Template:Cquote

From QED

Jump to: navigation, search
Insert the text of the quotation here, without quotation marks.

Syntax:

  1. {{cquote|TEXT}}
  2. {{cquote|TEXT|quotewidth=QUOTEWIDTH|quoteheight=QUOTEHEIGHT}} or {{cquote|quote text|QUOTEWIDTH|QUOTEHEIGHT}}
  3. {{cquote|TEXT|QUOTEWIDTH|QHOTEHEIGHT|ORIGIN|SOURCE}}

Only the first parameter is required.

The quotewidth and quoteheight parameters determine the size of the quotation marks and must be specified in the form Npx where N is the number of pixels.

The ORIGIN and SOURCE parameters are for specifying attribution.

Note: If a textual parameter contains an equals sign (=), then use Template:eq instead. Alternatively, if TEXT contains one or more equal signs (=), the form {{cquote|1=TEXT}} can be used. See below for an example.

Parameters

  • Parameter 1 (required): the quotation — use <br/> between two break lines.
  • Parameter 2: "quotewidth" - desired width of the quotation mark. Default: 20px. Maximum: 48px
  • Parameter 3: "quoteheight" - desired height of the quotation mark. Default: 20px.
  • Parameter 4: ORIGIN — normally the author. This can include hyperlinks.
