|section=– some poems in the work are subdivided into parts. To avoid confusion with the two parts (part I and II) that the whole work is divided into, use this parameter to specify these parts of poems as "sections" in uppercase Roman numerals.|stanza=or|verse=– the hymns and poems in the work are further subdivided into stanzas or verses. Use these parameters to specify the stanza or verse number quoted from in Arabic numerals.|2=or|page=, or|pages=– mandatory: the page number(s) quoted from in Arabic or lowercase Roman numerals, as the case may be. 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=10–11or|pages=iii–iv. - You must also use
|pageref=to indicate the page to be linked to (usually the page on which the Wiktionary entry appears).

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.
