- quote: Relevant text quoted from the source. Displays enclosed in quotes. When supplied, the citation terminator (a period by default) is suppressed, so the quote must include terminating punctuation. If script-quote is defined, use quote to hold a Romanization (if available) of the text in script-quote. When quoting a copyrighted text, only brief quotations to attribute a point of view or idea are permitted; extensive quotations are prohibited.
- script-quote: Original quotation for languages that do not use a Latin-based script (Arabic, Chinese, Cyrillic, Greek, Hebrew, Japanese, Korean, etc.); not italicized, follows italicized Romanization defined in quote (if available). Alias: none. Must be prefixed with one of the supported language codes to help browsers properly display the script:
... |quote=Tōkyō tawā |script-quote=ja:東京タワー |trans-quote=Tokyo Tower ...
- trans-quote: English translation of the quotation if the source quoted is in a foreign language. Displays in square brackets. Alias: none.
- script-quote: Original quotation for languages that do not use a Latin-based script (Arabic, Chinese, Cyrillic, Greek, Hebrew, Japanese, Korean, etc.); not italicized, follows italicized Romanization defined in quote (if available). Alias: none. Must be prefixed with one of the supported language codes to help browsers properly display the script:
- quote-page: The number of a single page quoted in <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />
|quote=. Use either <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|quote-page=or <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|quote-pages=, but not both. Should be a subset of the page(s) specified in <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|page=, <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|pages=or <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|at=. Displays preceded by <syntaxhighlight lang="text" class="" style="" inline="1">p.</syntaxhighlight> unless <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|no-pp=yes. If hyphenated, use {{hyphen}} to indicate this is intentional (e.g. <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|quote-page=3{{hyphen}}12). Alias: none. - OR: quote-pages: A list or range of pages quoted in <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />
|quote=. Use either <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|quote-page=or <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|quote-pages=, but not both. Should be a subset of the pages specified in <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|pages=or <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|at=. Separate using an en dash (–); separate non-sequential pages with a comma (,). Displays preceded by <syntaxhighlight lang="text" class="" style="" inline="1">pp.</syntaxhighlight> unless <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|no-pp=yesis defined. Hyphens are automatically converted to en dashes; if hyphens are appropriate because individual page numbers contain hyphens, for example: pp. 3-1–3-15, use double parentheses to tell the template to display the value of <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|quote-pages=without processing it, and use {{hyphen}} to indicate to editors that a hyphen is really intended: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|quote-pages=((3{{hyphen}}1{{ndash}}3{{hyphen}}15)). Alias: none.
