    Yep. Pottermore satisfies all of the criteria set out by the definition of 'canon' - it's work of the author, it's accepted as authentic by the readers, etc.

    I don't *like* Pottermore being canon - I detested Rowling's attempts to 'force' her fans to think her way with the infinite number of interviews she conducted, the TV documentary where she said with a sour face "I know it's not official, but I want people to kowtow to how I see Harry and his friends after DH, because it's my world" (my slight rephrasing :)), how she won't let go, and most particularly how she just says anything that comes into her head with zero thought (but hey, she made billions doing something like that in the first place) - but yeah, it's canon.

    It's canon that is probably inconsistent with the books, but that's normal for Rowling; 'book' canon was internally inconsistent also.

    Some more information on my wand:

    So here's the question to all here on DLP. What wand chose you? What do you think of that wand?
