Must be prefixed with one of the supported language codes to help browsers properly display the script:
      ... |title=Tōkyō tawā |script-title=ja:東京タワー |trans-title=Tokyo Tower ...
    • trans-title: English translation of the title if the source cited is in a foreign language. Displays in square brackets after {{#switch:{{{title_title}}}

Some identifiers (specifying free resources) will automatically be linked to the title when |{{SAFESUBST:#if:url|url=}} and |{{SAFESUBST:#if:title-link|title-link=}} are not used to specify a different link target. This behaviour can be overridden by one out of a number of special keywords for |{{SAFESUBST:#if:title-link|title-link=}} to manually select a specific source (|{{SAFESUBST:#if:title-link|title-link=}}pmc or |{{SAFESUBST:#if:title-link|title-link=}}doi) for auto-linking or to disable the feature (|{{SAFESUBST:#if:title-link|title-link=}}none).}}
