In CommonSyntax quotation blocks starts with the ">" symbol as I wrote in the example above.
AFAICS quotations aren't handled in Creole, does it come from another wiki syntax or from CommonSyntax itself ?
I don't know. Looking at http://www.wikimatrix.org/compare/MediaWiki+PBwiki+XWiki you can see different ways of doing indentation (not sure it's the same as quote though): ":" for mediawiki and space for PBWiki. Haven't checked the others.
I don't think we've really been using leading spaces to represent quotes
Me neither.
Also I don't think the space character is a good character for this.
Neither do I.
So my question here: Do we want to have a syntax for quotes/block quotes? And what character to use?
I think we do want to have this syntax and the ">" character sounds good to me.
+1, I guess copy/pasted emails would look nice with this feature.
