To make the block quote content accessible, follow these rules:
- Must be quoted from another source, whose address, if it has one, may be cited in the attribute
- If the attribute is present:
- Must be a valid URL
- Link only to canonical end-state URLs with no parameter appended
- Capitalize the cited source title the same as the author does
