In "Mid-career", where does the quotation from Dr. Jim Brook's essay end? It begins in the middle of the first paragraph with an open single quote, as is British usage, but there's no close quote at the end of the paragraph. The next paragraph certainly reads like part of such an essay, but there's no open quote at the start and no close quote anywhere.

Whatever the bounds of this quotation, at this length it would be better blockquoted than demarcated with the rather inconspicuous single quote character. --[[User:Thnidu|Thnidu]] ([[User talk:Thnidu|talk]]) 17:43, 28 December 2015 (UTC)

Quotation

In "Mid-career", where does the quotation from Dr. Jim Brook's essay end? It begins in the middle of the first paragraph with an open single quote, as is British usage, but there's no close quote at the end of the paragraph. The next paragraph certainly reads like part of such an essay, but there's no open quote at the start and no close quote anywhere.

Whatever the bounds of this quotation, at this length it would be better blockquoted than demarcated with the rather inconspicuous single quote character. ... And I am going to do just that, on the assumption that its bounds are as I just described.
