This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from Richard Baxter's work Universal Concord. The First Part. The Sufficient Terms Proposed for the Use of Those that Have Liberty to Use Them (1st edition, 1660); no other parts were published. 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 one of the chapters indicated in the second column of the following table, give the parameter the value indicated in the first column:

As the above chapters are unpaginated, use |1= or |page= to specify the "page number" assigned by the Internet Archive to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL is https://archive.org/details/universal00baxt/page/n8/mode/1up, specify |page=8.

• |subchapter= – mandatory in some cases:
  • If quoting from page 4 in the main part of the work, specify |subchapter=Ten Commandments or |subchapter=Lords Prayer as the case may be.
  • Otherwise, use this parameter to specify the name of the subchapter quoted from.
• |para= or |paragraph= – the paragraph number quoted from.
• |1= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory: the page number(s) quoted from. 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.
  • 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 determine the name of the chapter in the main part of the work quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.

• |sig= or |signature=, and |verso= – as the chapters entitled "To the Reader", "The Necessary Grounds, Ends and Principles of a Universal Concord ", and "The Order and Discipline of This Church, " are unpaginated, |sig= or |signature= can be used to specify the signature number quoted from, which is indicated at the bottom centre of some pages. If quoting from a verso (left-hand) page specify |verso=1 or |verso=yes; if |verso= is omitted, the template indicates that a recto (right-hand) page is quoted.
  • If a signature number is not indicated on a page, extrapolate it from the signature numbers before and after the page and enclose it in brackets using [ and ] For example, if the previous signature number is A3 and the next one is B, specify the missing signature number as |sig=[A4&93;: see the example below.
  • If quoting a range of signatures, for example, "signatures a, verso – a2, recto", use |sig= or |signature=, and |verso=, to specify the signature at the start of the range, and |sigend= or |signatureend=, and |versoend=, (if required) to specify the signature at the end of the range.
  • If this parameter is omitted, the template links the URL of the online version of the work to the chapter name if one is specified.
• |2=, |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.
