I removed the warnings as to sourcing and tone. I believe the sourcing warning was not well-taken in the first place, as it should be clear that the article is primarily based on The Yale Book of Quotations, an authoritative reference book itself. For the NPOV concern, I added a comparison to Bartlett's to show that its coverage of traditional literary quotations is more extensive than Yale's. John M Baker 00:08, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
- The article needs to explicitly cite its sources, see WP:CITE --Peta 03:57, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
- Can you clarify this? Specifically, what are some assertions in the article for which cites are needed? John M Baker 05:02, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
