|chapter=To the Reader
. As it is unpaginated, use |2=
or |page=
to specify the "page number" assigned by Google Books to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL is https://books.google.com/books?id=EC5mAAAAcAAJ&pg=PP9
, specify |page=9
.
- In other cases, use this parameter to specify the chapter number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals.
|2=
or |page=
, or |pages=
– mandatory in some cases: 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=

|3=
, |text=
, or |passage=
– the passage to be quoted.
|footer=

|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.
