<includeonly>{{#if:{{{mos-recommended|}}}||</includeonly>{{warning|If this template is used in article space, it will suppress the display of decorative curly quote marks, per [[MOS:BLOCKQUOTE]].}} <includeonly>}}</includeonly> The [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style#Block quotations|Manual of Style guidelines for block quotations]] recommend formatting block quotations using the {{tl|Blockquote}} 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, {{tl|Cquote}} (for use outside of article space only) provides a borderless quote with decorative quotation marks, and {{tl|Quote frame}} provides a bordered quote. Both span the page width. * For very short quotes, {{tl|Rquote}} (with decorative quotation marks, for use outside of article space only) or {{tl|Quote box}} (framed) can be used to set the quote off to either the right or left as in a magazine [[Sidebar (publishing)|sidebar]]. This can be effective on [[WP:ESSAY|essay]] pages and [[WP:WIKIPROJECT|WikiProject]] homepages.<noinclude> {{Documentation|content=This is shared documentation verbiage transcluded into the /doc pages of everything in [[:Category:Enhanced quote templates]].}}</noinclude>
