==Usage==
<pre>{{quote|The quote text.|Quote author|Quote source}}</pre>

===Linking===
The template automatically links to the quote author and source, if the article exists. To prevent automatic linking, apply bold/italic formatting to the author/source:

<pre>{{quote|I'm Shadow. Shadow the Hedgehog.|'''Shadow'''|''Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games''}}</pre>

To change the link text or destination, just use a normal piped link:

<pre>{{quote|I can build another castle, but you can't build another princess!|[[Bowser|King Koopa]]}}</pre>

===Customization===
The template's bold and italics can also be applied selectively, if needed:

<pre>{{quote|What a pest!|'''[[Wario]]''', CEO of WarioWare|''[[Wario Land 4]]'' instruction booklet}}</pre>

To completely omit italics from the source, use the <code>source</code> parameter or start it with a double quotation mark:

<pre>{{quote|SMBP left my house an absolute MESS!|BrKLnCouple|source=SMBPlumbing.com}}</pre>
<pre>{{quote|That sun is not too bright!|Mario|"[[Sneaky Lying Cheating Giant Ninja Koopas]]"}}</pre>
