=== Nested quotations ===
The {{tag|blockquote}} element has styles that change the font size: on desktop, text is smaller; on mobile, it is larger. This change is relative to the enclosing context, meaning that if you quote from a source that itself uses a block quotation, you'll find that the inner quotation is either really tiny and hard to read, or really large and barely fits on the screen. Additionally, you'll get an extra pair of decorative, oversize quotation marks. To fix both these issues, add the parameter <code>|style=font-size:inherit;quotes:none;</code> on any inner {{tl|quote}} templates.
