PeaceNT 08:40, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
- It is quite common actually. Bear in mind that the character of ghost Moaning Myrtle is played by Shirley Henderson who was 37 years old when she played the teenage character in the second film. Lradrama 12:41, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
- Not to mention that Christian Coulson was in his mid-twenties when portraying the teenage Tom Riddle in Chamber of Secrets. faithless (speak) 02:45, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

GA review
I have reviewed the article and have concerns about the following:
- The lead needs to be expanded per WP:LEAD, it should be able to stand on its own.
- Lead expanded to appropriate length. PeaceNT 06:23, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
- The early life section is lacking in coverage, is there anything else about his childhood?
- It's rather hard, for he started his career at age 8, so all materials I could find about his early life would all turn out to be about his early career, which don't fit in. PeaceNT 06:23, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
- When you say "the age of X" this could be shortened to just "at age X"
- Done, "there" removed. PeaceNT 06:23, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
- "Felton beat out 400 potentials", the wording "beat out" sounds awkward.
- I rewrote that part, please check if there's anything more need fixing. PeaceNT 06:23, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
- I find the reword "Felton began acting in commercials by winning out over 400 potentials for a coveted advertising campaign" even more awkward. What about "Felton began acting in commercials by beating over 400 young actors for a role in a coveted advertising campaign"? Hammer Raccoon 10:00, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
- I've reworded per your suggestion, "beat" indeed sounds better then "beat out" or "win out". PeaceNT 10:13, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
- I find the reword "Felton began acting in commercials by winning out over 400 potentials for a coveted advertising campaign" even more awkward. What about "Felton began acting in commercials by beating over 400 young actors for a role in a coveted advertising campaign"? Hammer Raccoon 10:00, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
- "The Guildford Cathedral Choir also offered him a position there." The "there" is unnecessary.
- Can the future projects subsection be expanded upon? is this the only information that is known about his future projects?
- Been trying to find more information, not easy, Harry Potter is the only movie he's involved with currently, you know... PeaceNT 06:23, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
- Most of the personal life section reads like crufty trivia, such as "He also enjoys football, rollerskating,....." Can the rest of this section be merged into the early life section?
- Hey, I rewrote the section, please examine if it is okay now. :) PeaceNT 06:23, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
- Are there any free images of Felton available? Could you find one on Flickr that has a Creative Commons license compatible with Wikipedia such as here?
- Hmm, a free image is currently unavailable. I have searched flickr, but all images that showed up unfortunately don't have free license. I'll to email the author to get permission for an image, but this would take time. PeaceNT 06:23, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
- Stability may be a problem because it is unknown if he will be reprising his role as Draco Malfoy, however I don't think this is an immediate concern.
Besides these issues the article has a nice set of citations, there appears to be no original research, the article is written in a neutral tone, and it seems to be stable as of now. Just needs to work on the lead and being broad in coverage. T Rex | talk 14:39, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
- One question, what is the Howard of Effingham in "graduated from Howard of Effingham."? Is it a school? if so what level of schooling? T Rex | talk 09:35, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
- It's a secondary school. PeaceNT 09:45, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
Favourite country USA?
In the article this sentence appears: "His ideal place for a holiday is the United States of America, Felton's favourite country."
Here is the relevant part from the reference, an interview with him when he was 14: "Q: Have you traveled a lot for the premiers and promotions? Where have you gone that you really liked? Tom: My favorite country is America. I love going there! [My family] went to Orlando, Florida, for 10 days to the theme parks and the beaches. It was nice."
Felton's answer indicates his love of the US is down to the beaches in Florida. Saying the US is "Felton's favourite country" implies a certain political preference as well as geographical, which clearly wasn't intended in Felton's own answer, especially as he was barely a teenager at the time. I'm gonna go ahead and remove the "Felton's favourite country" part for now. This is an awful lot of text explaining the removal of three words I know, I just wanted to clearly state my rationale, which is sometimes difficult in an edit summary. Hammer Raccoon 10:22, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
- Yes best to remove even slight POV, especially when it can be misconstrued. T Rex | talk 10:37, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
- Okay, calm down, Hammer. :) No objection to your removal. I really should have been more careful about possible misinterpretation. PeaceNT 10:43, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
- Haha, I am calm! In all seriousness, I just wanted to make sure you understood why I was removing seemingly perfectly acceptable, sourced information. By the way, let me commend you PeaceNT for transforming this article from the mess that it was into a properly referenced piece. Hammer Raccoon 14:06, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
- Thank you, buddy. I'm not the only editor who works on this article though. :) PeaceNT 16:24, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

GA pass
I have passed this article because I believe it meets all the GA criteria. It is well written, well sourced/factually accurate, broad in coverage, written in a neutral tone, and stable. Even though it doesn't have an image this doesn't mean that it should fail. For this article to reach featured status I believe it would need an image. It probably won't be able to be a featured article until his acting career expands past Harry Potter. Congratulations to all who worked on this article. T Rex | talk 16:41, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
- Thank you all for your assistance, and the review! Best wishes, PeaceNT 03:00, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
- This article has really become great over a month's or so time. It's imcomparable with what it looked like before. Major kudos! All Hallow's Wraith 01:04, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
GA Pass
This article has been reviewed as part of Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Project quality task force.

TOM IN THE MOVIE DISAPPEARED
Confirmed that he will be in the horror movie The Disappeared Victoireremains (talk) 11:31, 16 February 2008 (UTC)victoireremains
The Death Note
Under his filmography, Death Note is listed as a movie Tom will be in the future. It leaves no citation. And after searching on the Internet I only found some sites stating its remake and no cast, nor director has been declared. Is there anything out there even remotely hinting at Tom's part in the movie?
Sparklylexa33 (talk) 16:44, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
- I searched the net too but nothing turned up. Death Note is a manga, not a movie so I think most likely the information is incorrect, (but somehow unnoticedly added). Removed. :) --PeaceNT (talk) 16:56, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
Tom Felton in 13 Hours
He's doing a new movie called 13 hours,a picture is available on feltbeats.com in which he has red(blood) all over him-it may be a violent film. But it's okay because he looks ultracute in it!!

Jade Gordon Olivia
There are many signs that this girl is tom's girlfriend. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.179.120.71 (talk) 03:19, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
They are no longer together. He confirmed it last year to his personal website. They posted it on Twitter too. Coolcapable (talk) 06:28, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
Fishing
A suggestion for an update to the page. In an article on July 17 from The GATE (Playing the bully: Tom Felton talks 'Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince') Tom Felton is quoted as saying the following:
A.P.: And speaking of angling I've read you're into fishing as well... T.F.: Yeah, I won't lie, that's one of those quotes that I said when I was twelve that has just plagued me ever since.
A.P.: Oh no... T.F.: No, no. By all means, it's not your fault. I mean, it goes around a lot. The fishing rod has been put down for a few years now and I've picked up the guitar slightly more. I'm still a country boy at heart, and I do love my country pursuits, but fishing has taken a sideline for now. —Preceding unsigned comment added by GATEkeeper (talk • contribs) 21:57, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
Edit request.
The filmography section lists The Lord of the Rings among his appearances, yet this is incorrect as A) the source given for it doesn't list it and B) the year is listed as 2005, but Return of the King came out in 2004. However, I can't seem to figure out how to remove it without messing up the formatting of the table, so could somebody please take care of that? Thanks. 75.121.229.30 (talk) 18:13, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
- Fixed. Andrea (talk) 19:47, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
In-universe phrase
I’m afraid that this phrase: “At age 12, he went to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry” is not that formal, isn’t it? —Fitoschido [shouttrack] \\ 14 August, 2011 [08:06]
- It's just petty vandalism - pretty much all the Harry Potter pages, whether about the books, films, or actors, are being hit lately, what with the release of Deathly Hallows 2. a_man_alone (talk) 16:44, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
Early life section
"He is the youngest of four brothers, and lives in Surrey with his dog Timber."
Is the bold part really necessary there? TFW (talk) 22:47, 23 May 2012 (UTC)
mr Tom Felton I admire you,my name is Christina. I am fine. I hope you are well. what you are busy at this time; I sit at my house right now. What I like most to you is but your music and fishing. yours, Christina. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.210.9.98 (talk) 16:01, 23 June 2012 (UTC)
Place of birth
I don't know who edited Tom's place of birth back to London, but this is wrong!
He was born in Epsom, Surrey!

Breakup with Jade Olivia
All we need to prove that this is not just wishful thinking by jealous fans or pranksters having fun is a source. An answer to the question "how do they know that this has happened?". That is all, but until this comes it will continue to be reverted. Simples. Britmax (talk) 08:00, 4 September 2016 (UTC)
- Might be worth linking to this thread in a future reverts or even adding a hidden note to the article. If that doesn't stop it, then WP:RPP is always an option. -- Marchjuly (talk) 08:42, 4 September 2016 (UTC)
- The article has a hidden note. I put it there myself. Britmax (talk) 08:55, 4 September 2016 (UTC)
- You're right. There's is a note that says "READ THIS BEFORE CHANGING Do not change without sourcing", so sorry about that. Just a suggestion, but maybe wording things a little softer to try and encourage those wanting to add this information to discuss it on the article's talk page might help my be worth a try. Something like "Information about Felton's personal life needs to be properly supported by a reliable source due to Wikipedia's strict policy regarding biographies of living persons. Any contentious information which is not properly supported by a reliable source is subject to removal. Wikipedia needs to which reliable source (for example, newspaper, magazine, etc.) reported this information for it to remain in the article. Please feel free to discuss this on the article's talk page if you have any questions". That's really wordy I know, so perhaps somebody else can come up with something similar. Otherwise, the best that can be done is keep reverting the edits or requesting some form of page protection if things get to be too disruptive. -- Marchjuly (talk) 13:17, 4 September 2016 (UTC)
- If they don't read it now, why would they read all that? Britmax (talk) 13:35, 4 September 2016 (UTC)
- Some people respond differently to different things. Anyways, it was just a suggestion to try a different approach. Now that the page has been protected until October 4, maybe things will quiet down a bit. -- Marchjuly (talk) 13:41, 4 September 2016 (UTC)
- I have put your more explanatory note in.Let's see if that works. Britmax (talk) 18:14, 23 September 2016 (UTC)
- I wouldn't bet the farm on that happening, but miracles sometimes do happen.
Do you know whether this "break-up" might possibly be true? I google it every now and then and nothing ever comes up other than rumor websites like http://en.mediamass.net/people/tom-felton/break-up.html (that site is listed as spam by Wikipedia's blacklist and can't even be used) . It would seem that if they both posted something "official" on social media, then we might be able to use that per WP:BLPSELFPUB, but they do not seem to be in same category as some other celebrity supercouples so I don't know how much coverage such a break-up of the these particular two might get in RS. -- Marchjuly (talk) 23:14, 23 September 2016 (UTC)
- Of course it might be true but if we rely on the blogs and "Tom said it off camera to Feltbeats" we mäy as well shut up shop now. And that's leaving out the fact that most of these changes quote no source, reliable or otherwise. Britmax (talk) 14:28, 27 September 2016 (UTC)

Tom's Girlfriend
Hey guys, If any of you are able to edit Tom's page that would be great. He and Jade broke up almost exactly a year ago. They broke up back in January 2016. It was confirmed both by Tom and his fan page back in May on their twitter accounts (Fan account is Feltbeats). On his instagram they no longer post pictures together and they go back and forth with following and unfollowing. Thanks!

- Please provide the specific tweets that indicate this. Also some secondary sources would help. --‖ Ebyabe talk - Attract and Repel ‖ 05:12, 30 January 2017 (UTC)
Jade played a minor character, she was not a "co star". The character, Astoria Greengrass is not even listed in the HP Characters article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Harry_Potter_characters#G, she is only referenced as the wife of Malfoy. Mattman944 (talk) 22:10, 20 May 2020 (UTC)
- You're probably correct, but the only current source states he "previously dated co-star Jade Olivia for seven years". I've tagged it for a better source. It's been like that for at least 4 years - a little longer won't hurt. Chaheel Riens (talk) 06:22, 21 May 2020 (UTC)
relationship status
Tom is now single. Him and jade broke up last January. So I think it needs to be changed. Liv07pym (talk) 20:05, 29 January 2017 (UTC)
- Please feel free to provide secondary reliable sources to prove this, and the info will be changed. --‖ Ebyabe talk - Attract and Repel ‖ 05:12, 30 January 2017 (UTC)
- People keep changing this and seem to "know" that it happened last January without giving a source. Could you tell us how you came by this information so that the source can be assessed, and if applicable put into the article? Britmax (talk) 12:59, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

Him and Jade broke up. He confirmed the break-up. This should be stated. Dracosbae (talk) 13:40, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
Not done: as you have not cited reliable sources to back up your request, without which no information should be added to, or changed in, any article. - Arjayay (talk) 13:45, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
Personal life edits
I've reverted again, as the insertions while sourced do not use reliable sources. Wikia, YouTube and Twitter are not considered reliable. Additionally there is excessive detail - we don't care that Felton has unfollowed her on Twitter, nor do we care that she is now dating anybody else. The article is about Felton not his ex.
Language and tone are not encyclopedic - "apparently", mixing tenses and other issues. Wikipedia is not Heat. Chaheel Riens (talk) 07:30, 9 September 2017 (UTC)

This article was listed back in 2007, when Order of the Phoenix was brand new. 12 years later, it's had a ref tag for two & a half years and every piece of info added since 2007 in is its own paragraph, on top of an awards table that's completely unsourced. Clearly needs to be delisted. – zmbro (talk) 22:51, 30 August 2019 (UTC)
- Support: A lot of the sources are unreliable, plus refs 18 and 19 are not formatted properly. Also there is inconsistency in usage of websites on refs, awards and nominations has no references and many more issues. --Kyle Peake (talk) 09:45, 7 September 2019 (UTC)

"hriller'
Yo the word 'thriller' is misspelt half way down the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.47.109.178 (talk) 11:15, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

Punctuation and grammar throughout the career section, such as added S’s when the word should not be pluralized, and extra words. Also the profile picture should be updated to a more recent photograph. Nameless stardust (talk) 16:40, 11 June 2021 (UTC)
Not done. Nameless stardust, if you see a typo or a grammatical error, tell us specifically which word to fix. You may propose a new image out of the ones currently at commons at commons:Category:Tom Felton. ◢ Ganbaruby! (talk) 17:22, 11 June 2021 (UTC)

Laertes Link
This is a minor quibble, but surely the Laertes link in the bit about his part in Ophelia should link to the article about the Hamlet character, not the character from Greek Mythology. 73.228.233.12 (talk) 04:28, 3 January 2022 (UTC)

reoccurred is not a word. The word you should use is recurred. 68.150.178.89 (talk) 01:21, 18 August 2023 (UTC)
Done recurred is the better word here (implies periodicity as in recurring role) but reoccurred is a word listed in both the OED and merriam webster. Cannolis (talk) 03:39, 18 August 2023 (UTC)
