So, is the general rule for quotes from the cartoons to put the name of the show or the name of the episode in the template? I put the name of the episode there when I added the quote template to the recently inserted quotes on the Koopaling articles, since that is how articles like [[Robo Koopa (alter ego)]] do it, but they were all changed to the show names; other uses of episode titles in quote templates have been left intact, however.--[[User:Vellidragon|vellidragon]] 11:38, 20 April 2010 (EDT)

:<s>The template only works if you put either the character who said it or the episode it came from, not both.</s> I would use the character who said it though if I were you. {{User|Marioguy1}}
::Nvm that, I would do <nowiki>{{quote|Hi!|Wendy|Never Koopa a Koopa}}</nowiki> (the parameters are off the top of my head). There is an option for that. {{User|Marioguy1}}
== Use single quotes ==
Since this template includes double quotes, we should use single quotes in the quotation. What about telling this in the template page? [[User:Another gossip-loving Toad|Another gossip-loving Toad]] ([[User talk:Another gossip-loving Toad|talk]]) 02:29, 1 October 2014 (EDT)
== Typeface choice  ==
Was there any reason (beyond stylistic choice) for Times New Roman being used for this template's typeface? --[[User:Stache|Stache]] ([[User talk:Stache|talk]]) 13:03, June 3, 2024 (EDT)
