|1=or|page=– mandatory: as the work is unpaginated, use this parameter to specify the "page number" assigned by the Internet Archive ("IA") to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL ishttps://archive.org/details/marlowejewofmalta/page/n10/mode/1up, specify|page=10. This parameter must be specified to have the template determine the act number (I–V) quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.|act=– mandatory in some cases: in most cases, if the page number is specified the template can determine the act number quoted from. However, it is unable to do so if page 44, 54, or 68 is specified, in which case this parameter must be used to specify the act number in uppercase Roman numerals, like this:|act=II.
| Act I IA pages 12–29 |
