Usage

{{Gbq}} (for glossary block quotation), a.k.a. {{Gquote}}, is a shortcut invocation of {{Quote|style=margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: -0.5em; |...}}. It reduces the large top and bottom padding of block quotations to fit better (and more consistently with other inline-block elements like lists) when used inside definitions in template-formatted glossaries. It supports all of the parameters of {{Quote}}.
