'''{{tl|Cquote}}''' is a template meant for [[:en:pull-quote|pull-quotes]], which stand apart from the text of a page.  It generally should not be used in articles unless there is a good justification for doing so. Pull-quotes work best when used with short quotes, and at the start or end of a section, to help emphasize the content of the section. For shorter pull-quotes of 50 words or fewer in a similar style, consider using {{tl|Rquote}}.

'''NOTE''': This template should '''not be used''' for [[block quote]]s in article text.  For long quotations in the text, the [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style#Quotations|Manual of Style]] recommends using the HTML &lt;[[blockquote]]&gt; element, such as through the use of the {{tl|Quote}} template.
