Hello

I just added this quote (https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/1111...) and apparently I wasn't very good at proof-reading because it should say 'A wistfulness settles' not 'A wistfulness settle'

So sorry, can this please be edited. I would do it myself if I was able to but sadly I am not.

Correction needed.
While attributed to the author of this book, the quotes don't fit. They have nothing to do with object oriented programming.

This member has apparently quoted himself, but his name was the same as the author of the object oriented programming book, so the quotes got stuck to that book.

Hi
I just added a quote and made a mistake.

The mistake is : She sees love as a thing that is expanding like the universeand if love is . . .

It should read:
She sees love as a thing that is expanding like the universe and if love is . . .

Thanks in advance.

Hi!
I really need your help editing quotes from my book BE YOU. I've been adding BE YOU quotes since its first published edition. BE YOU (alternative title for "Every Boy is a Story") is the final version of this work, set to be the primary edition. I'm a self published author and quotes from the latest version of my book help me promoting it.
Could you please relate all my quotes to the latest version of my book BE YOU?

Thanks a lot for your kind help! I can't thank you enough:)

#535 (Randi) quote fragment removed at the request of the author. Please note that if it had any likes I wouldn't have been able to delete it. (but I could have corrected it so that the quote made sense)

Please allow at least 20 minutes for them to completely disappear - even longer if you are using the app.

#531(Ashleigh) Corrected.
~~#532( Mirella) leaving for another librarian as I am not sure what to do in this instance.~~ Done by a Super
~~#533 (Clare) I can't find a book with this title, but there is a film with this title. As it has 332 adds I can't delete it. This will have to wait for a staff member or a Superlibrarian.~~ A Super is taking care of this.
#534(Andrea) Book changed.

Can I ask that no one deletes their post please. If your issue has been resolved & you no longer wish to receive notifications, please click on Notify me when people comment & select none.

#532 done
When the default edition was changed, it removed the previous title so it showed there was no book attached anymore on the edit page. I then attached them to the new title.

#533 deleting

Re 532: There is no way to select which edition of a book shows up on a quote, although the quote will appear on all editions of the work. (It can take a day or two to appear when new editions are added or combined.)

As the author of that quote does not appear to meet our notability guideline, done.

Hi Bisma quotes on Goodreads are only meant to be by notable people. Also they should be entered under your full name. Can you give me a link that shows me what makes you notable?

Hi!

1. I forget to indicate the book for one of my quotes. It's from La rumeur des lilas. Can you add the title? THANKS!

“le psychologue me tend un crayon
une feuille
et m’enjoint de dessiner mon père

parce que je n’ai pas de père
je trace un chat”
― Stéphanie Roussel

2. And I spelled "poetry" wrong in the tag of this quote : https://www.goodreads.com/work/quotes...

$Madeleine (fracasse_du_jour) | 3 comments$ Super minor, but could the following quote be corrected so that the final sentence ends with a period rather than a comma?

Apologies for my error.

It looks like now there's no punctuation at all at the end rather than a period? Might just need time to update?
