Muggle
Hi. I linked to WP:NOTBROKEN because you reverted the wrong edit. Instead of re-adding your unsupportive, you reverted the edit in which I changed Fictional universe of Harry Potter to the redirect mudblood. So, perhaps I'm not the one who's confused about what they're doing. Now, regarding that unsupportive, it's still irrelevant in the context of the sentence. It's not that it's completely wrong or that it's false, it just makes no sense to mention it in there. That sentence is just listing relevant Muggles, and it's not like there's other non-magical living relatives of Harry's to compare against, so that unsupportive doesn't add anything of substance, it's unnecessary and it makes the sentence sound unencyclopedic. Lastly, I find it quite bold and pretty inaccurate to call six edits in the span of five days in an article I've never edited before attempts at article ownership, and it's far from assuming good faith.

 * You're right I reverted the wrong edit, I'm not quite sure how it happened but it was my mistake, sorry for that. Assuming good faith is challenged when offering of alternatives is met with no compromise or consideration other than continual reversion. I am trying to find a good fit to improve the article and have attempted compromise based on your feedback, when it is still met with blanket deletion it is more difficult to feel the good faith. Now that we hopefully know we are both aiming to improve the article, let me state: the paragraph in question is quite messy and really needs a clean-up anyway. Further, the unsupportive is not to distinguish them from any other book characters but rather to qualify the statement regarding his relationship with them, and their relationship to magic (ideally with a single word, re. messy paragraph).
 * With one word we can convey:
 * 1. Some Muggles, while being aware of magic, do not support magic.
 * 2. Harry's only living relatives are not supportive of him.
 * The paragraph is not a list of Muggles where qualifying statements may not fit, but rather the context is Muggles who do know about magic, therefore some detail regarding their attitude towards to magic and magic users is relevant for the reader. If you want to collaborate on strengthening the paragraph together (or possibly even finding a better word if you prefer?) I would be quite open to it.
