Goal
This template adds a block quotation with border to an article page.
This is easier to type and more wiki-like than the equivalent HTML blockquote tags, and has additional pre-formatted attribution and source parameters.
Usage
Using unnamed parameters
{{quotation|text|author|title|source}}
Using numbered parameters
{{quotation|1=|2=|3=|4=}}
Parameters
All parameters are optional, except text or 1.
- 1, text
- Text to be quoted.
- 2, author
- Name or nickname of author.
- 3, title
- Title
- 4, source
- The source to the quoted text. Preferably using {{cite web}} or an URL.
Known issues
When using the template with unnamed parameters, an equal sign (=) will break the template. The workaround is to either use <nowiki>=</nowiki> or the {{=}} template.
