In what way? Good question. As far as I can tell, this just makes it look like we take fans' opinions as fact; specifically which quotes they believe "represent" a character. The wikis which do have quotes show a degree of sophistication because they can agree on a quote for a character without getting tangled in debates miles long. Exhibit A - this page. It shows they can put a handle on it.

I think perhaps only admins should have control of the quote for each character; their status indicates they have comprehensive understanding of the subject matter so it'd be a safe bet to assume they'd be capable of it. That sort of seems like mild circular reasoning. What would the quotes themselves show? Because if someone enters a wiki and sees quotes like what you're suggesting, they're not going to think "Wow, this wiki is so sophisticated because they somehow were able to avoid quarelling and come up with quotes that fit this character!"

Though I do agree that only admins should choose. Your arguments make sense.
