'''{{tl|Cquote}}''' (for ''''''Centered pull-quote'''''') is a template meant for [[pull-quote]]s, which stand apart from the text of a page. ▼
 
▲'''{{tl|Cquote}}''' (for ''''''Centered pull-quote'''''') is a template meant for [[pull-quote]]s, which stand apart from the text of a page.
 
* It generally should not be used in articles unless there is a good justification for doing so.

==Usage==
# <code><nowiki>{{cquote|quote text}}</nowiki></code>
# <code><nowiki>{{cquote|quote text|quotewidth=40px|quoteheight=40px}}</nowiki></code> or <code><nowiki>{{cquote|quote text|40px|40px}}</nowiki></code>
# <code><nowiki>{{cquote|quote text|quote width in pixels|quote height 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
 
;Only the first parameter is required.
:But since sizes are slotted into the second and third parameter placesplace 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):

==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 quotequotation image;marks, defaultsbut tono 20pxlonger.▼
*; 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==▼
The next two parameters can be used to scale the graphical [[quotation mark]]s up and down to suit larger or smaller quotes.
;<code><nowikipre>{{cquote|quote text}}</nowiki></codepre>▼
* Parameter 2: "quotewidth" - desired width of the quote image; defaults to 20px. (anything larger than 48px is not recommended.)
{{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!-->▼
▲* Parameter 3: "quoteheight" - desired height of the quote image; defaults to 20px.
 
;<code><nowikipre>{{cquote|1=quote text}}</nowiki></codepre> (quote text contains an equal sign)▼
The last two parameters can be used to provide attribution for the quote:
▲* 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>
 
▲==Examples==
▲;<code><nowiki>{{cquote|quote text}}</nowiki></code>
As [[Amy Tan]] once said
▲{{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.}}<!--This is a bad example, as it is illustrating use of the template in article text, not as a pull-quote!-->
▲;<code><nowiki>{{cquote|1=quote text}}</nowiki></code> (quote text contains an equal sign)
{{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|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.

;<code><nowikipre>{{cquote|quote text|30px|30px|Origin of quote|Cited source}}</nowiki></codepre>
For example,
;<code><nowikipre>{{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|30px|[[Pink Floyd]]|''[[The Wall]]''}}</nowiki></codepre>
is rendered as
{{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|30px|[[Pink Floyd]]|''[[The Wall]]''}}
 
Example with ref tags:
 
;<code><nowikipre>{{cquote|You don't get everything you want. A dictatorship would be a lot easier.|200200px|50|George W. Bush<ref>http://www.governing.com/archive/1998/jul/bush.txt</ref>}}</nowiki></codepre>
