Parameters:

• author: in case of a book or document, the main author, in "Lastname, Firstname" format. In case of a magazine, if the "section" parameter is used, then the author should be the article or column author; otherwise, it can be omitted. No link is automatically added to the author's article, if one exists, so it should be manually included. If the book has a real and in-game author, the most known of them should be used.
• moreAuthors: optional, "true" if the book has more authors, "false" or omitting this parameter means the book has only one author.
• title: book, magazine, or document title. The template will automatically add a link to its article, or if it is an in-game book and it has no article, to Ultima Codex:Research tips and resources#Texts. If none of the above (no article or not an in-game book), no link will be added, unless the "docLink" parameter is provided.
• docLink: optional, ONLY for books which don't have an article and are NOT in-game, but which are referenced elsewhere in the web (usually documents). Should be an HTTP link.
• titleU: optional. This is an alternative to using the title parameter. It does no automatic formatting and no linking. The user should provide any formatting and linking necessary. If using this, do not use the docLink parameter either.
• section: optional, book/document section or chapter; or magazine article or section name.
• game: optional, only if the book is included with an Ultima game; if so, the name of the Ultima game (the link to its article will be added automatically).
• gameU: optional. As an alternative to game and all its automatic formatting, use this and provide whatever formatting and linking are necessary
• in-game: optional, "true" if the book/document exists only inside a game, "false" or omitting this parameter means the book/document exists outside the games.
• publisher: optional, the book/document/magazine publisher.
• year: optional, the year the book/magazine/document was published.
• month: optional, the month the magazine/document was published.
• day: optional, the day the document was published/created.
• page: optional, a page number, IF there is only one page referenced. Otherwise, use "pages".
• pages: optional, a page range separated by a hyphen (e.g., 15-20, 3-4).
