Quoted text referred to here is a quote from Help that does not contain any quotation marks. Unfortunately, you're missing the obvious again, so I'll disconnect from your off-topic.

Yes, it is clear from the beginning what post/text is it, and from the beginning it is clear (at least I hope to the majority) which part of the post is a quote from Help, and which part is an addition from the author of the post - as it was stated here. There is nothing more we can do to understand this very obvious thing. Regards.
