Quotations section

The quotations section is not really appropriate for an article like this. It is far more suited for Wikiquote. Notable quotes that can be backed by critical commentary are fine. Tens of (irrelevant) quotes aren't fine. --MZMcBride (talk) 04:00, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Can you kindly direct me to the relevant guideline? Ta. ~ smb 09:40, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

While it's not a guideline, WP:QUOTE describes this situation exactly.

“

the article is beginning to look like Wikiquote. Editors should remember that Wikipedia is, at its core, an encyclopedia, and not an opportunity to list the best and worst quotations pertaining to an article's subject. If there are many quotations, please move them to Wikiquote and place a Wikiquote template on the article to inform readers that there are relevant quotations regarding the subject.

”

I suppose the better question is, what do these quotes provide to the article as whole? What is the virtue of them? And, are they even from the book? --MZMcBride (talk) 23:19, 4 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I removed the quotes. The quotes, while unmistakably Chomsky-ese, are totally unreferenced and there is no indication they come from the film. Extensive quotation sections are deprecated per WP:QUOTE. Interested parties are welcome to move these to Wikiquote. Skinwalker (talk) 22:40, 30 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Manufacturing Agreement.

While a list of unrelated quotes might not be that helpful, is total deletion the answer? For why not re-enforce/add some supporting context to the quotes?

Article needs expansion

The intro is decent however, covers it adequately.--JTBX (talk) 05:41, 9 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
