Special:Badtitle/NS90:Forum:Wiki Talk/Quotes are badly formatted/reply (15)

Okay, at least part of that one, Ken, is the embedded equals sign in the YouTube link. Whenever you have an "=" inside a template, you need to "escape" it by putting double curly brackets around it, like so: =.

(This is really a template that does nothing but put an equals sign where it is, but it gets around something in MediaWiki that barfs on equals signs.)

Another thing that will mess up quotes is imbalanced italics and/or bold. The first portion of the quote -- the quote itself -- must have all markup starts balanced with closes, or it'll insert weird line breaks around the attribution part of the quote data.

In any case, I edited the quote on Sega Saturn so that it displays properly; check it out, as it demonstrates both of these problems and their solutions.
