Template:Rquote/doc

{{Rquote}} is a variant of the {{Cquote}} quotation template, intended for very short pull quotes of 50 words or less. It results in a floating quote with the article text wrapping around it, like an image.

For longer pull quotes of 50 words or more (in a similar style), use Cquote. For long quotations in the text, the Wiki Manual of Style recommends using the HTML <blockquote> element.

Usage

Align quote box to the right:

{{Rquote|right|Quote text|Origin of quote|Cited source}}

Align quote box to the left:

{{Rquote|left|Quote text|Origin of quote|Cited source}}

Without the first parameter the box defaults to the right. "Center" is not a valid option for this template.

You should not put quotation marks around the quote. This template serves as a block quote to separate it from the text instead.

Parameters

1. Alignment (left, right).
2. The Quote Text
3. Source (who said it?)
4. Citation (where was it said?)

Example

Align Right →
