{{Documentation subpage}}
{{For|linking a subject to a collection of quotes on [[Wikiquote]]|Template:Wikiquote}}
== Usage ==
{{tlx|Quote}} adds a [[block quotation]] to an article page.
This is easier to type and more wiki-like than the equivalent [[HTML]] {{tag|blockquote}} tags, and has additional pre-formatted attribution and source parameters. <!-- THIS WORKAROUND FAILED; see talk page and its archives. New workaround provided hereafter. It also contains a workaround for [[Bugzilla:6200]], which means you don't need to type {{tag|p}} tags manually. -->
'''Note:''' Block quotes do not normally contain quotation marks. See [[MOS:QUOTE]].
=== Synopsis ===
;Unnamed (positional) parameters
<code><nowiki>{{quote|phrase|person|source}}</nowiki></code>
This markup will fail if any parameter contains an equals sign (=).
;Numbered (positional) parameters
<code><nowiki>{{quote|1=phrase|2=person|3=source}}</nowiki></code>
;Named parameters
<code><nowiki>{{quote|text=phrase|sign=person|source=source}}</nowiki></code>
=== Example ===
;Wikitext:
<code><nowiki>{{Quote|text=Cry "Havoc" and let slip the dogs of war.|sign=[[William Shakespeare]]|source=''[[Julius Caesar (play)|Julius Caesar]]'', act III, scene I}}</nowiki></code>
;Result:
{{Quote|text=Cry "Havoc" and let slip the dogs of war.|sign=[[William Shakespeare]]|source=''[[Julius Caesar (play)|Julius Caesar]]'', act III, scene I}}
=== Restrictions ===
If you do not provide quoted text, the template generates a parser error message, which will appear in red text in the rendered page.
If any parameter's actual value contains an [[equals sign]] (=), you '''''must''''' use named parameters. (The equals sign gets interpreted as a named parameter otherwise.)
If any parameter's actual value contains characters used for wiki markup syntax (such as [[vertical bar|pipe]], [[brackets]], single quotation marks, etc.), you may need to escape it. See [[Template:!]] and friends.
Be wary of URLs which contain restricted characters. The equals sign is especially common.
