* mode: Sets element separator, default terminal punctuation, and certain capitalization according to the value provided. For {{para|mode|cs1}}, element separator and terminal punctuation is a period (<code>.</code>); where appropriate, initial letters of certain words are capitalized ('Retrieved...'). For {{para|mode|cs2}}, element separator is a comma (<code>,</code>); terminal punctuation is omitted; where appropriate, initial letters of certain words are not capitalized ('retrieved...'). To override default terminal punctuation use '''postscript'''.

*: Controls the number of author or ~~editor~~ names that are displayed ~~when a citation is published~~. To change the displayed number of names, set ~~'''display-authors''' and/or '''display-editors'''~~ to the desired number. For example, {{para|display-authors|2}} will display only the first two authors in a citation (and not affect the display of ~~editors). Likewise, {{para|display-editors|2}} will display only~~ the ~~first two editors (and all authors~~). {{para|display-authors|0}} ~~and {{para|display-editors|0}} are~~ special ~~cases~~ suppressing the display of all authors ~~or editors~~ including the et al~~. By default, all authors and editors are displayed~~. {{para|display-authors|etal}} displays all authors in the list followed by et al. Aliases: none.

*: Controls the number of author (or other kind of contributor) names that are displayed. By default, all authors are displayed. To change the displayed number of names, set the parameter to the desired number. For example, {{para|display-authors|2}} will display only the first two authors in a citation (and not affect the display of the other kinds of contributors). {{para|display-authors|0}} is a special case suppressing the display of all authors including the et al. {{para|display-authors|etal}} displays all authors in the list followed by et al. Aliases: none.

* postscript: Controls the closing punctuation for a citation; defaults to {{#if: {{{cs2|}}}|none|a period (<code>.</code>); for no terminating punctuation, specify {{para|postscript|none}} – leaving {{para|postscript}} empty is the same as omitting it, but is ambiguous}}. Additional text, or templates that render more than a single terminating punctuation character, will generate a maintenance message. {{para|postscript}} is ignored if '''quote''' is defined.
