If quoting a range of line numbers, separate the first and last numbers of the range with an en dash, like this:|lines=10–11.|2=or|page=, or|pages=– mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) quoted from.

|3=,|text=, or|passage=– the passage to be quoted.|footer=– a comment on the passage quoted.|brackets=– use|brackets=onto 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.
