==Usage==
'''{{tl|Cquote}}''' (for '''Centered pull quote}}''') is a template meant for [[pull quote]]s, the visually distinctive text that is ''already present'' in the same article.
 
* <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:
Line 12:
 
===Syntax===
# <code><nowiki>{{cquotecentered pull quote|quote text}}</nowiki></code>
# <code><nowiki>{{cquotecentered pull quote|quote text|author=author or speaker}}</nowiki></code>
# <code><nowiki>{{cquotecentered pull quote|quote text|author=author or speaker|source=title of article, speech, book, etc.}}</nowiki></code>
 
===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>{{cquotecentered pull quote|</nowiki>'''<span style="color:red;">1=</span>'''<nowiki>quote text}}</nowiki> (see [[m:Help:Templates#Equals sign in parameter value|"Equals sign in parameter value"]])
; author: Name of the person that wrote or spoke the text being quoted. Can include wiki syntax.
; source: Source of the quote (publication title, speech, etc.). Can include wiki syntax.
Line 26:
 
===Simple example===
<pre>{{cquotecentered pull quote|quote text}}</pre>
{{cquotecentered pull quote|To be, or not to be.}}
 
===Sourced example===
<pre>{{cquote
centered pull quote|Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving.
|author=[[Albert Einstein]]
|source=in a letter to his son<ref>[[Walter Isaacson]], ''Einstein: His Life and Universe'' (2007), p. 367.</ref>
}}</pre>

===Other examples===
<pre>{{cquotecentered pull quote|1=F=ma|author=[[Isaac Newton]]}}</pre>
(the ''1='' is necessary as quote text contains an equal sign)
{{cquote|1=F=ma|author=[[Isaac Newton]]}}
 
<pre>{{cquotecentered pull quote|1=Thus:
:<math>E=mc^2</math>|author=[[Albert Einstein]]}}</pre>
(quote text contains an equal sign and math syntax)
{{cquotecentered pull quote|1=Thus:
:<math>E=mc^2</math>|author=[[Albert Einstein]]}}
