This version is common to all sites except Wikiquote
Note: Hidden content. This is common usage for a number of templates.

This is a register macro that might alternatively be stated as:

{{#ifeq:{{SITENAME}}|Wikiquote|{{void}}|Q: }}
where 'Q:' is the definition on all other English language sister projects. It's purpose is to simplify local output code and avoid precisely that sort of #ifeq: code statement in working templates.
Locally on Wikiquote (The different version), this template has the effect of replacing the full url version [[Q:Some page name|Some page name]] with a local wikilink version which will then reveal bad links (redlinks) if a page does not exist.
This is used in a number of templates as a sub-template for that reason, especially those needing interwiki portability.

This different method of implementation has instead a hardcoded different fixed value on and off Wikipedia when accessed by the identical template and so allows portable template coding.
