Template:Request quotation span/doc

Usage
Do not substitute this template.

The Request quotation span template may be used when there is a piece of text that should be verified with quotation from a source. Unlike the template Request quotation, this template attaches explicitly to a portion of text, for example one or more specific sentences, by surrounding the text with the template. This is especially useful for flagging a block of multiple facts or multiple sentences as needing quotation, and for singling out a specific fact that needs quotation among many verified ones.

Avoid use for multiple paragraphs or around a list without closing and opening each template around each paragraph or list item. This kind of use causes linting errors and may disrupt the page display. An alternative with multiple paragraphs is using multiple Request quotation.

Once a quotation is added, please remove this template from the surrounded text.


 * , or:

The date is optional, so the minimal syntax is:

Example of usage:




 * Verified material. More verified material.

Compare usage of Request quotation:




 * Verified material. Passage to be verified with quotation. Another passage to be verified with quotation. More verified material.

Parameters

 * text (or no parameter): The text that needs a quotation.
 * date: The date in the form . If omitted,  will add it if there are no new edits for a few minutes.
 * reason: The reason for the quotation request. If omitted, "Quotation needed from source to verify." will be used. This text is shown as a tooltip.
