Template:Quote Box

Usage

This template creates a visually prominent pull quote box that floats to the side of text. Different from {{Blockquote}}, which is for block quotations in the main text flow.

Format

{{Quote box
| quote = Quote text here
| author = Author name
| source = Source publication
| align = right
| width = 30%
}}

Or using unnamed parameter:

{{Quote box|Quote text here}}

Examples

Basic pull quote (floats right):

{{Quote box
| quote = Milady defined an alternative, a new net art for a new internet, a whitepill to the blackpill.
| author = Charlotte Fang
| source = Golden Light
}}

Float left:

{{Quote box
| quote = The network itself is a metaphysical force.
| align = left
| width = 25%
}}

Without attribution:

{{Quote box|True posting is egoless and performative.}}

Parameters

• quote or 1: The quote text (italicized automatically).
• author: The person being quoted.
• source: The source work or publication (italicized).
• align: Float direction - "right" (default), "left", or "center".
• width: Box width (default: 30%). Use percentages for responsive design.

When to use

• To highlight a particularly important or representative quote
• To break up long sections of text
• To emphasize a key statement from the subject

When NOT to use

• For standard quotations (use {{Blockquote}} instead)
• Multiple times in the same section (use sparingly)
• For very long quotes (becomes too distracting)

Difference from

• ****: Floats to side, visually prominent, for emphasis/decoration
• ****: In main text flow, for standard long quotations

Creates a styled pull quote box that floats beside text
