  • This is the template used to make quotationboxes. Use it when you want to insert a long quotation of an other author. If you only have a short quotation do to, please prefer the Quotation template.
  • Please do not edit this template, unless you know what you do and you have a good idea on how templates work.

Usage for authors

You can get this banner by inserting the following template in your article (usually at the beginning):

  • {{Quotationbox |Your message ..... }}
  • {{Quotationbox |1= Your message ..... }} (for use in the visual editor)
  • {{Quotationbox |text= Your message ..... |cite= Citation information }}

Make sure to put the closing "}}" on a new line or the parser may produce bad XHTML for a reason I don't understand.
