- ref – full catalogue reference, including series. This will usually be WO 95 but can also be WO 154. You can refer to a single item, a single piece, or a sub-series covering a range of pieces, as long as there is a Discovery URL for the reference. Examples:
- WO 95/2691/2
- WO 95/2686
- WO 95/2662-2695
- WO 154/59
- url – full URL of a Discovery resource corresponding to the catalogue reference. For example: http://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/C1787810
- start_date – earliest date covered by the diaries with the specified catalogue reference.

This template can be used more than once on the same page if the unit has diaries under several different references. It automatically adds Category:Units with official war diaries.
