   Format: MarkdownItexI can't find the discussion, but it seems to me there was recent discussion about how to quote text and the usage of the > symbol, which is now deprecated (?). Am I dreaming? There is nothing about quoting in [[HowTo]]; I'd like to add in the accepted way to do this. My immediate target for this is the quotation of Deligne in [[dichotomy between nice objects and nice categories]].

   Format: MarkdownItexThanks, David. In that discussion there is Urs#69, where he says he fixes the misuses of > for blockquotes when he sees them. However, I don't know how he changes them, or what is the preferred action. Urs, could you shed light on this please?
