STILL waiting for the definition of "verbatim" that says every single word someone said or wrote must be repeated.
Did you find it yet?
How about that rule of an ellipsis at the beginning of a quote?
Maybe proof that the quote in my signature replaced words from your post, or changed the order of them?
Maybe proof that a verbatim quote cannot be a portion of a paragraph or a portion of a sentence?
Proof that Merriam Webster, Oxford English, Cambridge dictionaries are wrong, but you are right?
Anything other than your usual "because I said so" arguments?
