one important question is, are the user entering their quite themselves or the site’s admin is going to do it.

If it’s the site admin, then i’d say it’s save to create three custom taxonomies for “publication name”, “related stories ID” and “publication author”.

If you just don’t like how the taxonomy meta box is on the sidebar. you can set the taxonomy “public” value to false when you registering, and use acf’s taxonomy field in stead.

So,
1) it’s be faster to query the quote under “publication name” instead of checking against the meta table
2) because they are taxonomy, you can check the existing ones or add new one on the fly.
