Used to add notes to quotes which are written in the same language as the original quote, and which could theoretically have been provided in the original source without coming across as out of place. Can also be used to give out full forms of names in quote metadata, e.g. full names of authors (when only initials are provided in the original source).
Such notes are often clarifications providing additional context to a quote, such as the person a personal pronoun is referring to, or other similar details.
For adding other kinds of clarifications or clarifications in English to (original or normalized passages of) non-English quotes, use {{quote-qualifier}}.
Only supports a single parameter, which are the contents of the note.
