[edit] Size of quotations marks
The quotes size should be smaller, since teh closing quotation mark gets cut. See above and almost every example on ED, but mine, of course.--Richard Dreyfuss 11:52, 9 September 2007 (CDT)
[edit] Why do things fuck up for me ;;
Is it just me, or doesn't the template like external links attached to the italicized text?-Ketthe KangaJewSodomy plz 18:40, 30 November 2007 (CST)
- Usually, it does. If you have problems with the template rejecting your variables, try an alternate syntax: {{Quote|1=Quote Text|2=Person|3=Cited source|color=silver|size=360%}}. It's not nearly as neat that way, but it does the job. The template parser probably got confused by the pipe in [[User:Mori|Mori]]. --Blu Aardvark 18:55, 30 November 2007 (CST)
- Ah, that makes sense. I see it is working now, so YAY-Ketthe KangaJewSodomy plz 19:00, 30 November 2007 (CST)
[edit] Fucking Commas
I changed the comma between quotee and source to a hyphen, because 99% of the articles that use quote don't have a source, so it looks like "-JewLover444, " which is gay. This way, it still works if there's a source, and if not, it looks kawaii. --Ntg85 15:51, 2 December 2007 (CST)
- We made {{quote2}} for that purpose. --Blu Aardvark 16:49, 2 December 2007 (CST)
- ok, so all we have to do is go through every damn page using quote and change it! \^_^/ --Ntg85 16:51, 2 December 2007 (CST)
- I Lol'd. --Sheneequa • Talk 16:55, 2 December 2007 (CST)
- I see what you mean. I wouldn't be any fan of doing that myself. --Blu Aardvark 16:57, 2 December 2007 (CST)
- I reversed the templates. {{quote}} now has no comma, or the cite after it. {{quote2}} (shortcut {{q2}}) has the cite. There will undoubtedly be some things needing cleanup, quotes with cites needing to be renamed to the new template, but this will work fine on it's own without breaking existing quotes, so... --18:19, 2 December 2007 (CST)

- Oh, lol. I hit five tildes instead of four again, didn't I? --Blu Aardvark 18:57, 2 December 2007 (CST)
