==Quotations Without a Box==
To add an indented quotation without any surrounding box, type: <tt>{&#123;Quote-text|###|###}}</tt>
The parameters are used in the same way as in the Quote template described above. For example,
to quote {{Quran|2|256}}, this is what has to be typed:
:<tt>{&#123;Quote-text|{&#123;Quran|2|29}}|He it is Who created for you all that is in the earth. Then turned He to the heaven, and fashioned it as seven heavens. And He is knower of all things.}}</tt>
And it should produce this:
{{Quote-text|{{Quran|2|29}}|He it is Who created for you all that is in the earth. Then turned He to the heaven, and fashioned it as seven heavens. And He is knower of all things.}}
