Add context to quotes

Add game, show, and a context columns to the quotes table. Game and show would be set automatically for new quotes. Find volunteers to do it for the old quotes. Context column would be a freeform text field that if exists would be added after the name when displaying quotes. For example currently the attribution for quote 5 is 'Alex, frequent last words'. This would split it up to 'Alex' as the name and 'frequent last words' as the context.

I am in support of this, though I do think that SOME quotes are better WITHOUT context. :-)

For past quotes i wonder if it's wroth starting a gdoc for people to list quotes id's and context for some sort of batch import?

I fear that somebody will try to be funny and change the layout or something and the import script will fail in strange and interesting ways. I think that a web interface to change the quotes might be useful even after context has been added to all quotes.
