Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, it should be <blockquote>. I don't know how extensively the majority of the userbase has customized their style sheets. It should be reasonably simple for them to correct, if it causes them problems, right?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I couldn't think why it would be anything but.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Yeah, even for those who have done a lot, it would just be a matter of search/replace for that selector.

edit: better still, for anyone who has restyled the t cite tag in custom css, instead of replacing it with

blockquote
replace it with
cite, blockquote
That will catch both, in case of naughty people who don't use the quick-edits. Like I didn't on my first attempt there, and you see what trouble it brought me!

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Would it be bad form to search the table containing personal CSSes to see if it's even an issue?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Will making this change make the ">" and "]" quick edits interchangeable?

t really too ignorant to be in this conversation, but curious

I can't see any issue with a search to see how many people are touching it; just a few people would have a different impact than lots. (I'd also be really curious to know something about how many people are customizing at all, and how much - in a totally anonymous way, of course)

We don't have any tags that generate t blockquote . ']' generates t dfn .

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb

I use cite in my CSS, so I can change the color of the text. It makes it easy to pick out what's being cited as separate from the rest of the text.

Hmm, why are we using t dfn anyway? Leaving the semantics aside, it's an inline element that we're using as block.

edit: "semantics aside". Hahahahahahahaha. I see what I did there.
