Talk:Quotes

Qualifications
Okay, I think there really needs to be some qualifications for quotes on this page, some of them are just too random. (Seriously, what's the point of having "Desmond, shut the fuck up, please."?) In a minute, I'll be removing several based on some standards I propose (which are listed below), but anyone feel free to revert me if you object.

Included quotes:
 * Should be self-contained (not circumstantial, or those that only apply under very specific circumstances, such as Altaïr's "Nine lives in exchange for mine...")
 * Should be substantial or quotable (not necessarily inspirational, but can at least be used out of its original context. When else would one say "He moves like a cat!" or "Don't you recognize me? It's-a me, Mario!"?)
 * Should be short (not really a requirement, but preferred.)
 * Should NOT be included just because they're funny (Ezio's "A minute is all I need. Wait... that came out wrong." is amusing yeah, but I wouldn't call it quotable.)
 * Should NOT be character-specific (quotes that just illustrate a character's personality, such as Shaun's "Hello Desmond. Go away.", might be better found on the specific character's page.)

Also, I'm not so sure what to do with the translations of the guards' quotes. "Pathetic!" and "Who did this? Tell me!" don't exactly meet the standards, but I find it useful to know the translations. For now, I'll just leave them in their own section. =GuardDog 06:28, July 8, 2012 (UTC)
