The following example:

{{quote-av|en|writer={{w|Cameron Crowe}}|actor={{w|Jay Mohr}}|role=Bob Sugar|title={{w|Jerry Maguire}}|location=Culver City, Calif.|publisher={{w|TriStar Pictures}}; distributed by [[w:Sony Pictures Home Entertainment|Columbia TriStar Home Video]]|year=1996|year_published=1997|isbn=978-0-8001-4174-5|text=It's also my job to take care of the '''skanks''' on the road that you bang.}}

1996, Cameron Crowe, Jerry Maguire, spoken by Bob Sugar (Jay Mohr), Culver City, Calif.: TriStar Pictures; distributed by Columbia TriStar Home Video, published 1997, →ISBN:

It's also my job to take care of the skanks on the road that you bang.

As there are no specific parameters for quoting multiple lines of a conversation, it is suggested that these be written in the following form, using / as a line separator:

|text=role A (actor A): first line / role B (actor B): second line...

Parameters

All parameters are optional except those marked "Mandatory", and may contain inline interwikis or external links as needed.

Parameter	Remarks
`1`	A comma-separated list of language codes indicating the language(s) of the quoted text; for a list of the codes, see Wiktionary:List of languages. If the language is other than English, the template will indicate this fact by displaying "(in [language])" (for one language), or "(in [language] and [language])" (for two languages), or "(in [language], [language] ... and [language])" (for three or more languages). The entry page will also be added to a category in the form "Category:[Language] terms with quotations" for the first listed language (unless `termlang` is specified, in which case that language is used for the category, or `nocat` is specified, in which case the page will not be added to any category). The first listed language also determines the font to use and the appropriate transliteration to display, if the text is in a non-Latin script. Use `\|worklang=` to specify the language(s) that the overall recording is in: see below.
`author` and `authorlink`, or `writer` or `writers`	The author or writer(s) of the episode or program quoted. The parameter `\|authorlink=` can be used to link to an English Wikipedia article about the author.
`director` or `directors`	The director(s) of the episode or program quoted.
`actor`	The actor quoted.
`role` or `roles` or `speaker`	The role played by the actor; or, the person (in a non-acting role) speaking.
`episode`	The title of the episode quoted. If specifying an episode number only, use `number`.
`trans-episode`	If the title of the episode is not in English, this parameter can be used to provide an English translation of the title.
`title`	Mandatory: the title of the recording.
`trans-title`	If the title of the recording is not in English, this parameter can be used to provide an English translation of the title.
`url`	The URL or web address of the recording. Do not link to any webpage that has content in breach of copyright.
`archiveurl` and `archivedate` or `accessdate`	Use `archiveurl` and `archivedate` (which must be used together) to indicate the URL or web address of a webpage on a website such as the Internet Archive or Perma.cc at which the webpage has been archived, and the date on which the webpage was archived. Alternatively, if the webpage cannot be archived, use `accessdate` to indicate when its URL was accessed.
`format`	The format of the recording, for example, "`Betamax`" or "`VHS`" (which are videotape formats).
`medium`	The medium of the recording, for example, "`Blu-ray`", "`CD`", "`DVD`", "`motion picture`", "`podcast`", "`television production`" or "`videotape`".
`season` and `number`	The season or series number and episode number of the episode of the program quoted. For example, if quoting from season 3, episode 1, type "`season=3` and "`number=1`". Use `episode` to specify the name of the episode.
`network`	The television network or radio network on which the recording is broadcast.
`location`	The location(s) where the recording was published. If more than one location is stated, separate the locations with semicolons, like this: "`London; New York, N.Y.`".
`publisher`	The name of one or more publishers of the recording. If more than one publisher is stated, separate the names with semicolons.
`date` or `year` (and `month`)	Mandatory: the date, or year (and month), that the recording was published. Use either `date`, or `year` (and `month`), not both.
`year_published`	If you use `date` or `year` to indicate when the recording was originally released (for example, in cinemas), `year_published` can be used to indicate a subsequent publication (for example, on DVD).
`isbn`, `oclc` or `id`	The International Standard Book Number (ISBN) or Online Computer Library Center (OCLC) number (which can be looked up at the WorldCat website) of the recording. Use `id` for an identifier other than the ones listed above.
`time`	The time in hours, minutes and seconds from the start of the recording at which the quoted text occurs. For example, if the quoted text appears 1 hour, 30 minutes and 6 seconds into the recording, type "`time=1:30:06`".
`at`	Use this parameter to identify where in the recording the quoted text occurs other than by specifying the time from the start of the recording. For example, the parameter can be used to indicate that the text occurs in a particular act and scene of a play.
`text` or `passage`	The portion of the recording being quoted. Highlight the term defined in bold in the quoted text like this: "`'''Thalia'''`".
`worklang`	A comma-separated list of language codes indicating the language(s) that the overall recording is written in, if different from the quoted text; for a list of the codes, see Wiktionary:List of languages.
`termlang`	A language code indicating the language of the term being illustrated, if different from the quoted text; for a list of the codes, see Wiktionary:List of languages. If specified, this language is the one used when adding the page to a category of the form "Category:[Language] terms with quotations"; otherwise, the first listed language specified using `1` is used. Only specify this parameter if the language of the quotation is different from the term's language, e.g. a Middle English quotation used to illustrate a modern English term or an English definition of a Vietnamese term in a Vietnamese-English dictionary.
`nocat`	Use `nocat=y` or `nocat=1` or `nocat=on` to suppress adding the page to a category of the form "Category:[Language] terms with quotations". This should not normally be done.
`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.
`t` or `translation`	If the quoted text is not in English, this parameter can be used to provide an English translation of it.
`lit`	If the quoted text is not in English and the translation supplied using `t` or `translation` is idiomatic, this parameter can be used to provide a literal English translation.
`footer`	This parameter can be used to specify arbitrary text to insert in a separate line at the bottom, to specify a comment, footnote, etc.
`tr` or `transliteration`	If the quoted text uses a different writing system from the Latin alphabet (the usual alphabet used in English), this parameter can be used to provide a transliteration of it into the Latin alphabet. Note that many languages provide an automatic transliteration if this argument is not specified.
`subst`	Phonetic substitutions to be applied to handle irregular transliterations in certain languages with a non-Latin writing system and automatic transliteration (e.g. Russian and Yiddish). If specified, should be one or more substitution expressions separated by commas, where each substitution expression is of the form `FROM//TO` (`FROM/TO` is also accepted), where `FROM` specifies the source text in the source script (e.g. Cyrillic or Hebrew) and `TO` is the corresponding replacement text, also in the source script. The intent is to respell irregularly-pronounced words phonetically prior to transliteration, so that the transliteration reflects the pronunciation rather than the spelling. The substitutions are applied in order. Note that Lua patterns can be used in `FROM` and `TO` in lieu of literal text; see WT:LUA. See also `{{ux}}` for an example of using `subst` (the usage is identical to that template).
