Description

This feature request is for a tool that would enable easy quoting and referencing of any content on a Tiki site, for example, to quote a forum post on a wiki page, or one blog post in another, etc.

Maybe it would be activated by clicking a switch in a module (side column), then selecting some text. Then in the referencing page, when you paste, it pastes not only the selected text but also wikiplugin syntax in which the text is the data and the url of the text's source as a parameter. The quote is displayed like a quote plugin output, and the source is displayed as a link.

The use case that started the thinking about this was a question about how to easily cite Tiki forum posts from a wiki page, without a lot of copying and pasting. Rather than hardcoding it to be forum and wiki specific, a global copy-paste site content referencing tool could be useful in other ways.
