Template documentationUsage[edit]
This template provides a quotation in a bordered box, on a light grey background, and spanning the page width by default. Do not put quotation marks around the quoted material.
| Markup | Renders as |
|---|---|
{{Quote frame |quote=Quoted material |author=Author |title=Title |source=other details}}
{{Quote frame|Quoted material|Author|Title|other details}}
|
|
{{Quote frame |quote=Quoted material |author=Author |source="Article Title", ''Newspaper Name'', date}}
{{Quote frame|Quoted material|Author||"Article Title", ''Newspaper Name'', date}}
|
In the short syntax, the 3rd parameter (which auto-italicizes) has been included but left empty to skip it, and we use the 4th to manually apply italics where needed. |
{{Quote frame |quote=Quoted material |author=Author |title=Title}}
{{Quote frame|Quoted material|Author|Title}}
|
|
{{Quote frame |quote=Quoted material}}
{{Quote frame|Quoted material}}
|
|
{{Quote frame |quote=Quoted material |source="Article Title", ''Newspaper Name'', date}}
{{Quote frame|Quoted material|||"Article Title", ''Newspaper Name'', date}}
|
In the short syntax, we skip two parameters by giving them empty. |
{{Quote frame|Quoted material |align=center}}
|
|
{{Quote frame|Quoted material |align=right}}
|
|
{{Quote frame|Quoted material |align=right |width=33%}}
|
|
The |width= parameter takes any valid CSS width value, such as 33% or 25em. This should not be specified in fixed pixel sizes (like 100px). As shown in the table above, the width is relative to the size of the container not the entire page, so the displayed width will be smaller if used inside a table.
The equal sign (=)[edit]
If any of the parameters' content include an equal sign (=) in its input, this will make the template not recognize the parameter properly unless:
- The parameters are named or numbered:
{{Quote frame|quote=Einstein's equation, E=mc2, has to reach everywhere. Science is a beautiful gift to humanity, we should not distort it. |author=Abdul Kalam}}
{{Quote frame|1=Einstein's equation, E=mc2, has to reach everywhere. Science is a beautiful gift to humanity, we should not distort it. |2=Abdul Kalam}}
- The
=in the content is escaped with the{{}}template:
{{Quote frame|Einstein's equation, E{{=}}mc2, has to reach everywhere. Science is a beautiful gift to humanity, we should not distort it.|Abdul Kalam}}
- The
=in the content is escaped with the=character reference:
{{Quote frame|Einstein's equation, E=mc2, has to reach everywhere. Science is a beautiful gift to humanity, we should not distort it.|Abdul Kalam}}
