This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote Henry James's work The Aspern Papers; Louisa Pallant; The Modern Warning (1st edition, 1888), which comprises three novellas published together. 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:

• |title= – if quoting from Louisa Pallant or The Modern Warning, the title of the work quoted from. This parameter may be omitted if the page number is specified.
• |1= or |chapter= – the chapter number of the novella quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals. The chapter number restarts from I in each of the three novellas.
• |2= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory: 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=110–111.
  • 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).

This parameter must be specified to have the template determine the novella quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.

• |3=, |text=, or |passage= – a passage quoted from the book.
• |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.
