What exactly should be the scope of Lists of Quotes articles? What are they here for? A lot of them can get quite lengthy, especially when generic voice lines are transcribed to them, and offer very little extra insight into a character's personality. Not to mention all of those quotes are inherently out of context, making many of them sound confusing and unhelpful if you're looking for a specific interaction. Half of them seem to always have an Expand, Stub or Construction template attached to them (until I removed quite a few) because, by the nature of being quotes, will forever be "incomplete" until every piece of dialogue from a game is transcribed to it, which would only worsen the problem. I think it would be very helpful to delineate a more concrete way of determining what quotes are fit for a List of Quotes article, how many and when a game is sufficiently covered.

Personally I don't think any Expand, Stub or Construction templates are necessary to those pages unless they're severely lacking in content (Like List of Mario Party: Star Rush quotes) but, like Galleries, sometimes articles are just expanded as users get content. I don't think we need to place messages telling what needs to be there. — Lady Sophie ^(T|C) 17:34, March 5, 2025 (EST)
