[edit] Usage
This is a template for attributed block quotations. The difference from {{Quote}} is that the {{epigraph}} attribution has the same text size as the quote (instead of being slightly smaller).
The quote parameter is required. The cite parameter is optional. Cut-’n’-paste:
{{epigraph
| quote=
| cite=
}}
[edit] Examples
From "T-26".
{{epigraph
| quote= The tank of the Spanish Civil War: T-26B
| cite= Lucas Molina Franco
}}
