Talk:Kobe Bryant

removed references to other quote archive
Sites that are compendiums of quotes (much like Wikiquote) are not primary sources, and should not be used as references in Wikiquote (it would be rather circular to reference a quote on one quote compendium with a another compendium). This is discussed in Sourcing if you'd like to read more about it.

The quotes that were listed were all false quotes that were simply mocking Kobe Bryant by saying things like "I am the greatest ever, I hate Michael Jordan", etc. None were sourced and all were fake. I was trying to delete the things that someone obviously put there as a joke. I'm sorry, I didn't know the rules.—This unsigned comment is by Brandonrye (talk • contribs). gn d
