Due to the utterly intractable MediaWiki bug reported at Template:bugzilla, block quoting cannot handle freeform linebreaking for paragraphs and poems and the like. The Template:em solution for this is to use unbroken markup with Template:tag or Template:tag elements:

Template:tnull

Which results in:

The Template:tag element and any templates that use it do not honor newlines: Template:markup

To resolve this, use the Template:xtag tag inside Template:tag: Template:markup

However there is an HTML-comment workaround for readability that lets you do whatever you want, and is even indentable with *, : and # markup:

{{bq|1=<!--

-->Line 1<br/><!--
-->Line 2<br/><!--
-->Line 3<br/><!--
-->Line 4.}}

Or even:

{{bq|1=<!--


-->Line 1<br/><!--

-->Line 2<br/><!--

-->Line 3<br/><!--

-->Line 4.}}

Result of either:

Template:bq {{#invoke:documentation|main|_content={{ {{#invoke:documentation|contentTitle}}}}}}
