• {{Quotation|Quoted material|Author|Title|}}

Quoted material

The equal sign (=)

If any of the parameters include an equal sign, this will make the template not recognize the parameter properly. To fix this the parameter needs to be prefixed with "1=", "2=", etc., depending on which parameter this applies to.
