For more than once, in my wiki site, using WikiMedia, I've searched how to render the <q></q> tags with their attribute. But I've never found. And the Help does not mention the (in)existence of that tags. So I ask you to include it in a further version, if it is possible. According to the (X)HTML specs, this tag is an inline tag, and if it is included, I'd like it to be considered as well, with its 'cite' attribute. Otherwise, I'd use the <blockquote></blockquote> tags (used in WikiMedia thanks to the ": " mark).
Reassigning to enhancement severity as this is a feature request.
Unfortunately the q tag has mixed support in browsers, and at this time it's better to just type quotation marks.
I'm going to go ahead and WONTFIX this. <q> is being dropped in XHTML 2.0, and browser support is at best inconsistent for older versions of HTML.
The <q> element are correctly supported by all recent browsers now. Moreover, it's part of HTML 4, XHTML 1 and future HTML 5 standard. Is it possible to include them in a further version?

In general, references (URLs, specs) are highly welcome for statements. According to https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/HTML/Element/q : Specification Status HTML5 Candidate Recommendation HTML 4.01 Spec Recommendation
