Lists of ""quotations"" abound on the web,...  They are still quotations, even if they aren't completely accurate.  I understand what you mean though.  You are using them to show that they aren't true quotations.  However, scare quotes should only be used when really necessary (see bottom).  A possible way to rewrite it is 'Lists of quotations abound on the web, however most of them are poorly sourced or even plain inaccurate.'  I'm sorry if you're puzzled, but they don't belong there.  You can respond here if you need.  Cheers, Talk 

First of all, you neglected to put quotation marks around the quotation from me in your reply. Secondly, I dispute that they actually ARE quotations, given that many of them are wholly fabricated. I know very well what our article on scare quotes says... and ""should"" is not a word that really applies to User pages here on Wikipedia if we're talking about prescriptive grammar. I don't need advice from you on alternate wordings, as it was worded precisely the way that I intended and it shall stay that way. The puzzling thing is why on Earth you thought it necessary to ""correct"" my non-error in the first place. Rather than risk that you'll not pick up on my subtle message, I'll make it explicit: stay off my User page. You can reply here if you need. Have a nice day!  | Talk "
