Markdown Blockquotes

Basic Syntax

Add the > symbol followed by a space at the start of a paragraph.
You only need to use > on the first line, and the rest of the content will be automatically included in the blockquote.

> I love Spurs
> I bet they're going to win the championship.

I love Spurs
I bet they're going to win the championship.

Nested Blockquotes

Blockquotes support nesting. Use one > for the outermost layer, two > for the first nested layer, and so on.

> I love Spurs
>> I bet they're going to win the championship.

I love Spurs

I bet they're going to win the championship.

Use Lists inside Blockquotes

Use lists in blockquotes

  1. First item
  2. Second item
  • First item
  • Second item
  • Third item

Use Blockquotes inside Lists

To insert a blockquote within a list item, indent four spaces before the > symbol.

Here is an example of blockquotes inside lists:

* First item
    > I love Spurs.  
    > I bet they're going to win the championship.
* Second item
  • First item

    I love Spurs.
    I bet they're going to win the championship.

  • Second item
