This thread is for general discussion of page quotes, whether to change, move or remove them.
Unused quotes should be put on a Quotes Wiki page (just replace the namespace in the URL of the wiki page you are making a quotes page for with Quotes/).
Image captions are discussed elsewhere and have their own thread
in the Image Pickin' forum.

Bringing this from the previous page:
So... what do? Trim it down? Cut it outright?
Stock Kisses has two quotes.
"Listen up, Marina, because this is SUPER important. Whatever you do, don't eat th“ “DON'T EAT WHAT?! Your text box ran out of space!”RE: With This Ring, the first quote is way too long, and it shouldn't have 3 quotes to begin with. I think we should cut the latter 2, and trim the first down to just:
Paul: Nothing. Or if I did, I don't know what it was.
For Cruel Elephant, brought up a few pages ago:
Ok, so I'm starting to question this quote from Cicadian Rhythm.
Firstly, it's unnecessarily profane considering it originated from a poster's comment, and secondly, said comment is from the infamous 4chan website.

Why’d you remove it? It technically isn’t violating any rules, it is far from “unnecessarily profane”, and it illustrates how it is a common trend in anime.

I'm also not a fan of the current Cicadian Rhythm quote- it's unnecessarily vulgar, and it's not great that it's from an anonymous post. If we do want to select a new one, here's a few possibilities:
Could shorten it a bit:
According to Tropes Needing TRS, the quote on Ending Aversion is misleading and should be removed.
Suddenly I'm... still rotating Fallen London in my mind even though I've stopped actively playing it.
x7 I like the second entry. I don't think it's that long for a page quote (although you probably wouldn't want it to be much longer); I don't think it needs shortening.

Yes, if it's misuse, it should be cut.
I'm thinking the quote on Film.Yoga Hosers is not really relevant to the film itself. Pull?
I think it's meant to give you an idea of its tone, but a) Fan Myopia b) it's already on the page image.
Persona 5 contains complete transcripts of nearly a dozen songs. Is that kosher?

The current page quote for Twofer Token Minority is just somebody mentioning that she's a black gay woman, with no mention of the relevance of those things. A lot of the examples on the quotes page have various levels of slur in them that may be justified by context or N-Word Privileges but seem unsuitable for a page topper. This one seems pretty good though:
