Result: More detailed, in-depth quotes will be used for characters

From what I see, the character articles have a lot of useless quotes under the Memorable Quotes section. I say we decide on what kind of quotes should be added. I suggest we add quotes that define their personalities, or some famous quotes in the fan-base. For example, Amy: Yay! - No They say team-work is a step towards marriage, Sonic. I... hey wait! Come back! - Yes Seriously, uninteresting quotes like "Yay!" and "It's my turn!" or "Okay, let's do this!" shouldn't be under there. I mean, any character can say that. For example no other character can say, "I did it with the power of LOVE!" besides Amy therefore, it is a specific quote that can be added to the Quotes Section. Also, can we add a limit to the number of quotes under the section? Or do we have that rule? And lastly, quotes get replaced over time, a Sonic Adventure quote is sometimes replaced by a Sonic Colors quote. Is that allowed? --58SlugDrones • (Contact) 15:08, January 17, 2012 (UTC) I'm in agreement with this, a ton of the quotes on pages render boring, overused, or unmemorable lines, and as for the limit, I can agree. Maybe about 2-4 quotes per game for the character, would be good. Serious Sam Heavy 16:13, January 17, 2012 (UTC) I'm thinking more like 2-4 quotes per character. -- Supermorff (talk) 18:41, January 17, 2012 (UTC) In that case, choose wisely. At least use two for a main series game, and two for a spinoff. Serious Sam Heavy 18:52, January 17, 2012 (UTC) Or better yet, just use good quotes no matter where they're from. If a character says ten things worth putting on the page, then use all of them - but I don't think many characters have that many. -- Supermorff (talk) 19:11, January 17, 2012 (UTC) (I think a good example of a memorable quote for Amy was when she was talking to Shadow (which for whatever reason was removed)) Aside from that, I don't think there are that many good quotes to put on a character page, Sonic may have just about enough to the limit, an example would be when she's talking to Merlina after she's beaten. Serious Sam Heavy 19:17, January 17, 2012 (UTC) I agree with as many important quotes as possible.--58SlugDrones • (Contact) 05:58, January 18, 2012 (UTC)
