Use only one of {{para|page}}, {{para|pages}}, or {{para|at}}.
* <b id="csdoc_page">page</b>: The number of a single page in the source that supports the content. Displays preceded by {{#if:{{{journal|}}}|colon ({{code|:}})|{{code|p.}} unless {{para|no-pp|yes}}{{#if: {{{work|}}}|&#32;or '''work''' (or an [[#csdoc_work|alias]]) is defined}}}}. If hyphenated, use {{tl|hyphen}} to indicate this is intentional (e.g. {{para|page|3{{tl|hyphen}}12}}), otherwise several editors and semi-automated tools will assume this was a misuse of the parameter to indicate a page range and will convert {{para|page|{{nat|3-12}}}} to {{para|pages|3{{tl|ndash}}12}}. Alias: '''p'''.
*OR: <b id="csdoc_pages">pages</b>: A range of pages in the source that supports the content{{#if:{{{journal|}}}|&#32;or the range of pages of the article as a whole, or both (using the following notation: ''article-page-range'' [''content-supporting-pages''], for example: pp. 4–10 [5, 7])|}}. Separate using an en dash (–); separate non-sequential pages with a comma (,); do not use to indicate the total number of pages in the source. Displays preceded by {{#if:{{{journal|}}}|colon ({{code|:}})|{{code|pp.}} unless {{para|no-pp|yes}}{{#if: {{{work|}}}|&#32;or '''work''' (or an [[#csdoc_work|alias]]) is defined}}}}. <br/>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 [[Help:Citation_Style_1#Accept-this-as-written_markup|double parentheses]] to tell the template to display the value of {{para|pages}} without processing it, and use {{tl|hyphen}} to indicate to editors that a hyphen is really intended: {{para|pages|((3{{tlf|hyphen}}1{{tlf|ndash}}3{{tlf|hyphen}}15))}}. Alternatively, use {{para|at}}, like this: {{para|at|pp. 3-1&amp;ndash;3-15}}. Alias: '''pp'''.{{#if:{{{journal|}}}||
**<b id="csdoc_nopp">no-pp</b>: Set to {{pval|yes}}, {{pval|y}}, or {{pval|true}} to suppress the {{code|p.}} or {{code|pp.}} notations where this is inappropriate; for example, where {{para|page|Front cover}} or {{para|pages|[[passim]]}}.}}
*OR: <b id="csdoc_at">at</b>: For sources where a page number is not available (such as in digital books), inappropriate or insufficient. This parameter accepts any text, but you are normally encouraged to use one out of section (sec.), column (col.), paragraph (para.); track; act, scene, canto, book, part, folio, stanza, back cover, liner notes, indicia, colophon, dust jacket, verse. For digital books that do not have pages, use the {{para|at}} parameter to provide information that would facilitate finding the referenced material in a digital format. For print books, for page (p.) or pages (pp.) ideally use {{para|page}} or {{para|pages}} possibly in conjunction with {{para|no-pp|yes}} instead. For hours, minutes and seconds ideally use {{para|minutes}} or {{para|time}} instead.
* For {{para|quote-page}} and {{para|quote-pages}} used in conjunction with {{para|quote}}, see [[#csdoc_quote|here]].
