 I'll just say you can use whichever one you want, and play around with them, and if one seems to you better than the other, then maybe we can see about changing [[Tardis:Quotes]]. Thanks!

+:Here's a funny thing...just by coincidence I think I found the answer to your question. There exists a category called [[:Category:Quote template doesn't work on this page]]. The description on the category page states:
+:::"Quote template doesn't work on this page" contains pages where the current styling of <nowiki>{{quote}}</nowiki> just doesn't work, largely because <nowiki>{{quote}}</nowiki> is in conflict with the table of contents. They are, therefore, candidates ripe for using a different quotation template.
+:There is only one page in this category, [[Lance Parkin]], and if you look at the source code, the quote given is using <nowiki>{{Simplequote}}</nowiki>. So now we know the answer: <nowiki>{{Simplequote}}</nowiki> was created to cover pages that don't work with <nowiki>{{Quote}}</nowiki>.
+:I don't think I would have found this answer if I had been specifically searching for it; I just happened to be looking through maintenance categories and was curious about this one.
