Template:Quote/doc

Usage
Quote is a template meant for displaying quotations. Quotes work best when used with short sentences, and at the start or end of a section, as a hint of the following section's content.

Parameters

 * Parameter 1: text of the quote; use  between paragraphs.
 * Required
 * Note: if the quote text contains one or more "=" (equal signs), then the template must be called as (see "Equals sign in parameter value")


 * author: Name of the person that wrote or spoke the text being quoted. Can include wiki syntax.
 * source: Source of the quote (publication title, speech, etc.). Can include wiki syntax.
 * bgcolor: The color of the background.
 * float: Defaults to center, but can also be right or left
 * wide: When set to "yes", the quote expands to the entire width of the page. Useful for small quotes, but may clash with other floating objects, such as infoboxes.

Simple example
"To be, or not to be."
