Template:Quote

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template is integrated many times. If you know exactly what the effects are, you can edit it. In most cases, however, it makes sense to first vote on change requests on Template Discussion.

This template is used to simplify the integration of literature citations.
