Template:Blockquote paragraphs
The <blockquote>
element and any templates that use it do not honor newlines:
Markup | Renders as |
---|---|
<blockquote> Line 1 Line 2 Line 3 Line 4 </blockquote> |
|
The simplest workaround for this is to use the <poem>
tag inside <blockquote>
, which will convert line breaks to <br />
tags:
Markup | Renders as |
---|---|
<blockquote><poem> Line 1 Line 2 Line 3 Line 4 </poem></blockquote> |
|
To markup actual paragraphs within block quotations, entire blank lines can be used between them, which will convert to <p>...</p>
tags:
Markup | Renders as |
---|---|
<blockquote> Paragraph 1 Paragraph 2 Paragraph 3 </blockquote> |
