Thanks.So, I am guessing you just removed the quotes? Is that what should be done for things like that in the future?

Not automaically, No. Certainly not. In this case the quotes were poor, could not be attributed to anyone 'notable', and had only been liked by the person who added them. So they went. If the quote can be attributed to someone 'notable' then they can stay.
A non-attributed quote that has been liked can be deleted. It must be attributed to someone or else be generally accepted as anonymous.
Thanks, did not state it above, but that is what my brain was thinking would be the rules behind it.
I hope I'm posting in the right thread.The quotes on this author's page: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
actually belong to this author:
