This Template is used for directly quoting official sourcebooks.
While short inline quotations may be given with simple quotation marks and a citation, longer quotes (more than a phrase or sentence or two) should use this template.
Extended quotes should be reformatted to be summarized and given a citation without directly quoting long passages of copyrighted material.
Usage
The basic implementation of this template:
Do not place extra line-breaks before or after the quote.
{{quoted text|Quoted passage goes here.|citation}}
Footnote citations must be given in the "citation" parameter, separated by a pipe ( | ) in normal format, using either the {{csb}} template or HTML <ref> tags.
Such as:
{{csb|LGG|123}}
{{csb|Living Greyhawk Gazetteer|123}}
{{cite sourcebook|Living Greyhawk Gazetteer|123}}
<ref>''[[Living Greyhawk Gazetteer]] (2000)'', p.123.</ref>
Which display as: [1] [2] [2] [3]
- ↑ Living Greyhawk Gazetteer (2000), p.123.
- ↑ a b Living Greyhawk Gazetteer (2000), p.123.
- ↑ Living Greyhawk Gazetteer (2000), p.123.
Inline citations may be added within the quoted text:
{{quoted text|The Flanaess is particularly blessed in regard to its weather.—WoG folio (1980), p.5}}
"The Flanaess is particularly blessed in regard to its weather.—WoG folio (1980), p.5"
Examples
