Template | Use / description |
↓ Block quotations | General purpose |
((Blockquote)) | Our standard block quotation template: unbordered page-wide quotation with optional smaller-sized attribution |
((Break lines)) | Transforms line breaks into <br /> tags. It is very similar to the ((poem)) template, except that it does not invoke the <poem> MediaWiki extension. |
((Numbered verses)) | Quote poems showing the verse numbers |
((Poem)) | ((Blockquote)) variant for use with poems, song lyrics, and other things that would otherwise require the use of <poem> tags or frequent formatting elements (such as <br /> ); requires substitution |
((Poem quote)) | ((Blockquote)) variant for use with poems, song lyrics, and other things that would otherwise require the use of <poem> tags or frequent formatting elements (such as <br /> ); does not require substitution |
((Poetically break lines)) (shortcut: ((pbl))) | Designed to format poetry simply and reliably; it differs from ((Poem quote)) in two significant ways: it does not add spacing around the poem that sets it apart as “block quote”, and it automatically provides hanging indentation when lines are so long that they wrap |
((Text and translation)) | Displays original language and translated text, one beside the other |
((Verse translation)) | Displays original language verse (defaults to italics) and translated verse (roman) side-by-side |
((Verse transliteration-translation)) | Like ((Verse translation)), but with a transliteration separate from the original version |
((Gbq)) | ((Blockquote)) variant for use inside glossaries |
((Cquote)) | "centered quote" – Page-wide quote, between large quotation marks |
((Rquote)) | "reduced quote" – Quote between large quotation marks in a reduced floating area |
((Quote frame)) | Page-wide bordered quote |
((Quote box)) | Quote floated in a reduced bordered box |
((Tweet)) | For quoting directly from tweets. Automatically generates ((Cite tweet)) citation, or a custom reference can be provided. |
| |
↓ Talk page quoting | Not for use in articles nor the project space at all |
((Talk quote inline))(shortcut: ((tq)),((tqq)), ((tqi)), or ((tqqi))) | Inline quotation for use on talk pages |
((Not talk quote inline))(shortcut: ((!tq)),((!tqq)), ((!tqi)), or ((!tqqi))) | Inline quotation for what someone didn't say but could have, or perhaps should have, said. |
((Talk quote block))(shortcut: ((tqb)), ((tq2))) | Block-style quotation for use on talk pages |
((Talk quote block minimalist))(shortcut: ((tqbm))) | Minimalist version of above |
| |
↓ Alternative | For indenting non-quotations |
((Block indent)) | To indent an entire block of content (uses <div> and CSS margins) |
