Bugs
- As of 28 November 2015[update] using {{quote frame}} in a discussion that will later be archived with {{archive top}} and {{archive bottom}} will cause problems if the line in which the template is used in is intended with colons. In other words, avoid doing this if you expect the discussion to be archived using the "archive top" and "archive bottom" templates:
- :{{quote frame|quoted material}}
Example of bug:
{{archive top}} Some text here. :{{quote frame|quoted text}} More text here. {{archive bottom}}
results in:
Template:Archive top Some text here.
- quoted text
More text here. Template:Archive bottom
