Template:Quote of the day/doc: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 04:39, 19 March 2024

This template selects an item from a pool of quotes based on the day of the year.

Hello! Here's how to add quotes to this template:

Scroll down to the bottom of the page and look for:
- 
Read this, and put quotes above that using this formatting:
- | (number) = Quote
- Remember to keep the indent!
- Do not repeat numbers
Scroll up to the top and find:
- {{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: U}} mod QUOTESNUMBER}}
Then change "QUOTESNUMBER" to the highest current quote
- Your quote will not be displayed if you do not do this

What you should not put in this template:

Quotes from people besides Daniel\
Fake quotes
- While you don't have to cite sources, it is very much recommended
Quotes that say slurs at all, even if censored, this is explicitly against the wiki guidelines
Remember this is being displayed on the front page when adding quotes
