Example text
Template ((talk quotation))
(a.k.a. ((tq))
) serves two common purposes:
((xt))
(a template used frequently in the Manual of Style), useful when inline typeface changes are needed.By default, the template changes the given text to italicized serif typeface and green color
. The accompanying change in typeface to a serif (roman) or mono-spaced type style, (example text
) is to make it fully accessible for those with color blindness.
For block quotations on talk pages that break onto their own line, or contain paragraph breaks, editors can use ((talkquote))
instead.
|1=
The text to highlight with the template. As with all templates, when the text, given as the template parameter, contains an equals character (=
), prefixing the text with |1=
is required to ensure the character is correctly interpreted as being part of the normal text; otherwise it will break the template.
|italic=yes
or |i=yes
will force the content to be green and italicised only
(no change to serif font style); any value may be used, e.g. |i=y
. This is typically used inside a block of text that is already serif-styled to make the highlighted text stand out better.
|roman=yes
or |serif=yes
will force the content to green and roman (serif) font only
(no italicisation); any value may be used.
|title=
takes text, which cannot be marked up in any way, and displays it as a pop-up "tooltip" (in most browsers) when the cursor hovers over the span. This most common use of this is to provide attribution.
...when you said, ((tq|Lorem ipsum '''dolor''' sit)) and, ((tq|consectetur adipiscing elit|i=yes|title=This is a tooltip)).
