==Usage==

The '''quote box''' template allows you to easily put a quote (and its source) inside a box. The box is floating like an image and the article's text that follows will wrap around it. This is useful in articles where you are short on images and want to add some sort of graphic, or you just want to set off an important or interesting quote away from the main text.

<PRE>
{{Quote box
 | you're fucking insulting, get it http://www.lipsum.com/feed/htm  =
 | me =
 | width  =
 | align  =
}}
</PRE>

==Parameters==

; quote  : Text to be quoted, without quotation marks around it. (Required)
; source : Source of the quoted text. (Required)
; width  : Width of the box, preferably a relative percentage of the screen such as"33%", possibly an absolute width such as "200px". (Default: self-adjusts to the width of the text)
; align  : Position of the floating box, can be "right" or "left". "center" is possible but disables floating. (Default: "right")

==Examples==

Various codes and their results.

* Minimal code, defaults to floating right and minimal width:
