To include a shortcut (or shortcuts), pass a parameter: {{Guideline|WP:SHORT}}
To add a sort key to a guideline, add the parameter: {{Guideline|Sortkey=<sort key name>}}.
Up to five shortcuts can be used, with or without a sortkey: {{Guideline|WP:SHORT|WP:SHORT2|WP:SHORT3|WP:SHORT4|WP:SHORT5|Sortkey=<sort key name>}}.
