:::Why not? I found other wikis which use quotes sections, and it looks very nice.-- [[User:Boomboleros7|Boomboleros7]] 22:56, 27 August 2014 (CEST)

::::I didn't say no, I said the title of the section might be slightly misleading. But it's probably better than the current situation anyway. Can you link us to an example on another wiki so that we can see how they deal with it? —[[File:RRRGBAIcon8.png|link=User:Hunchman801]][[File:RRRGBAIcon0.gif|link=User:Hunchman801]][[File:RRRGBAIcon1.png|link=User:Hunchman801]] 23:22, 27 August 2014 (CEST)

:::::Sorry, I didn't disagree with you. I said I like the idea to create a "Quotes" section.

:::::Anyway, you can see exemples on those wikis/wikia : ''[http://biosector01.com/wiki/index.php/Thok#Quotes Bionicle]'', ''[http://www.mariowiki.com/Waluigi#Quotes Mario]'' and ''[http://sonic.wikia.com/wiki/Doctor_Eggman#Quotes Sonic]''.-- [[User:Boomboleros7|Boomboleros7]] 23:48, 27 August 2014 (CEST)

::::::I have nothing about the idea of a "Quotes" section, but in the three links you posted those contain exclusively quotes '''from''' the character, as opposed to the quotes '''about''' the character that we have at the top of our articles. That's exactly what I would expect of a "Quotes" section, and that's why I think moving the "about" quotes there could be misleading. —[[File:RRRGBAIcon8.png|link=User:Hunchman801]][[File:RRRGBAIcon0.gif|link=User:Hunchman801]][[File:RRRGBAIcon1.png|link=User:Hunchman801]] 00:01, 28 August 2014 (CEST)

:::::::Hmm, that's a fair point. I think moving them to some dedicated section would be better, but the problem then comes in the naming, I see what you mean, having it labelled as a Quotes section does imply it's from the character, and not about them. Other than that, could we perhaps move the quotes so that they're part of a relevant section? Most of them tend to stem from various game manuals for respective games, could we move the quotes from say, Rayman 2 quotes on Globox to the Rayman 2 section of his article, and so forth? --[[File:Sig5 2TEST.png|150px|link=User:Master]] 01:07, 28 August 2014 (CEST)
