and this is why i think you've got blinders on the cites aren't for headline usage only perhaps you missed the cite for the observer england july which uses hp for harry potter in the article text not in the headline and doesn't ever spell out harry potter it uses hp only or the atlanta journal constitution july which spells it out hp harry potter in the text not in the headline here's a new one going the other way personally i reckon you're either a fellowship of the rings fotr fan or a harry potter hp girl in this instance a bit of owning up has to be done i've read all the hp books the sunday telegraph january that's also in the text not in the headline if that will help i'll add it to the other discussion as well i stopped digging them up since it was unclear what the problem with the existing cites was
