[edit] Modified attribution

Modified this template to put the attribution outside of the quotes, rather than inside them.

E.g. (old at left, new at right):

Wii sounds like 'we,' which emphasizes that the console is for everyone. Wii can easily be remembered by people around the world, no matter what language they speak. No confusion. No need to abbreviate. Just Wii.
-Reggie Fils-Aime on the Wii name

I tried that, I'm not all down with the wiki type of coding yet. :P Looks much better. Havok (T/C/c) 13:12, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Major Revamp

I reconfigured a lot of this template. Too many changes to list. Let me know what you think! —Down10 T / C 06:30, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Spaces??

It seems for small quotes, spaces appear to the right of the quote. Can somebody fix this? Danski14 00:06, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Rquote is broken (Redirected to Template:Quotebox)

Someone redirected RQuote to Quotebox and now it is broken in all the pages that use it. This was probably not the smarted move. --CGM1980 20:44, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

You can see above on this page where RQuote is used that it is now broken. --CGM1980 20:44, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 33% width bad

For users with less than 1024×768 resolution (e.g. 800×600), rquote boxes become too narrow, fitting only a couple of words on each line, and pushing excessively downward. It would be good if we could at the least add a min-width of 200 pixels or so, to prevent this problem. But frankly, the template should just in general have a fixed width, to avoid bad formatting on both wide and narrow displays. --jacobolus (t) 21:25, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

I originally wanted a fixed width in scalable em-units, but those aren't as compatible on older web browsers. —Down10 TACO 20:15, 25 December 2007 (UTC)
Are you opposed to adding a min-width? It will be ignored by the oldest browsers, but that doesn't really bother me. --jacobolus (t) 08:58, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
