Banjomike | 5166 comments The quote you listed in your first post, "Time is God’s patience which can heal" is gone.

"Don’t marry a man who doesn’t love his mother and a woman" are both deleted.

Edit: I removed both before you added a link to one of them. Sorry.

have you deleted all my quotes, i can't find any one of them. plz let me know i can't understand.

thanks in advance"


I only deleted the ones that we've discussed in this thread. The others might have been removed because you are not an author.

The guidelines for adding a quote to Goodreads are given on this page:

Banjomike | 5166 comments The word that Goodreads uses is "Notable". The definition we use is this one from Wikipedia:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikiped...

And this, "Only enter quotes from notable people. Generally, a person is notable if they have been the subject of published secondary source material which is reliable, intellectually independent, and independent of the subject"

Goodreads is not a site for everyone to enter their own personal sayings unless the person is "notable". Authors are by definition notable. Some celebs, TV & radio personalities might be notable. Many people who are only famous for being on the Internet or on Youtube (for example) are NOT notable. It is a confusing subject.

Has it been published? You indicated earlier in this thread that it had not been.

As I said, I have only removed the quotes you wanted removing. As far as your list of books is concerned it might help if you could add the ISBN or ASIN numbers of some the books, especially the ones that are described as having been published some years ago. I haven't been able to find any of them on the Internet. The only ISBN I can see is on this book and it is not valid:

Banjomike | 5166 comments I was leaving them for the person who had been deleting all your quotes.

Done. Just a reminder, you still need to add a valid ISBN or ASIN to at least one of your books as I said in message #11 above. It will help us to confirm your author status otherwise all your quotes are likely to get removed.

Banjomike | 5166 comments OK, the OP account has been removed so what do we do with the presumably fake books and the 90 quotes?
