== Usage ==
{{hatnote|Compatibility warning: This template uses {{para|title}} for the italicized title of a major work, not for a heading above the quotation as some other templates do.}}
This template provides a quotation in a bordered box, on a light grey background, and spanning the page width by default. {{strong|Do not put quotation marks around the quoted material.}}

{{Markup
| <nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}}<nowiki> |quote=Quoted material |author=Author |title=Title |source=other details}}</nowiki>

<nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}}<nowiki>|Quoted material|Author|Title|other details}}</nowiki>
| {{ {{BASEPAGENAME}}|Quoted material|Author|Title|other details}}
| <nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}}<nowiki> |quote=Quoted material |author=Author |source="Article Title", ''Newspaper Name'', date}}</nowiki>

<nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}}<nowiki>|Quoted material|Author||"Article Title", ''Newspaper Name'', date}}</nowiki>
| {{ {{BASEPAGENAME}}|Quoted material|Author||"Article Title", ''Newspaper Name'', date}}In the short syntax, the 3rd parameter (which auto-italicizes) has been included but left empty to skip it, and we use the 4th to manually apply italics where needed.
| <nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}}<nowiki> |quote=Quoted material |author=Author |title=Title}}</nowiki>

<nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}}<nowiki>|Quoted material|Author|Title}}</nowiki>
| {{ {{BASEPAGENAME}}|Quoted material|Author|Title}}
| <nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}}<nowiki> |quote=Quoted material}}</nowiki>

<nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}}<nowiki>|Quoted material}}</nowiki>
| {{ {{BASEPAGENAME}}|Quoted material}}
| <nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}}<nowiki> |quote=Quoted material |source="Article Title", ''Newspaper Name'', date}}</nowiki>

<nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}}<nowiki>|Quoted material|||"Article Title", ''Newspaper Name'', date}}</nowiki>
| {{ {{BASEPAGENAME}}|Quoted material|||"Article Title", ''Newspaper Name'', date}}In the short syntax, we skip two parameters by giving them empty.
| <nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}}<nowiki>|Quoted material |align=center}}</nowiki>
| {{ {{BASEPAGENAME}}|Quoted material|align=center}}
| <nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}}<nowiki>|Quoted material |align=right}}</nowiki>
| {{ {{BASEPAGENAME}}|Quoted material|align=right}}
| <nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}}<nowiki>|Quoted material |align=right |width=33%}}</nowiki>
| {{ {{BASEPAGENAME}}|Quoted material|align=right|width=33%}}
}}

The {{para|width}} parameter takes any valid CSS width value, such as {{kbd|33%}} or {{kbd|25em}}. This should not be specified in fixed pixel sizes (like {{!mxt|100px}}). As shown in the table above, the width is relative to the size of the container not the entire page, so the displayed width will be smaller if used inside a table.

=== The equal sign (<kbd>=</kbd>) ===

If any of the parameters' content include an equal sign (<code>=</code>) in its input, this will make the template not recognize the parameter properly unless:
* The parameters are named or numbered:
{{in5}}{{tlx|{{BASEPAGENAME}} |quote{{=}}Einstein's equation, {{var|E}}{{=}}{{var|m}}{{var|c}}{{sup|2}}, has to reach everywhere. Science is a beautiful gift to humanity, we should not distort it. |author{{=}}Abdul Kalam}}<br />
{{in5}}{{tlx|{{BASEPAGENAME}} |1{{=}}Einstein's equation, {{var|E}}{{=}}{{var|m}}{{var|c}}{{sup|2}}, has to reach everywhere. Science is a beautiful gift to humanity, we should not distort it. |2{{=}}Abdul Kalam}}
* The <code>=</code> in the content is escaped with the {{tlx|{{=}}}} template:
{{in5}}{{tlx|{{BASEPAGENAME}}|Einstein's equation, {{var|E}}<nowiki>{{=}}</nowiki>{{var|m}}{{var|c}}{{sup|2}}, has to reach everywhere. Science is a beautiful gift to humanity, we should not distort it.|Abdul Kalam}}
* The <code>=</code> in the content is escaped with the <code>&#61;</code> character reference:
{{in5}}{{tlx|{{BASEPAGENAME}}|Einstein's equation, {{var|E}}&#61;{{var|m}}{{var|c}}{{sup|2}}, has to reach everywhere. Science is a beautiful gift to humanity, we should not distort it.|Abdul Kalam}}
