This template may be used in "References" and "Further reading" sections of Wiktionary entries, and on talk pages, to provide a citation to Bill Griffiths's work A Dictionary of North East Dialect (1st edition, 2004). It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at the Internet Archive.

The template takes the following parameters:

• |chapter= – if quoting from a chapter other than the main text such as the historical introduction, the name of the chapter.
• |1= or |entry= – the entry cited. If the parameter is not specified, the template uses the name of the Wiktionary entry.
• |2= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) quoted from in Arabic or lowercase Roman numerals, as the case may be. If quoting a range of pages, note the following:
  • Separate the first and last page number of the range with an en dash, like this: |pages=10–11 or |pages=x–xi.
  • You must also use |pageref= to indicate the page to be linked to (usually the page on which the Wiktionary entry appears).

This parameter must be specified to have the template link to the online version of the work.

• |column= or |columns= – the column number(s) quoted from, either |column=1 or |column=2. If quoting from both columns, either omit this parameter or separate the column numbers with an en dash, like this: |columns=1–2.
• |3=, |text=, or |passage= – the passage to be quoted.
• |nodot= – by default, the template adds a full stop (period) at the end of the citation. To suppress this punctuation, use |nodot=1 or |nodot=yes.

• Wikitext:
  • {{R:North East Dialect|page=96|column=1|passage=young woman, sweetheart, wife}} (assuming the template is used in the Wiktionary entry lass); or
  • {{R:North East Dialect|entry=lass|page=96|column=1|passage=young woman, sweetheart, wife}}; or
  • {{R:North East Dialect|lass|96|column=1|young woman, sweetheart, wife}}
