...the quote was included because this is an unconventional citation, as it refers to a blog. What makes it admissible in my view is that it is Berman's blog and it is his quote. The ref itself is hard to find, buried as it is in a long list of posts. The quote was included to obviate the need for those interested to plow thru each entry. The quote may be unnecessary, as are most thing, come to think of it. But I figured it does no harm, and the quote itself exhibits considerable charm. I will reinstall the quote. If the masses think I am full of it, revert my reversion and I will live with it. Seligne (talk) 12:34, 25 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
This was my thinking as well, to be honest. I was responding to a query at VRTS ticket # 2017101510006157, and while I capitulated to the request I also gave the caveat that others may oppose the change. If consensus is to keep it, then that's fine, but this was the best was I could find to determine the consensus (via SILENCE if necessary). Primefac (talk) 12:55, 25 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
