Evans quote

"The Grandmaster Larry Evans offered this advice on buying a set (Evans 1973:18):"

Isn't the quote by Evans a violation of WP:NOTMANUAL? Toccata quarta (talk) 17:18, 16 November 2013 (UTC)

I'm the one that put that in. It does seem as you say. The relative part of NOTMANUAL is "Describing to the reader how other people or things use or do something is encyclopedic; instructing the reader in the imperative mood about how to use or do something is not." It is instructing the reader what to do. However, it is a quotation and not in the text of the article. Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 17:37, 16 November 2013 (UTC)
