Template:Rquote/doc


 * This template should not be used for block quotations in article text. For long quotations in the text, the Manual of Style recommends using the HTML &lt;blockquote> element or the Quote template (which produces the blockquote tag).
 * This template should not be used for quotations if they are not repeated elsewhere in the main text. The Manual of Style recommendation is:
 * For a visually distinctive block quotation, use the or Quote box templates. Generally, do not mix-and-match styles in an article.

''' is a variant of the quotation template, intended for relatively short pull quotes of 50 or 100 words. It results in a floating quote with the article text wrapping around it, like an image.'''

Pull quotes work best when:
 * used with short sentences, and at the start or end of a section, as a hint of the section's content;
 * used with short quotes, and at the start or end of a section, to help emphasize the content of the section. For longer pull quotes, especially those more than a paragraph, or longer than the rest of the paragraph they are quoted in, a similar effect (across the page) can be produced by.

Usage
Align quote box to the right:

Align quote box to the left:

It is always safest to explicitly number the second parameter (the quoted text), since the presence of any  character in it will break the template if this parameter is not named.

Parameters

 * 1) Alignment (left, right).
 * 2) Text of quotation – remember to use an explicit undefined if material contains a   character
 * 3) Person (or other entity) being quoted – a standard  citation can go in this parameter, if a work is not being cited in the 4th parameter
 * 4) Citation (book, article, speech, etc.) – standard  citations normally go in this parameter.

Formatting
Quotation marks are supplied by the template and should not be included in the quote text. Soft hyphens can be used to influence line breaks within the quote text.
