Talk:hapless
Removed one of two Mary W. Shelley quotations.[edit]
First of all, as far as I'm aware, recreating a previously-deleted Talk page to make the following comment is appropriate enough. I am doing this in good faith, but may be ignorant of the finer points of Wikipolicy. I am recreating this Talk page so I can explain an edit I just made:
I don't have a problem with long lists. I think four quotations is plenty, but I don't especially mind if there's more. However, when I saw that two of the five quotations were from the same author, I felt one should be removed. That just seems obvious. I removed the first one on the list, because the second one had the more complex formatting to it, and since I didn't understand it, I wasn't willing to remove it. The part that sucks, though, is that the quote I removed was the one not from Frankenstein. It would be more cool to have a quote from some other Shelley book and not the big famous one.
So, that's that. I just wanted to explain myself, because I really don't like removing anybody's work. If somebody restores the quote I'm not going to "edit war" over it, but I do think it's better this way.
