DJ Many trying to use Wikiquote to do an end-run around the fact that his promotional autobiography keeps getting deleted off enwiki. "I have a wikiquote page," he said, "so shouldn't I have a Wikipedia page too?"
Even if it did work that way (which it doesn't), I don't think he should have a Wikquote page. — DragonflySixtyseven (talk) 03:43, 29 May 2016 (UTC)reply

- Delete - all the purported quotes are cited to an unreliable source (in fact none of the quotes are properly sourced). ~ UDScott (talk) 12:29, 29 May 2016 (UTC)reply
- Oppose. DJ Many also has a wiki data page and a page at commons. His quotes are the bomb too
- Delete, while DJ Many may be notable, there is not the least indication these quotes are. They are not reliably sourced and at least in part seem misattributed; I rather doubt DJ Many was the first to remark that "Fake Friends Are Worse Than Real Enemies", for example.

- Delete. There is no indication that these are notable quotes. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 21:59, 29 May 2016 (UTC)reply

Duplicate topic for Last words in Doctor Who media. Anything missing from the former, which was first-created, can be merged in. — BD2412 T 19:14, 6 June 2016 (UTC)reply

- Merge and delete, as suggested in the nom. ~ UDScott (talk) 15:10, 7 June 2016 (UTC)reply
- Delete because this is obviously a duplicate title covering the same scope of source material. ~ Ningauble (talk) 15:13, 15 June 2016 (UTC)reply
- I cannot endorse merging most of this content anywhere, because I stand by my opinion at Wikiquote:Votes for deletion/Category:Fictional last words (which failed to achieve consensus either way) that this is excess material that lacks enough Quotability to be included in the main articles on the quoted works. These are not famous last lines in fiction, like "Rosebud...". ~ Ningauble (talk) 15:13, 15 June 2016 (UTC)reply
- I do agree that much of what is here lacks quotability - and I would agree that these should not be preserved. There are a few that qualify though, and it is these I would merge (if they are not already there). But in the end, I would certainly remove much of what is on this page. ~ UDScott (talk) 15:26, 15 June 2016 (UTC)reply
- I say merge Last words in Doctor Who media with this one. Last words in the Whoniverse covers a wider scope, and the Dr. Who page has been damaged beyond recovery by unlisted users.Finister2 (talk) 19:47, 25 June 2016 (UTC)reply
