Template:Quotation2

Purpose

A second template to help visually distinguish quoted material. See Template:Quotation to draw a blue border around your quoted text.

Usage

To use, copy and paste the below:

{{Quotation2
|quote = 
|source = 
|ref = 
}}

Key

1. quote = Insert quoted material here.
2. source = Optional parameter for the source of the quote.
3. ref = Optional parameter to add a footnoted reference for the quote. Source is required for use.

Shortcut

The parameter names do not need to be included, and quoted material can instead be inserted directly after the pipe (|). For example:

{{Quotation2|Quoted text here.}}

However, note the below restrictions.

Fan fiction is a way of the culture repairing the damage done in a system where contemporary myths are owned by corporations instead of owned by the folk.

Known Issues

• If the opening and closing braces do not appear on their own lines, paragraph breaks may not work correctly inside the quote.
• If the quoted text contains an equals sign (e.g., in a hyperlink), the parameter name (source =) or the parameter number (1 =) needs to be included before quoted text.
