{{remove}} edit Talk Links	Quotes should never be removed without a comment in the edit summary, and should almost always be moved to the Talk page with a note that they were removed from the article, giving full reasoning. If it is a misattribution, the quote should not be removed, instead being moved to a "Misattributed" section, where explanation of the misattribution can be made in a subbullet. Thanks.

{{subst:Vanity-warn}} edit Talk Links	An article that you've created and/or edited, [[{{{1}}}]], has been [[WQ:VFD#{{{1}}}|nominated for deletion]] at Wikiquote:Votes for deletion (VfD). Based on reviews of similar quote articles, it is suspected that these are not quotes of notable figures with published references, which is what Wikiquote collects, but rather quotes from yourself or your friends or acquaintances. These are what we refer to as "vanity" quotes, much like Wikipedia's "vanity" articles. As is pointed out in Wikiquote:FAQ and What Wikiquote is not, which are recommended reading, such quotes are perfectly acceptable on one's user page, but are not a proper subject for quotation in Wikiquote articles. If so, I invite you to copy the quotes to your user page before the article is deleted. If instead this person or subject has some notoriety in the world at large, and has been quoted in the mainstream media, please provide evidence of this in the VfD entry mentioned above. Thank you for your cooperation.	User talk anywhere

You are encouraged to create a new account and contribute to Wikipedia under a more appropriate username, and in a constructive manner. See our username policy for guidance on selecting an appropriate username. Alternatively, you may edit Wikiquote without creating an account. You are not allowed to edit Wikiquote under an inappropriate username. Due to Wikiquote's mechanism for enforcing name-changes, your IP address may be temporarily blocked. Unless you have also been engaging in vandalism, we will remove that block as soon as possible - if this doesn't happen within an hour or so, please email an administrator and explain the situation to them - see list of administrators. If you wish to keep your edits from this username in a new account, please see Wikiquote:Changing username to change your username.	User page top

Tips & requests

What to type	What it makes	Where it goes
{{subst:sign}} edit Talk Links	Hello. In case you didn't know, when you post messages on talkpages and Wikiquote pages, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ("~~~~") at the end of your message. You may also click on the signature button which is above the edit window. This will put a signature containing your user name or IP address and the time you posted the message. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you.	User talk anywhere
{{subst:sign2}} edit Talk Links	Hi. I wanted to ask you to sign comments in talk pages. The easiest way to sign is to add ~~~~ at the end -- it is automatically transformed to your username and a timestamp. This makes it much easier to track discussions, and is the common practice here. Thanks.	User talk anywhere
{{subst:summary}} edit Talk Links	Thank you for your contributions to Wikiquote. Might I ask that you please use the "Edit summary" feature whenever you edit to provide a terse summary of the changes you make during each edit? This helps folks review article changes from a broad perspective without having to do server-intensive, step-by-step examination of individual edits. If you'd like more information on this, please see Wikipedia:Edit summary or drop me a note on my talk page. Thank you for your assistance.	User talk anywhere; cf. {{remove}}

There are templates for user pages too.
