I come with this suggestion to split the contents of this page into other articles. This is basically because we have 4 characters listed under one single name. Also, the page violates several Wiki policies and guidelines: the plot appearances are extremely large if compared with the rest of the article, and the section is extremely overdetailed. The attributes and family section are also just plot re-tell. All of this violates
WP:WAF and
WP:PLOT. The page has also failed to meet notability, as no coverage by a large amount of reliable secondary sources nor any impact in popular culture has been added. Even within the universe, we have alredy merged characters with great importance such as Sirius Black (who have a book named after him) or McGonagall, or with critical/political commentary like Umbridge, or family articles like Weasleys, Potters or Dursleys already split or merged. Because of this, I propose to split the contents of this page into multiple articles:
Move Neville into Dumbledore's Army, his primary role in the series (apart from the prophecy thing, but as Rowling herself said, this didn't give him further role and remained the "tantalising might-have-been").
Move Frank and Alice into Order of the Phoenix.
Move Augusta into Supporting characters: if we have sections for Gabrielle Delacour, Andromeda, Xenophilius, Teddy Lupin, etc., then Augusta perfectly fits there.
I actually like this idea better than merging all of this into
Dumbledore's Army. Neville's article may be semi-good, but I'd rather see it split/merged than being trapped forever in this state. –

Chandler is right. Frank, Alice and Augusta have nothing to do with the D.A. and that's why I propose to split into different articles. This split would include the moving of some information from the "Appearances" section to Frank and Alice rather than Neville, for example the details that inspired Rowling to create the visit to St. Mungo's. This is similar to the case of the Potter and Weasley families, in which the listed characters were moved into different articles. --

It has been over a week and no opposition has come at all. Furthermore, the article remains written in a primarily in-universe style. Given this, the different sections are moved as suggested in the proposal. The page redirects to
Dumbledore's Army#Neville Longbottom. --
