The Manual of Style guidelines for block quotations recommend formatting block quotations using the {{Quote}} template or the HTML <blockquote> element, for which that template provides a wrapper.
- Quotes work best when used with short sentences, and at the start or end of a section, as a hint of or to help emphasize the section's content.
- For typical quotes, especially those longer than the rest of the paragraph in which they are quoted,
{{Cquote}}provides a borderless quote with decorative quotation marks, and{{Quote frame}}provided a bordered quote. Both span the page width. - For very short quotes,
{{Rquote}}(with decorative quotation marks) or{{Quote box}}(framed) can be used to set the quote off to either the right or left as in a magazine sidebar. This can be effective on essay pages and WikiProject homepages.
