This module allows for easier and more consistent formatting of quotations. It uses Module:Quotations as a back-end.

Parameters

уреди
|1=
The language of the quotation.
|2=
The name of the author
|3=
The title of the work
|4=, |5=, |6=, |7=, |8=
The reference of the text within the work, with chapters, verses, subverses, etc. each added in a separate parameter, using as many (or as few) as are needed
|thru=
Used to specify a range, so if the passage is 1:120–122, use |3=1|4=120|thru=122
|quote=
The actual text
|year=
The year or range of years of the work
|t= or |trans=
An English translation of the text
|transyear=
The year of the translation
|transauthor=
The author of the translation
|tr=
A manual Latin transliteration for quotes in non-Latin script; often unnecessary, as many languages automatically transliterate
|lit=
A literal translation
|notes=
Parentheses enclosed information after the reference.
|object=
The object or artifact on which the work is found, e.g. for ancient papyri or tombs.
|refn=
To include references or links to a source for the quotation, such as a book or external site. They can be enclosed in <ref> tags or {{refn}}.
|form=
Determines the amount of information presented. The default is full, which displays all information. inline skips the year, quote, and translation, work further trims the author, and ref further eliminates the work, leaving only the chapter and verse(s).
|style=
Determines the format of the work’s title. The default is i (italicized). Other possible values are no (unformatted) and q (enclosed in quotation marks).

With the exception of the first parameter, all parameters are optional; the template/module is designed to work around whatever information is given.

Operation

уреди

The module accesses language-specific libraries of information on works and authors, and if the information is coded, will add formatting to the quote, such as linking the author and/or work, as well as linking to the relevant text. If no information can be found on the information given, it will simply display it with basic text formatting. Thus the following code results in the following displays:

{{Q|grc|Homer|Iliad|1|23}} ----> Homer, Iliad 1.23

{{Q|grc|Author|Work|Chapter 1|Verse 2}} ----> Author, Work Chapter 1.Verse 2
