  • |stanza= – the stanza number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals.
  • |2= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) quoted from. When quoting a range of pages, note the following:
    • Separate the first and last pages of the range with an en dash, like this: |pages=10–11.
    • You must also use |pageref= to specify the page number that the template should link to (usually the page on which the Wiktionary entry appears).
You must specify this information to have the template link to an online version of the work.
  • |3=, |text=, or |passage= – the passage to be quoted.
  • |footer= – a comment on the passage quoted.
  • |4=, |t=, or |translation= – a translation of the passage into contemporary English.
  • |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.
  • |lang= and |termlang= – the work contains poems in English and Scots. By default, the template categorizes entries on which it is placed into Category:English terms with quotations. To have the template categorize an entry into Category:Scots terms with quotations instead, specify |lang=sco. If quoting a Scots poem in an English entry specify |lang=sco and |termlang=en, and it is recommended that you add |brackets=on as well.
