Insert the text of the quote here, without quotation marks.

{{Quote}} adds a Wikipedia:block quote to an article page.

This is easier to type and more wiki-like than the equivalent HTML <blockquote> tags, has additional pre-formatted attribution and source parameters, and contains a workaround for Wikipedia:Bugzilla:6200, which means you don't need to type <p> tags manually.

Note: Block quotes do not normally contain quotation marks. See Formatting block quotations.

Note: This template does work correctly if the phrase contains characters found in some URLs.
