Usage: {{cquote|quote text|quote width in pixels|quote height in pixels|Origin of quote|Cited source}}

  • Only the first parameter is required.
  1. {{cquote|quote text}}
  2. {{cquote|quote text|quotewidth=40px|quoteheight=40px}} or {{cquote|quote text|40px|40px}}
  3. {{cquote|quote text|quote width in pixels|quote height in pixels|Origin of quote|Cited source}}

Parameters

  • Parameter 1: text of the quote; use <br /> between paragraphs. [REQUIRED]
Note: if the quote text contains one or more "=" (equal signs), then the template must be called as {{cquote|1=quote text}} (see "Equals sign in parameter value")

The next two parameters can be used to scale the graphical quotation marks up and down to suit larger or smaller quotes.

  • Parameter 2: "quotewidth" - desired width of the quote image; defaults to 20px
  • Parameter 3: "quoteheight" - desired height of the quote image; defaults to 20px.

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.
  • Parameter 5: Source of the quote (publication title, speech, etc.). Can include links.


Examples

{{cquote|quote text}}

As Amy Tan once said:

{{cquote|quote text|40px|40px}}

{{cquote|quote text|30px|30px|Origin of quote|Cited source}}

Limitations

Note that {{Cquote|Some text {{ref|Some ref}} }} doesn't work. You may find that {{Cquote|Some text}}{{ref|Some ref}} gives ugly results. Angus McLellan 18:35, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

{{Cquote|Some text <ref>Some ref</ref> }}, however, does work.  -- Run!  14:55, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
