I see no reason for the usage of the positional alias for source to be marked as incorrect. Aaron Liu (talk) 13:44, 13 October 2023 (UTC)
- As far as I can tell, the "incorrectly" tracking category was installed during a template merge. Now that the category is cleared, it is no longer needed. All of the numbered parameters, as fragile as they are, are supported. I have removed the "incorrectly" tracking entirely and removed
|id=and|diff=, two parameters kept temporarily during a template merge, from the unknown parameter check. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:24, 13 October 2023 (UTC)
Blockquote tag vs this template: strange indentation on mobile edit
Recently the <blockquote> tag has been producing some additional indentation on mobile:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.
This template doesn't do that, even though AFAIK it uses the blockquote element:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.

Quoting from plays or interviews edit
Say I want to quote from a play or interview, e.g.:
Any way to do this while keeping the indentation decent, instead of messed up like in the above example (where I used Template:Poetically break lines)? –Sincerely, A Lime 19:07, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
- What is wrong with how it displays above? It looks OK to me. You could also use {{Hanging indent}} inside of {{Blockquote}}, as below:
