As the dedication and epistle dedicatory are unpaginated, use |2= or |page= to specify the "page number" assigned by Google Books or the Internet Archive to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL is https://archive.org/details/worksofandrewmar01marv/page/n8/mode/1up specify |page=8, and if it is https://books.google.com/books?id=QyxWAAAAYAAJ&pg=PP9 specify |page=9.
  • |subchapter= or |subtitle=, and |letter= – the name of a subchapter or subtitle quoted from. If quoting from a letter in volume I, use |letter= to specify the letter number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, and |subchapter= or |subtitle= the name of the letter.
  • |stanza= – the stanza number of a poem quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals.
  • |date=, or (|month= and) |year= – if quoting from one of the letters in volume I, use |date= to specify the date of the letter in the format 17 November 1660 or November 17, 1660. The date will be converted from the Julian to the Gregorian calendar. If only the month and year, or year alone, of the letter is known, use |month= and/or |year= to specify this information.
  • |2= or |page=, or |pages=mandatory: the page number(s) quoted from in Arabic or lowercase Roman numerals, as the case may be. 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 or |pages=x–xi.
    • You must also use |pageref= to specify the page number that the template should link to (usually the page on which the Wiktionary entry appears).
This parameter must be specified to have the template determine the name of the title quoted from, and to link to an online version of the work.
  • |3=, |text=, or |passage= – the passage to be quoted.
  • |footer= – a comment on the passage quoted.
  • |brackets= – use |brackets=on to 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.
