-== Usage ==
-<code><nowiki>{{Quote}}</nowiki></code> adds a [[block quotation]] to an article page.
-This is easier to type and more wiki-like than the equivalent [[HTML]] {{tag|blockquote}} tags, and has additional pre-formatted attribution and source parameters. <!-- THIS WORKAROUND FAILED; see talk page and its archives. New workaround provided hereafter. It also contains a workaround for [[Bugzilla:6200]], which means you don't need to type {{tag|p}} tags manually. -->
-'''Note:''' Block quotes do not normally contain quotation marks.
-=== Synopsis ===
-;Unnamed (positional) parameters
-<code><nowiki>{{quote|phrase|person|source}}</nowiki></code>
-This markup will fail if any parameter contains an equals sign (=).
-;Numbered (positional) parameters
-<code><nowiki>{{quote|1=phrase|2=person|3=source}}</nowiki></code>
-;Named parameters
-<code><nowiki>{{quote|text=phrase|sign=person|source=source}}</nowiki></code>
-=== Example ===
-;Wikitext:
-<code><nowiki>{{Quote|text=Cry "Havoc" and let slip the dogs of war.|sign=[[William Shakespeare]]|source=''[[Julius Caesar (play)|Julius Caesar]]'', act III, scene I}}</nowiki></code>
-;Result:
-{{Quote|text=Cry "Havoc" and let slip the dogs of war.|sign=[[William Shakespeare]]|source=''[[Julius Caesar (play)|Julius Caesar]]'', act III, scene I}}
-=== Restrictions ===
-If you do not provide quoted text, the template generates a parser error message, which will appear in red text in the rendered page.
-If any parameter's actual value contains an [[equals sign]] (=), you '''''must''''' use named parameters. (The equals sign gets interpreted as a named parameter otherwise.)
-If any parameter's actual value contains characters used for wiki markup syntax (such as [[vertical bar|pipe]], [[brackets]], single quotation marks, etc.), you may need to escape it. See [[Template:!]] and friends.
-Be wary of URLs which contain restricted characters. The equals sign is especially common.
