* <font color="red">'''NOTE''': This template should '''not be used''' for quotations</font> if they are not repeated elsewhere in the main text. The [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style#Quotations|Manual of Style]] recommendation is:
** For visually distinctive quotation, use {{tl|Quotation}} template.
** For long quotations, use the HTML <[[blockquote]]> element, such as through the use of the {{tl|Quote}} or {{tl|quote box}} template.
* Pull quotes work best when used with short sentences, and at the start or end of a section, as a hint of the section's content.
* 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 (publishing)|sidebar]]. This can be effective on [[WP:ESSAY|essay]] pages and [[WP:WIKIPROJECT|WikiProject]] homepages.
