– the chapter number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals.|2=
or|page=
, or|pages=

|pages=110–111
. - You must also use

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.
