Notes
When the 2014 Quidditch World Cup final match report was published on the original Pottermore, the graphic image indicated that it was an edition of the Evening Prophet.
The 2014 tournament was released on a daily basis. It was very exciting for fans to be able to read the match reports as if they were receiving wizarding newspapers delivered in "real time".
