The bulleted list can be indented further by prepending other asterisks colon ** or two *** or three **** (etc.), for more indentation, each of which creates a new unordered list.

In English writing, quotation marks or inverted commas, also known informally as quotes, talking marks, [1] [2] speech marks, [3] quote marks, quotemarks or speechmarks, are punctuation marks placed on either side of a word or phrase in order to identify it as a quotation, direct speech or a literal title or name.
To change this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used: {{Quotation templates | state = collapsed}} will show the template collapsed, i.e. hidden apart from its title bar. {{Quotation templates | state = expanded}} will show the template expanded, i.e. fully visible.
Quotation marks for emphasis of a single word or phrase are incorrect, and "scare quotes" are discouraged. Quotation marks are to show that you are using the correct word as quoted from the original source. For example: His tombstone was inscribed with the name "Aaron" instead of the spelling he used during his life.
