Odd Job - QuoteTrack Header-to-Quote Remainder (06/09/2023) Due to a delay in the preparation of September's STOP Notes, this odd job update is being posted separately. It is a side-task which people can help out with in order to support overall progress on the wiki while the main contributors are focused on other more pressing tasks.

The following odd job concerns manual processing of Template:QuoteTrack in the Quotes sections (a precursor to further operations) and the remaining items which have left to be processed. Further details below.

Processing Notes
Note: Carried forward from STOP Notes (04/08/2023)#QuoteTrack, Header-to-Quote Processing Remainder

As part of a larger operation, quotes in the Quotes sections on articles have gradually been put into the temporary QuoteTrack template. This is to aid future processing and information monitoring tasks.

Earlier this year, the relevant sections, which had previously been tagged and tracked using a generic TrackTag in their headers, had that generic TrackTag switched over to the QuoteTrack template. With this initial tracking structure in place, after logging the state of those sections, the plan was to gradually go through them and move the templates from the header to around the individual quotes in those sections. In each case, QuoteTrack would surround the quote, any Character: or bracket notes associated with it, and any references at the end of them, but not the bullet point.

This transfer has steadily been progressing. The remaining articles to be processed are listed below.

The template has multiple purposes, including tracking which articles have quotes in place, allowing quick identification of how many quotes article(s) have, and acting as an anchor or guide to facilitate further processing operations - in bulk and automatically.

Edit: Once QuoteTrack has been placed around each of the section's individual Quotes, remove the QuoteTrack from the header.
