Corrected entry: At the end of Chapter Twelve, when Harry is in Professor McGonagall's office, he repeats what Hermione said about the Ministry interfering at Hogwarts. McGonagall responds with "I'm glad you listen to Hermione Granger." However, Hermione made the statement when she, Harry, and Ron were sitting in the Great Hall during the Welcoming Feast. McGonagall was at the staff table and should not know what Hermione said.

Corrected entry: In the scene where Malfoy is taking points off Harry, Ron, Hermione and Ernie Macmillan at the start of chapter 28, Ernie states that Prefects can't take away house points, but in "The Chamber of Secrets" Percy Weasley takes ten points from Griffindor because Harry & Ron are in Moaning Myrtle's.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
Corrected entry: In Chapter 17 Harry hands an injured Hedwig to Professor Grubbly-Plank who says "Thestrals will sometimes go for birds, of course." The next paragraph states that "Harry neither knew nor cared what Thestrals were". However, in Chapter Ten there is a discussion about them between Luna Lovegood and Harry who can both see them pulling the carriages, as well as a paragraph where Harry is pointing them out to Ron.

Correction: From McGonagall's comment, it can be inferred that she knows he wasn't really paying attention. And as the resident brainiac is one of his best friends, it's not that big of an educated guess for her to assume Hermione understood Umbridge's speech and explained it to Harry.
