Thomas White | 3 comments almost all the quotes on this page:
https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
are infact quotes by another author with the same name:
https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
and should be removed from the incorrect author

Arenda | 26448 comments I've moved all the quotes that were listed from Humble Pi and Things to Make and Do to the correct Matt Parker: https://www.goodreads.com/author/quot...

If any of these remaining quotes https://www.goodreads.com/author/quot... also need to be moved, please let it know.

Thomas White | 3 comments thanks. the one about the domino computer, DNA reproducing and different dimensions are also quotes of the other Matt Parker.
sorry i cant work out how to refrance/link the quotes directly. let me know if i need to clarify


message 4: by Arenda (new)

Arenda | 26448 comments Moved three more quotes.

It is not very intuitive, but you can access the page of a specific quote through the "0 likes" (or whatever number of likes the quotes has) which is a link to the quote page.

Thomas White | 3 comments thanks for the tip and for fixing the quotes. you are right that is not at all intuitive


message 6: by Arenda (last edited Aug 07, 2021 08:08AM) (new)

Arenda | 26448 comments The remaining three quotes were by two other authors with this name. Also moved those to the right profiles.
