This template is meant for [[pull quote]]s, the visually distinctive {{em|repetition}} of text that is {{em|already present}} on the same page.  In most cases, this is not appropriate for use in encyclopedia articles. The [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style#Block quotations|Manual of Style guidelines for block quotations]] recommend formatting block quotations using the {{tlx|Quote}} template or the HTML &lt;[[blockquote]]&gt; element, for which that template provides a wrapper.
