|1=or|page=; or|pages=– mandatory: the page number(s) quoted from. When quoting a range of pages, note the following:- Separate the first and last pages of the range with an en dash, like this:
|pages=10–11. - You must also use

- This parameter must be specified for the template to determine the act number (I or II) quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.

|page=34.
|act=– mandatory in some cases: in most cases, if the page number is specified, the template will determine the act number quoted from. However, it is unable to do so if page 18 is specified, in which case either|act=Ior|act=IImust be specified.

Act II pages 18–34 |
|2=,|text=, or|passage=– the passage to be quoted.|footer=– a comment on the passage quoted.|brackets=– use|brackets=onto surround a quotation with brackets. This indicates that the quotation either contains a mere mention of a term (for example, "some people find the word manoeuvre hard to spell") rather than an actual use of it (for example, "we need to manoeuvre carefully to avoid causing upset"), or does not provide an actual instance of a term but provides information about related terms.
