Introduction

This module provides the underlying implementation of quote-* templates such as , and . These templates themselves are implemented using template code which calls this module using . The module also implements a higher-level interface onto the quote-* templates using (documented below) to simplify writing work-specific quotation templates such as and . It also provides the implementation of to simplify writing documentation for work-specific quotation templates.

call_quote_template

This is an interface onto quote-* templates such as . See for an example. If you write the code the way of this example, it automatically handles |text=, |passage=, |footer=, |brackets= and |authorlink=, and optionally |page= and |pages=. This means you don't have to propagate them explicitly. In general, any arguments given directly to are passed directly to the underlying quote-* template (usually ), except for the control parameters given below. In addition, certain other arguments are automatically propagated from the outer template (e.g. the call to ) to the underyling template (e.g. ). Specifically:

• The |template= control parameter specifies the name of the quote-* template to call, defaulting to quote-book.
• The |textparam= control parameter controls the propagation of the |text= and |passage= parameters and any synonyms. If not given, |text= and |passage= (preferring the former) are passed to the |passage= parameter of the underlying quote-* template. If given, it should be a comma-separated list of parameters that are synonyms for |text=/|passage=; if neither of these is seen, the specified parameters are passed to the |passage= parameter of the underlying quote-* template (processed from left to right if multiple synonyms are given). Specifying |textparam=- disables propagation of |text= and |passage=.
• The |pageparam= control parameter controls the propagation of the |page= and |pages= parameters and any synonyms. If not given, neither parameter is propagated. If given, |page= and any synonymous parameters specified by |pageparam= (a comma-separated list of parameters) are propagated to the |page= parameter of the underlying quote-* template, and |pages= is propagated to the |pages= parameter of the underlying quote-* template. If there are no synonyms for |page=, but the propagation behavior is still desired, just specify |pageparam=page.
• The |brackets= parameter is automatically propagated.
• The |footer= parameter is automatically propagated and surrounded by a call to .
• If a value for |author= is given to , and no value for |authorlink= is given, and the value given for |author= does not have any links or HTML in it, it is propagated to the |authorlink= parameter of the underlying quote-* template.
• The |propagateparams= control parameter is a comma-separated list of any additional params to propagate to the underlying quote-* template, so you don't have to manually propagate these parameters.
• The |allowparams= control parameter lists the parameters that are allowed in the outer template (e.g. ), in addition to those mentioned above. It should be a comma-separated list of parameters. Parameters not listed and not handled specially will cause an error if given. This allows for parameter checking. If the value is *, parameter checking is disabled.
