	Voynich MS - Long Tour - Description of the MS
		A standard quire (or gathering) consists of four bifolia which are stacked and folded in the middle to form 8 folios.
		Quire markings 16 and 18 are missing, and since there are also missing pages between quires 15 and 17 and between 17 and 19, the reasonable assumption is that these quires consisted of one bifolio each (foldout or not), which have been lost.
		Quire 20 has the quire number on the first recto page, for which no clear explanation can be found so far (except that it was perhaps done deliberately to indicate that it is the last quire).

	Codicology - The Aberdeen Bestiary Project - University of Aberdeen
		The asterisk sign is repeated in quires B and M but they remain distinct because the B sign is in the top right corner while the M signs are all in the bottom left corner.
		In quires B and C there is a double hole on the penultimate line, indicating to the person ruling lines that the page is about to end.
		On f48r (quire G) where there are double pricks for the margins, the wrong holes have been joined and the faulty diagonal line has been redrawn correctly.

	Hague MS Description
		Quire 3 is not a regular quaternion: instead of being made up of four double leaves, it consists of three bifolia (sheets folded to form two leaves) and two singletons forming a 'composite bifolium' (fols 18 and 21; Figure 1c).
		In quire 2 additional horizontal pricks are found at the outer edge of the upper margin, together with the vertical incisions (fols 9–15).
		In the upper and lower margins of the rectos of quire 1 and quires 3 to 8 five small incisions can be seen near both edges: two appear close to each other at the left, two close together near the centre, and one to the right (see Figure 2, for a more exact description).

	VMS - Voynich Manuscript Binding Issues
		The assumption is that a quire consisted of 8 bi-folios or 16 pages and the quire number should therefore be located in the bottom right of the 16th page - which should be on a 'verso' side.
		Since the Quire number is on f40v - Language B is assumed to be the language for the entire quire.
		Since the Quire number is on f48v - Language B is assumed to be the language for the entire quire.

	Barbelith Underground > Comic Books > The Politics of Quentin Quire
		I think Laurence has a decent point too, that maybe just because Grant Morrison has a tendency for characters to be mouthpieces doesn't mean that Quire isn't a character in his own right, which was actually my argument in favor of Quire when people were first voicing their disappointment with his portrayal.
		On the similarity of quire to queer, this could be another way of illustrating the generational clash between the X-men and the students.
		Quire's actions are based on adolescent petulance and identity crisis - not serious politics, or any kind of 'evil'.
