<!-- EDIT TEMPLATE DOCUMENTATION BELOW THIS LINE -->

{{warning|'''NOTE''': This template should '''not be used''' for block quotations in article text.}}

 

This template is meant for [[pull quote]]s, the visually distinctive {{em|repetition}} of text that is {{em|already present}} on the same page. In most cases, this is not appropriate for use in encyclopedia articles. The [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style#Block quotations|Manual of Style guidelines for block quotations]] recommend formatting block quotations using the {{tlx|Quote}} template or the HTML &lt;[[blockquote]]&gt; element, for which that template provides a wrapper.

 

* Pull quotes work best when used with short sentences, and at the start or end of a section, as a hint of or to help emphasize the section's content.

 

For a visually distinctive block quotation, use the {{tlx|Quotation}} templates. Generally, do not mix-and-match styles in an article.
