Template:Blockquote/doc
This is a documentation subpage for Template:Terminate sentence It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
{{Quote}} adds a block quote to an article page.
This is easier to type and more wiki-like than the equivalent HTML <blockquote>
tags, has additional pre-formatted attribution and source parameters, and contains a workaround for Bugzilla:6200, which means you don't need to type <p>
tags manually.
Note: Block quotes do not normally contain quotation marks. See Formatting block quotations.
Note: This template does work correctly if the phrase contains characters found in some URLs.
