The template takes the following parameters:

• |1= or |volume= – mandatory: the volume number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, either |volume=I or |volume=II.
• |2= or |title= – mandatory: the title of the novella quoted from, as indicated in the first column of the following table:

Parameter value	Result	Title page
Volume I
Love among the Haystacks	Love among the Haystacks (1930)	title page
The Ladybird	The Ladybird (March 1923)	title page
The Fox	The Fox (1922)	title page

The Virgin and the Gypsy	The Virgin and the Gypsy (written 1926; published 1930)	title page
The Man who Died	The Man who Died (written 19271928; published September 1929 as The Escaped Cock)	title page

• |chapter= – if a novella is divided into chapters, the chapter number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals.
• |3= 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 the online version of the work.

The page number starts from 1 in each novella.

• |4=, |text=, or |passage= – the passage to be quoted.
• |footer= – a comment on the passage quoted.
• |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.
