<!-- EDIT TEMPLATE DOCUMENTATION BELOW THIS LINE -->
'''{{tl|Cquote}}''' (for '''Centered pull-quote''') is a template meant for [[pull-quote]]s, which stand apart from the text of a page.
 
{{Blockquote/doc/boilerplate}}
* It generally should not be used in articles unless there is a good justification for doing so.
* Pull-quotes work best when used with short quotes, and at the start or end of a section, to help emphasize the content of the section.
* For shorter pull-quotes of 50 words or fewer in a similar style, consider using {{tl|Rquote}} which sets the quote off to either the right or left as in a magazine [[sidebar]].
 
== Usage ==
'''NOTE''': This template should '''not be used''' for [[block quote]]s in article text. For long quotations in the text, the [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style#Quotations|Manual of Style]] recommends using the HTML &lt;[[blockquote]]&gt; element, such as through the use of the {{tl|Quote}} template.
For quotes, this template provides a centered, borderless quote, with scalable decorative quotation marks, and optional attribution of the source of the quote. It can be used with or without the names of the parameters.
 
==Usage=Syntax===
* {{tlx|{{BASEPAGENAME}}|2=quote={{var|text of the quotation}}|3=author={{var|person quoted}}|4=source={{var|source of the quotation}}}}
# <code><nowiki>{{cquote|quote text}}</nowiki></code>
# <code><nowiki>{{cquote|quote text|quotewidth=40px}}</nowiki></code> or <code><nowiki>{{cquote|quote text|40px|}}</nowiki></code>
# <code><nowiki>{{cquote|quote text|quote width in pixels||Origin of quote|Cited source}}</nowiki></code>{{i}}which is to say:
{{ibull}}title of article or book is same as Origin of quote{{ibull}}author is same as Cited source
 
===Parameters===
;Only the first parameter is required.
; Parameter <code>1</code>, <code>quote</code>: text of the quote; use {{tag|p}} around second or subsequent paragraphs.
:But since sizes are slotted into the second parameter place by default, to cite a source one must deliberately define dummy parameters for those (abusing the template logic which expects numbers), or explicitly define the source publication and author as 4= and 5= respectively (using them as named parameters&mdash;the preprocessor takes such fine):
: '''''Required'''''
: {{A note}} if the quote text contains a <code>=</code> (equals sign), then the template must be called with a named parameter for the content. For example: {{tlx|Cquote|{{stronggood|quote{{=}}}}{{var|quote text{{=}}more quoted text}}}} {{Crossreference|1=(see {{section link|Help:Template#Usage hints and workarounds}})}}.
; <code>author</code>: Name of the person that wrote or spoke the text being quoted. Can include wiki syntax.
; <code>source</code>: Source of the quote (publication title, speech, etc.). Can include wiki syntax. Can be used without {{para|author}} (e.g. for a scripture, law, or other source without an author ''per se'')
; <code>bgcolor</code>: The color of the background. This parameter is disabled in article space.
; <code>float</code>: Defaults to center, but can also be right or left. Usually used with {{para|width|30%}} or so (otherwise for quotes longer than one line on the rendered page, the float will have no useful effect). This parameter is disabled in article space.
; <code>width</code>: for example {{para|width|30%}}. This parameter is disabled in article space.
; <code>qcolor</code>: color of quotemarks, for example {{para|qcolor|#FF0000}} for a red color (only for use in [[WP:Signpost]], and personal pages; do not use in articles, guidelines, etc.). This parameter is disabled in article space.
; <code>rtl</code>: set to any non-blank value for quotes that should be rendered from right to left (e.g., Arabic). Adds the necessary dir attribute and reverses the quotes. This parameter is disabled in article space.
; <code>quotealign</code>: set to center to center align the quote text. This parameter is disabled in article space.
'''Deprecated''':
; <code style="color: DarkRed;">wide</code>: In older versions of the template, when this was set to "yes", the quote expanded to the entire width of the page, which was useful for long quotes. However, it clashed with other floating objects, such as infoboxes, and the template now auto expands and line wraps as needed (full page, or within a {{para|width}} constraint). This parameter is disabled in article space.

</pre>
==Parameters==
; Parameter 1: text of the quote; use <code><nowiki><br /></nowiki></code> between paragraphs.
: '''''Required'''''
: '''Note''': if the quote text contains one or more "=" (equal signs), then the template must be called as <nowiki>{{cquote|</nowiki>'''<span style="color:red;">1=</span>'''<nowiki>quote text}}</nowiki> (see [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Templates#Equals_sign_in_parameter_value "Equals sign in parameter value"])
;Parameter 2: "size", "quotewidth", or "width" can also be used. - desired size of the quotation marks; defaults to 20px (anything larger than 48px is not recommended). This can be used to scale the graphical [[quotation mark]]s up and down to suit larger or smaller quotes.
;<del>Parameter 3</del>:<del>"quoteheight"</del> - it was used for desired height of the quotation marks, but no longer.
; Parameter 4: Name of the person that wrote or spoke the text being quoted. Can include links.
: '''Note''': if the text contains one or more "=" (equal signs), then the template must be called as <nowiki>{{cquote|</nowiki>'''<span style="color:red;">4=</span>'''<nowiki>text}}</nowiki>
; Parameter 5: Source of the quote (publication title, speech, etc.). Can include links.
: '''Note''': if the text contains one or more "=" (equal signs), then the template must be called as <nowiki>{{cquote|</nowiki>'''<span style="color:red;">5=</span>'''<nowiki>text}}</nowiki>
;bgcolor :The color of the background.

==Examples==
<pre>{{cquote|quote text}}</pre>
{{cquote|External success has to do with people who may see me as a model, or an example, or a representative. As much as I may dislike or want to reject that responsibility, this is something that comes with public success. It's important to give others a sense of hope that it is possible and you can come from really different places in the world and find your own place in the world that's unique for yourself.|4=[[Amy Tan]]}}<!--This is a bad example, as it is illustrating use of the template in article text, not as a pull-quote!-->
 
===Other examples===
<pre>{{cquote|1=quote text}}</pre> (quote text contains an equal sign)
<pre>{{Cquote|1=F=ma|author=[[Isaac Newton]]}}</pre>
{{cquote|1=The essential point, established by Lorentz, is that the equations of the electromagnetic field are not altered by a certain transformation (which I will call by the name of Lorentz) of the form<sup id="refQLT1904"><small>[[#endnoteQLT1904|2]]</small></sup>:

{{Cquote|1=F=ma|author=[[Isaac Newton]]}}
 
<pre>{{cquote|quote text|40px}}</pre>
{{Cquote|You have the right to remain silent. If you give up that right, anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law.

During any questioning, you may decide at any time to exercise these rights, not answer any questions, or make any statements.|40px}}
 
<pre>{{Cquote|1=Thus:
<pre>{{cquote|quote text|30px||Origin of quote|Cited source}}</pre>
{{in5}}<math>E=mc^2</math>|author=[[Albert Einstein]]}}</pre>
For example,
(quote text contains an equals sign and math syntax)
<pre>{{cquote|And when they've given you their all / Some stagger and fall, after all it's not easy / Banging your heart against some mad bugger's wall.|30px||[[Pink Floyd]]|''[[The Wall]]''}}</pre>
{{Cquote|1=Thus:
is rendered as
{{in5}}<math>E=mc^2</math>|author=[[Albert Einstein]]}}
{{cquote|And when they've given you their all / Some stagger and fall, after all it's not easy / Banging your heart against some mad bugger's wall.|30px||[[Pink Floyd]]|''[[The Wall]]''}}
 
Example with ref tags:
 
<pre>{{Cquote|Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.|source=First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States |float=right |width=30%}}</pre>
<pre>{{cquote|You don't get everything you want. A dictatorship would be a lot easier.|200px||George W. Bush<ref>http://www.governing.com/archive/1998/jul/bush.txt</ref>}}</pre>
(source with no author; floated right and width-constrained)

Note that it will wrap around article text like this.{{Lorem ipsum}}{{clear|both}}
