Template {{talk quote inline with count}} (a.k.a. {{TQC}} or {{tqc}}) is used in talk pages to highlight a short excerpt of quoted material of other editors' comments or text from an article.
The template also provides a character count for the quoted text. This can be useful in talk page discussions about Short descriptions.
Usage
This template is not intended for use in articles, and displays an error message if it is used in the article namespace.
|1= The text to highlight with the template. As with all templates, when the text, given as the template parameter, contains an equals character (=), prefixing the text with |1= is required to ensure the character is correctly interpreted as being part of the normal text; otherwise it will break the template.
|italic=yes or |i=yes will force the content to be green and italicised only (no change to serif font style); any value may be used, e.g. |i=y. This is typically used inside a block of text that is already serif-styled to make the highlighted text stand out better.
|quotes=yes or |q=yes adds quotation marks around the coloured text.
Examples
{{tqc|Lorem ipsum '''dolor''' sit}} → Lorem ipsum dolor sit (27 characters)

Designed to format poetry simply and reliably; it differs from {{Poem quote}} in two significant ways: it does not add spacing around the poem that sets it apart as “block quote”, and it automatically provides hanging indentation when lines are so long that they wrap
