Template:Cquote
From QED
| “ | Insert the text of the quotation here, without quotation marks. | ” |
Syntax:
- {{cquote|TEXT}}
- {{cquote|TEXT|quotewidth=QUOTEWIDTH|quoteheight=QUOTEHEIGHT}} or {{cquote|quote text|QUOTEWIDTH|QUOTEHEIGHT}}
- {{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.
