{{template shortcut|Quotefarm|Too many quotes}}<br />
<br />
=== Usage ===<br />
This template should not be [[Wikipedia:Substitution|substituted]].<br />
<br />
If there are are too many or overly lengthy quotations in a given article, paste this at the '''top of the article''' in question:<br />
: {{Tlx|Over-quotation|date{{=}}{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}<br />
<br />
It takes a numbered or unnumbered first parameter as a substitute for the word "article", e.g. <code>|section</code>. Using {{para|section|yes}} or {{para|section|y}} will also output the specific word "section".<br />
<br />
Like all other cleanup templates, it accepts {{para|date|{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}} or <code><nowiki>|{{subst:DATE}}</nowiki></code>.<br />
<br />
For more specific wording, {{para|many|y}} limits the complaint to '''too many quotations''', while {{para|lengthy|y}} limits it to '''overly lengthy quotations'''.<br />
<br />
When an article uses both '''too many {{em|and}} overly lengthy quotations''', use neither parameter, or explicitly use {{para|both|y}} (trying {{para|many|y}}{{para|lengthy|y}} will suppress, not show, both).<br />
<br />
=== Notes ===<br />
This template will add tagged articles to dated subcategories of [[:Category:Wikipedia articles with style issues by month]] and to [[:Category:All articles with style issues]].<br />
<br />
This [[Wikipedia:Template messages|template]] is a [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Self-references to avoid|self-reference]].<br />
