Klaus Hempfling (klaushempfling) Dear Goodreads Librarians,

Can you then please correct the mistake in the longer quote? There are double quotation marks in the first quote, it’s about these marks:

» and «
which are placed around "Deine" and "Händen":

»Deine ...
... Händen.«

These were used in the book as quotation marks, and I left them when adding the quote, not realizing that the Goodreads system automatically includes quotation marks.

Thanks in advance!

Hi

Is the second quote the one I corrected for you the other day? If so, please only post in the one place. Very few librarians work with quotes & some times it will take a few days to get a reply. If not, someone else has removed the quote marks.

Your request to delete quotes brings up an interesting dilemma.

We can delete quotes without likes for the author - but you are not the author. I'd like to leave this for another opinion. Could you edit the thread title (only possible in the desktop view) & add something like 'Second Opinion Needed.'

All fine, it can stay the way it is. Thank you for your help and the quote correction, this topic can be closed/deleted.

It looks like no one knows for sure.
