J.L. Vanders | 14 comments Could you please remove all the quotes under this link? They have no likes, and I didn't add them.

(The third one "Kissing..." is a duplicate of one that I did add myself, so it already appears in another section.)

Thank you very much!

Since they have no likes, the quotes can be removed, but I'm curious where the quote you added yourself is? I only see the three quotes on your profile.

ETA I deleted the first two, but the third one "Kissing..." was added by you. Do you still want it removed?

Thanks for your help! I'm not sure how the kissing one appeared twice on my profile, but here is the link to show it:

It really needs to be on there only once. Either spot is fine with me!
I appreciate it!

lethe | 16380 comments It is actually the same quote in two different sections, Quotes by [Author Name] and [Author Name]'s Quotes. The first section contains quotes from the author('s works) added by anyone in the community, and the second section contains quotes added by the author themselves.

Since you added the "Kissing" quote and it is from your own book, it appears in both sections. So I'm afraid nothing can be done about the duplication.

Pl remove the quote from my author page. Somebody maliciously posted a quote of sexual nature!

Deleted the quote and reported the account that posted it.

You're welcome. You will be pleased to hear that staff promptly removed the spam account.

Amanda Stevens (amandagstevens) | 137 comments I believe this quote should be removed because it's not a quote; it is a reader's review of the book (so weird...).

The person adding the quote had also posted it as a review, so I have scheduled the quote for deletion. It should disappear shortly.
