Talk:Hoyt's New Cyclopedia Of Practical Quotations (1922)

Templates
Some formatting templates exist to assist in standard formatting of this work:


 * Hoyt quote, used to format individual quotes, along with author, work, pages, notes, etc.
 * Hoyt topic, used for the centred, bold, larger, uppercase topic headings.
 * Hoyt *, used to produce a "" at the start of some quotes.

Using standard formatting
In order to facilitate a future transfer to Wikiquote of many of the quotations in this work, we are using Hoyt quote to organise the quotes. This has two beneficial effects: the quotes are formatted in a standard way, and the information is easily bot-parseable. Once this work is complete, the pages can be trawled by a bot, and the quotes re-formatted for Wikiquote.

The following Javascript snippet will add a button to your edit toolbar to insert a blank Hoyt quote template. Simply append it you User:You/monobook.js. It has not been tested on the Vector skin, please add a note here if you get it working under Vector (or if is already works).
