This is why I said "JKR somewhat contradicts herself". I should have said
that "JKR contradicts herself".

1. Rowling said: A charm involving secret information hidden within the soul
of a Secret-Keeper. This information is irretrievable until the
Secret-Keeper chooses to reveal it; ***those who have the secret revealed to
them cannot reveal it to others***. [from wiki not an exact quote from JKR]

2 Rowling said [through Mr Weasly] that those who were told by the original
Secret Keeper would all be Secret Keeper when the original Secret Keeper
dies. "Mr. Weasley had explained that after the death of Dumbledore, their
Secret-Keeper, each of the *people to whom Dumbledore had confided*
Grimmauld Place's location had become a Secret-Keeper in turn."

So much for creating a secret, and killing the keeper. If the keeper
can tell others before death, they become new keepers.

4. Rowling said [through Hermione] are that Yaxley now 'has the secret' can
take people in with him by side-along apparition.

Of course, Hermione could be guessing, and this is not a fact. Did
Yaxley ever being people there?

All 5 statements call not be true there forth JKR contradicts herself.

And she answered on her site something completely different that she
has Arthur say. That the secret dies with the keeper, wasn't it?
