Usage

The {{quote box}} template allows you to easily put a quote (and its source) inside a box, with flexible control over bordering, background color, alignment, and other features. The box itself is floating div, which (like images) can appear on the right or left or across the entire page. Article text will wrap around the div in the first two cases. This is useful in articles that are short on images and need some graphic-like element, or where an important or interesting quote wants to be presented in a way that sets it off from the surrounding text.

Caution: This is a div-based template, and may break if indented using wikitext syntax. This is a current limitation of the Wikipedia HTML parsing software.

Parameters

Basic parameters

title = Optional title to appear at the top of the quote box.
quote = The quote or text to be displayed in the box.
source = Optional source of the quote (author, publication, etc.).

Main box styling

align: Alignment of the quote box on the page—left / right / center / none. Defaults to right alignment. Using align=none will remove word wrapping.
width: The width of the quote box. Defaults to the width of the quote included, unless |align=center where the width will default to 100%.
border: The width of the quote box border. Defaults to 1px. Remember to include 'px' or 'em' to specify the correct width.
fontsize: The fontsize of the quote box text. Defaults to 88%.
bgcolor: The RGB background color of the box. Defaults to #F9F9F9 (light gray).
style: A generic CSS style parameter. Entries in this parameter supersede any duplicates in the preceding parameters.

Title styling

title_bg: The RGB background color of the title. Defaults to #F9F9F9 (light gray).
title_fnt: The title font color. Defaults to black.
tstyle: A generic CSS style parameter. Entries in this parameter supersede any duplicates in the preceding title parameters.

Quote styling

qalign: Alignment of the quote element—left / right / center. Defaults to left.
qstyle: A generic CSS style parameter. Entries in this parameter supersede any duplicates in the preceding quote parameters.
quoted: If this parameter evaluates to true (is not 0, false, or empty) the quote box will enclose the quote in fat-quotes. Use judiciously, and read the Manual of Style.

Source styling

salign: Alignment of the source element—left / right / center. Defaults to the value of qalign.
sstyle: A generic CSS style parameter. Entries in this parameter supersede any duplicates in the preceding source parameters.

Floating and wrapping

Minimal code, defaults to floating right and minimal width:

{{Quote box
 |quote  = Cry "Havoc", and let slip the dogs of war.
 |source = [[William Shakespeare]], ''[[Julius Caesar (play)|Julius Caesar]]'', Act III, Scene I.
}}
{{Lorem ipsum}}

Cry "Havoc", and let slip the dogs of war.

William Shakespeare, Julius Caesar, Act III, Scene I.

The Spider and the Fly

“Will you walk into my parlour?” said the Spider to the Fly,
'Tis the prettiest little parlour that ever you did spy;
The way into my parlour is up a winding stair,
And I've a many curious things to shew when you are there.”
“Oh no, no,” said the little Fly, “to ask me is in vain,
For who goes up your winding stair can ne'er come down again.”

Note that, although |halign=center, the centering is reset after the {{hidden begin}}, since that template applies its own styling. This can be resolved by using |bodystyle= in {{hidden begin}} with appropriate markup; in this case:

{{hidden begin |bodystyle=width: auto; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;}}
