Portal talk:San Francisco Bay Area/Quotes/Archive

This page lists all the selected quotes at the SFBA portal, to review content and avoid duplicates. to add new quotes, find a documented quote at wikiquotes, and add it following the guidelines below.

Click on the first redlink below (current example is "10"), and create the page with the following text:

<center>{{cquote|<big>'''QUOTE'''</big><br />}} ~ [[AUTHOR]], INFORMATION ABOUT THE SOURCE/ORIGINS, WITH APPROPRIATE LINKS</center> *[[wikiquote:San Francisco|'''more quotes about San Francisco from Wikiquote''']] [[Category:San Francisco Bay Area portal quotes pages]]

Then, increase the parameter by +1 at Portal:San Francisco Bay Area, at the wikimarkup code:

{{Random portal component|max=9|header=Quotes|footer=<small><small>| subpage=Quotes}}

This means the above sample would go from 9 to 10. if you make the parameter too large, you get a blank space where a quote should be.

Then, copy the newly created subpages contents, minus the category, to this pages section for it. This duplicates the content, so any further editing must be done twice, but it also makes it easy to edit this page in general.
