Template:Tqbm/doc

Template page

{{Tqbm}} stands for Talk quote block minimalist, which is a minimalist version of Template:Talk quote block, used for quoting others on talk pages. This template is useful for quoting, without placing any emphasis or highlightening on the comment, as {{tqb{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}}} and {{tqi{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}{{---}}}} do.

Usage

{{tqbm|Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.}}

produces:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.

Though a block element is rendered, this template behaves like an inline element in wikitext. This template can be intuitively used even after colon indentations, and even multiple times in a single line of wikitext.

::{{tqbm|some ... quoted ... text}} Your response here. [[User:Isidore|Isidore]] ([[User talk:Isidore|talk]]) 23:34, 9 January 2024 (PST)

gives the same output as:

::{{tqbm|some ... quoted ... text}} 
::Your response here. [[User:Isidore|Isidore]] ([[User talk:Isidore|talk]]) 23:34, 9 January 2024 (PST)

By design, this template doesn't support any parameters other than a single unnamed parameter for the quoted text. If you need to mention the editor's name in the quotation, you can do simply by putting that at the end of the message, as in:

{{tqbm|No, you have to be kidding me. Every single person who signed this petition needs to go back to check their premises and think harder about what it means to be honest, factual, truthful.

OODA WIKI's policies around this kind of thing are exactly spot-on and correct. If you can get your work published in respectable scientific journals - that is to say, if you can produce evidence through replicable scientific experiments, then OODA WIKI will cover it appropriately.

What we won't do is pretend that the work of lunatic charlatans is the equivalent of "true scientific discourse". It isn't. ~ [[User:Jimmy Wales]] via [[OODA WIKI:Lunatic charlatans]]}}

which produces:

To create an indented multi-line quote (such as within a a reply on a talk page), use <br/> tags to indicate the line breaks, but do not use manual line breaks. Refer to the following example:

:here is my multi-line quote in a reply to your comment:
:{{tqbm|Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.<br/>Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.<br/> ~ [[User:Example|Example]], 13:52, 1 November 2023 (UTC)}}
: [[User:Isidore|Isidore]] ([[User talk:Isidore|talk]]) 23:34, 9 January 2024 (PST)

which produces:
