=== Next to right-floated boxes === {{As of|2015|09|post=,}} the text of a block quotation may rarely overflow (in Firefox or other Gecko browsers) a right-floated item (e.g. a {{tlx|Listen}} box, when that item is below another right-floated item of a fixed size that is narrower. In Safari and other Webkit browsers (and even more rarely in Chrome/Chromium) the same condition can cause the block quotation to be pushed downward. Both of these problems can be fixed by either: # removing the sizing on the upper item and letting it use its default size (e.g. removing <code>{{var|###}}x{{var|###}}px</code> sizing or {{para|upright}} from a right-floated image above a wider right-floated object that is being overflowed by quotation text; or # using {{para|style|{{code|lang=css|code=overflow:inherit;}}}} in the quotation template. There may be other solutions, and future browser upgrades may eliminate the issue. It arises at all because of the <syntaxhighlight lang="css" inline>blockquote {overflow: hidden;}</syntaxhighlight> CSS declaration in [[Mediawiki:Common.css]], which itself works around other, more common display problems. A solution that fixes {{em|all}} of the issues is unknown at this time.
