A quotation is a type of post that includes a subset of the contents of another post, and a citation of that other post.

A quotation of the entirety of another post should be a repost instead.

A quotation which uses the name/title of another post (rather than its content) should be a bookmark instead.

A quotation can be minimally marked up as a note, with the entry content (e-content) containing:

a <blockquote> that wraps the quoted text itself (including explicit quotes "" “”)
a <cite class="h-cite"> that wraps a citation of the source of the quotation, with at a minimum:
- a nested hyperlink (<a href>) linking to the source, ideally using a fragmention directly to (at least the start of) the quotation.
- link text of the name of the article/book/source

Aaron Parecki posts bookmarks on http://aaronparecki.com/bookmarks using p3k since 2014-09-07 (and using WordPress from 2006-12-10 to 2014-09-06), some of which include a quotation, e.g.:

Some quotations are posted as plaintext notes rather than as a bookmark.

Tumblr supports an explicit quotation post kind, and presents quotation posts differently from other posts. (needs screenshots using default Tumblr skin)
