Thank you, both, Lori, and Christopher! Looks like there is an update that
confirms what you said and I thought:
https://wiki.benetech.org/display/BSO/4.8+C.+Footnotes%2C+Superscripts+and+Subscripts%2C+and+Sidebars
<https://wiki.benetech.org/display/BSO/4.8+C.+Footnotes,+Superscripts+and+Subscripts,+and+Sidebars>
Quoting: "If the content of a sidebar is exactly identical to a passage in the
text in the body of the page, that
sidebar can be deleted entirely."
Thanks!

Hi, Valerie,
I recall sometime ago that volunteers were told that if a sidebar contained
the same words that were also used in the text of the book that we could
delete the sidebar.
I no longer have the email that gives that information but am sure I am
correct.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Sidebar quotes
I am scanning a book, “Life Lifters” by Zig Ziglar and it has sidebar quotes
directly from the material on the pages and I am wondering if it is okay to
delete them since they are not true sidebars of distinct information. I was
thinking that was one of the cases where deleting text was allowed,
especially since it would take away from the reading flow, but I want to know
before I prep it for proofreading.
Thanks so much!
