Compare The Quote With The Source
A quote can sound plausible and still put the wrong words in someone’s mouth. Compare three draft quotes with a fictional workshop transcript before adding them to an event recap.

Check Three Quotes
| Case | Look for | What to verify |
|---|---|---|
| QUOTE-01 | A rewritten statement in quotation marks | Match the transcript verbatim or label the rewrite as a paraphrase. |
| QUOTE-02 | The correct words under the wrong name | Match the quote to the speaker who actually said it. |
| QUOTE-03 | A shortened excerpt that drops a condition | Keep the condition so the quote does not imply an unconditional commitment. |
Read the whole line and nearby context before using a short excerpt. For real material, confirm the transcript and permission to quote before publishing.
Retest With The Same Excerpt
Reuse the same transcript and draft quotes. Compare which errors each run identifies and whether the corrected quotes match their sources.
