{{About|tagging excessively long quotations inline|styling a long quotation as an indented block|Template:Blockquote}}
This template may be used to add an inline, superscript tag to mark an excessively long quotation which should have its content integrated into the article text. Articles tagged with this template will be categorized into [[:Category:Wikipedia articles with style issues]].

{{tlc|long quote |reason{{=}}''Your reason here.'' |date{{=}}{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}

* {{para|date}} – date (month + year) when the template was placed; example: {{para|date|{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}; no default

== Example ==

<code><nowiki>Body text with "Really long quotation in it".{{long quote |reason=Foo bar baz.}}</nowiki></code> ⟶
