      Anyone who is interested can help out with this project - just click on those links and look up the name of any person below who has not been struck to find all of their quotes, copy them to a text document, and format them for Wikiquote. Note that the 1919 Bartlett's information is not independently fully sourced, as the quotes tends to lack page numbers and dates. Furthermore, some of the quotes are misattributed or contain errors, so they should be taken with at least a grain of salt. Quotes should be listed as ==Unsourced== until these things have been confirmed.

      • Add any Bartlett's quotes that are missing from Wikiquote to the Wikiquote entry's ==Sourced== section with the following note:
      Reported in ''Bartlett's Familiar Quotations'', 10th ed. (1919).
      • Once this has been done, move the person's name on this page to the ==Completed== section at the bottom of this page, and unbold and strike through the name.

      Please note that the fact that a name is in the ==Completed== section does not mean that the entry on that person is complete by Wikiquote standards; it only means that whatever quotes the 1919 Bartlett's contained from that person are now contained in Wikiquote.

      Suggestions for non-inclusion

      1. Bishop John Still Work attributed to Still by Bartlett's was later found not to be his.
      2. Bartholomew Schidoni The quote attributed to Schidoni by Bartlett's has since been properly traced to an earlier source.
