Hi, i was trying to add more tags to our quotes and thought i could delete a quote and re-post it. I ended up duplicating quotes. Could you please help me delete the the duplicated quotes in this link. Thank you so much:https://www.goodreads.com/author/quot...

Deleted four dupes.
Hi, I just entered this quote but I made a spelling mistake, can someone correct it for me pleasethe mistake is a missing t on "the" and the word "the" immediately before "my" should be deleted.
The quote at the moment reads:
“I had no memory at all of Sarah and I was completely free from anxiety, jealousy, insecurity, hate: my mind was a blank sheet on which somebody had just been on he point of writing a message of happiness. I felt sure that when the my memory came back, the writing would continue and that I should be happy.”
but it should read:
"I had no memory at all of Sarah and I was completely free from anxiety, jealousy, insecurity, hate: my mind was a blank sheet on which somebody had just been on the point of writing a message of happiness. I felt sure that when my memory came back, the writing would continue and that I should be happy."

Hi, can you delete the "in" in "roamin' in the countryside" here:https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/3210...
Thank you!
Hi, can any Super Saiyan Librarian fix this qoute, please? The accurate transcript of the quote is as follows:Religion has actually convinced people that there's an invisible man living in the sky who watches everything you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a special list of ten things he does not want you to do. And if you do any of these ten things, He has a special place full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish, where he will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry forever and ever, till the end of time… but He loves you. He loves you. He loves you and He needs money!

Done. I added the next line of the joke as well.
Hi, can someone attribute this quote to 'Matt space space Lewis' and not me? I'd love to take credit, but, I never wrote it. https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/2820...
Can you change the third word here to voudrais (with an "r") from voudais? Thanks!https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/3246...
Also, I added a Jim Morrison quote yesterday and suddenly it had 26 likes already! Some from over two years ago! How the heck does that happen? I can only guess it was the same as a deleted quote that had likes? It's here:
https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/6057...
Anyway, it's not a problem, but just strange!
The quote may have been merged together by a librarian, hence the likes form over 2 years ago. And also when I looked at the quote it already said "voudais" so somebody must have changed it.
Sharon, that is why you should search for a quote before you add it. Librarians spend a lot of time dealing with duplicated quotes.
I just created this quote, but forgot to put what book it's from. https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/3247...
Could you please add that it's from Crookedstar's Promise?
This quote has surfaced everywhere as being stated by Stephen King, when it was not. He made comments on Twilight and Harry Potter but not this. The person who said this is Robin Browne.Here is one link explaining: Quotebuster

This one keeps coming back. It isn't by Stephen King but Robin Browne is not notable according to Goodreads rules. So we will delete it. Again.

Hellohttps://www.goodreads.com/quotes/3248...
I added this quote and chose the book that I got the quote from (Finding Darwin's God) but it's not showing the name of the book next to the author's name like the other quotes. I tried adding it again but it's still not showing. Can someone please fix it?

You say that "these tags makes this quote look clumsy" but that can be said of any quote with over 60 tags.

Thanks!
