Please edit or correct or delete this quote. (part 6)
Clare wrote: "Thank you, Carol."Thats ok. I've gone with my own feeling that a recipe isn't a quote & deleted it (there were no likes) so #755 is complete.
Mispelling in this quote that I added: https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/1155... it should read "We have no real connection to the things we wear" instead of "...things e wear" thank you
Hi. could you please delete the three other editions of this quote? I accidentally posted it four times instead of one. Below is the correct version.“Thank you for making me be able to forget.
Thank you for making me too.
Thank you for making me forget.
Thank you for making me.
Poem - Sounds I Would Make To God The First Time I Lived After I Died. (Tomorrow).”

Thanks.

#756 done
#757 the first one was page not found. I have deleted the others but this was spam. In future could you please flag as spam or contact Support.
Thank you Carol, I wasn't sure which it was.

I think I got them all. Please allow at least two days for them to correctly display, then post here if I missed any.
With this type of edit you don't have to worry if your quotes have any likes. If you wanted a quote deleted that had likes, librariaans can't do that.
In future could you number your quotes. This makes it a lot easier to keep track. :)

Thank you so much for doing this!
I will number quotes in the future, I can imagine the tangle!
Thank you again :)

Uh . . . it is I who missed one (and it actually has likes for goodness sake!)

Carol She's So Novel, if you are the librarian who sees this, I had a little snoop on you - as in I clicked on your profile by mistake and then read it - you're a fellow Kiwi! No wonder you are so lovely and helpful :)

Ok done. As before, due to caching this may take a while to show up, but it has been done.
& thanks for the kind words! I never mind people looking at my profile - my life is an open book! Hahahaha, open book! I kill me!

XD and thank you!
I accidentally added an incorrect quote to my novel "Bluebeard's Castle." The quote reads:He carried her across the sand in his strong arms, and she opened her eyes and looked up at him adoringly. She thought that the image must have carried a certain eerie romantic charm, like Dracula carrying off his victim.
And it should read:
He hoisted her up in his strong arms, and she opened her eyes and looked up at him adoringly. She thought that the image must have carried a certain eerie romantic charm, like Dracula carrying off his victim.
Thank you!
Hello, I would like to ask to remove my quote. https://www.goodreads.com/work/quotes... There is the same quote twice, once without a period at the end. Can you remove that quote, please? It starts with "Děsilo mě (...)". Thank you so much!
I screwed up two quotes, one needs to be deleted and the other edited. Please delete:
https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/1160...
And please add a period at the end of this quote, after the word 'society' :

Thank you! And I am sorry I am soooooo ADD!

Please fix this quote - my phone autocorrected ‘religious’ to ‘delicious’ and even though they are at a brunch this takes away from the gravity of the text. Thank you! https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/1161...
Lamya H, Hijab Butch Blues
You all know I’m queer, but I still have to play the cool hijabi[…] The not too religious
hijabi, the hijabi who can rock it with the alternative crowd, who won’t judge you, who will be accepting and tolerant, the Good Muslim. I’m in full on silent rant mode now. Unlike those Bad Muslims, the religious ones, the ones who are inconvenient in their practice, the ones you have to pause for as they break their fasts, the ones who have to step out to pray. The marginalized ones you would fight for, organize for, protest for, but would never be friends with, who you would studiously avoid at a brunch. I’m the cool hijabi only because you’re projecting your xenophobic narrow-mindedness, your lack of imagination of Muslims into me. You’re still projecting them. Your prejudices are still in the room. ”
Hello, Can you please change the second "it" to "if" in the following quote?

Done. Please allow at least half an hour for the change to display, (much) longer if you are using the app.

I can delete this quote for you, but I just want to check. Would you be happy for the quote to remain if the typo - feminsts - was corrected?
Hi, this person has been having a laugh and posting inappropriate quote content. Here is a list of the quotes that need a look.https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/list...
#804 removed them as it were mostly his own quotes (are not valid) or in other way invalid quotes.
Incorrect word: Please change the word anymore to anyonehttps://www.goodreads.com/quotes/1162...
Please add that this quote comes from the book Set Boundaries, Find Peace: A Guide to Reclaiming Yourself by Nedra Glover Tawwab. This quote is also missing words. It should start with "After reading this book, you know that (rest of quote available...)" The book title in the quote should also be italicized.

Thanks!
Nadine wrote: "Hello, please would it be possible to delete the quote from my profile?

I have moved it to this author's quotes & fixed typos & punctuation.

Moderators & other librarians. This quote has a quote within a quote - which I haven't struck before. This is credited to the book & author in the quote - is this allowed?

#758 (Kristin) Done. It's kind of complicated to explain, but your author has a common name which Goodreads differentiates by having invisible spaces. So your add went to the default profile, which is why you couldn't find the book title.
