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/) or, if they don't have an article, on Quotes Looking for an Article.
Image captions are discussed elsewhere and have their own thread
in the Image Pickin' forum.

Think I have a better quote for Conlang
Trans Siberian Anarchestra (it/they)

I think that's worse, because Italian is a real language and it only says otherwise as a joke.
Sidenote regarding #12043: Should Fully Ramblomatic quotes be included in the Quote Source page for Zero Punctuation, or should it be seperate? Should it just be converted into quotes from Yahtzee in general?
Welcome, traveller, welcome to Omsk
I don't think the current Conlang quote is all that great, but a joke quote like that isn't really an improvement.
Rookie Trope Repairer
Quotes.Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers has excessively long passages of dialogue in the Story Quotes folder. In fact, in one case, it quotes an entire scene. Surely that's unnecessary?
...I realise I might be in the wrong thread. Is there a space dedicated to cleaning up quote pages specifically?

Google searches and the mention of the "page quote" on page imply that it came from a (fan translation?) of Full Metal Panic!: Dancing Very Merry Christmas, but since it's not easily confirmable, should it be replaced with something?

WOOOOOOW
Probably best to change it for reliability reasons. I think the best replacement options are either the Narbonic quote from the Quotes page or the Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade quote from the Films - Live Action folder.
Also, what do you think of this quote suggestion for Half-Witted Hillbilly (could also be shortened to only the last two lines):
Jed: Did you say something, ma'am?
Laura: What a stupendous intellect.
Jethro: That's 'cause I grad-gee-ated the sixth grade, ma'am. Only took three years!

WOOOOOOW
Wait, I just found another quote, maybe this one's better than the Beverly Hillbillies one:
Well, when Hayseed says it like that, I’m half-tempted to go to school just so I don’t end up sounding like him."
Prince of puns
I've been working on Peter and Company for some time, and just realized something; I see the page quote as following.
But whoever added it neglected to state where the quote came from; the story tab on the website
I happen to know where this particular quote came from and where to link it, but I'm not sure if I'm authorized to do that in particular. Is it ok if I put where this quote came from? I've done it before with NonPack, I'd be more than happy to do it for this one!
Very Spooky
I prefer your first suggestion; it's more concise.
That's fine.

Maintenance?
We recently cut the lead quote from Disney Death due to complaining, and are debating which of the following quotes at Quotes.Disney Death to use as a replacement:
Radioactive Man: Ooooh!
Bartman: — He's alive! I should have known! He always comes back in the comics!
Officially intimidated
The second is more indicative, IMO.
135 - 158 - 273 - 191 - 188 - 230 - 300
Maintenance?
Okay, the Radioactive Man quote it is.
"Cool. Coolcoolcool."
Carrying on from the CM cleanup thread, some potential for Sandbox.Monster Marvel Fan Works:
Spider-Man: You touch a single hair on that kid's hair and I swear to God I'll-!
Carnage: What? [Turns hand into axe] Don't you wanna hear the punchline? (...) To prove it had guts!
Personally, I prefer the Carnage one.
Fan-Preferred Couple cleanup thread
I'd be good with either though I do lean more towards the Carnage one as well.
I prefer the Carnage quote.

The page quote on Transplanted Character Fic is rather complainy. A replacement doesn't immediately spring to mind, though.
Trouble Cube continues to be a general-purpose forum for those who desire such a thing.
Officially intimidated
I have no familiarity with the trope, sadly, so I can't think of a replacement suggestion either. But the current quote has to go regardless.
135 - 158 - 273 - 191 - 188 - 230 - 300
Collector of Worlds
For the Carnage quote, I do have to mention I forgot to add a comma after 'Fine'. Also, Spider-Man's line is in italics. Sorry if being pendantic.

I have found a new planet for you. They have destroyed our ships and closed our portals. It is a planet in rebellion.

Swapped the Carnage quote in and fixed .

Both are very nice.
