Why use the pull-quote format for block quotes? This sets a terrible example. See Manual_of_Style. GeorgeLouis (talk) 16:34, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
 * As per WP:MOS, "The Manual of Style ... is a style manual for all Wikipedia articles." The Signpost is in the Wikipedia namespace, not the (Main/Article) namespace (see WP:PRJ). As WP:ARTICLE states, "Disambiguation pages, templates, navboxes, user pages, discussion pages, file pages, category pages, help pages and Wikipedia policy pages are not articles." Therefore WP:MOS does not apply. Furthermore, the Signpost is a newsletter, and necessarily employs a different style. Even the methods for the Wikikpedia namespace are different at the Mediawiki level; for instance, external links are represented differently than in the (Main/Article) namespace.

 * P.S. I use the liberally in the Signpost, but at the same time, if I encountered it in an article, I would be among the first to make an edit converting it to a quote template that did adhere to WP:MOS. Peaceray (talk) 20:34, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
