;{{Para|reason}}
:Because it may not be immediately apparent to other readers and / or editors what the specific reason the tagged passage is in need of examples, it is generally helpful to add a brief reason for the tag: <code><nowiki>{{Example needed|reason=</nowiki><var>What the problem is</var><nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> (this is preferable to using an HTML <code>&lt;!-- comment --&gt;</code> after the tag, as it is tidier to keep all of the {{Tlx|Example needed}}-related code inside the template). If the request reason would be lengthy, use the article's talk page to address the issue in detail.
:As well as being visible in the source code for readers and editors' benefit, the <code>reason</code> parameter is, if provided, displayed as a pop-up when the mouse is hovered over the 'clarificationexample needed' link in the article.<!-- For technical reasons, this mouse-over pop-up feature does not work if the reason text contains double quotes. Use single quotes instead, or use the code <code>&amp;quot;</code> if it is essential to include a double quote. (Seems to no longer be a problem, since ca. 2015)-->

::Examples follow:
:#<code><nowiki>{{Example needed|pre-text=reference or}}</nowiki></code>
:#:will cause the text 'remove or' to appear <u>before</u> 'clarificationexample needed' like this:{{Example needed|pre-text=reference or}}
:#<code><nowiki>{{ClarifyExample needed|post-text=(complicated jargonobscure)}}</nowiki></code>
:#:will cause '(obscure)' to appear <u>after</u> 'clarificationexample needed' like this:{{Example needed|post-text=(obscure)}}
:#<code><nowiki>{{Example needed|post-text=(see [[Talk:Example#Example needed|talk]])}}</nowiki></code>
:#:can be used to link to a discussion on the article's [[talk page]]; this example produces:{{Example needed|post-text=(see [[Talk:Example#Example needed|talk]])}}
