|-
| '''shorttitle'''
| Required
| The short title of the act, usually found in the first section of the act. Include year of enactment only if the date is part of the short title. If an act has multiple short titles, include only one short title here; specifically, usually include here only the first short title that is given in the act, unless common usage of a different short title dictates otherwise.
| rowspan="3" | plain text
|-
| '''othershorttitles'''
| Optional
| If the act has more than one short title, list all other short titles here. Include acronyms only if the acronym itself is given in the bill as a short title; otherwise, list the acronym in the "colloquial acronym" component.
|-
| '''longtitle'''
| Required
| The long title of the act. It is prefaced before the enumerated provisions contained in the act. For example, the long title for the Civil Rights Act of 1866 is "''An Act to protect all Persons in the United States in their Civil Rights, and furnish the Means of their Vindication."''
|-
| '''colloquialacronym'''
| Optional
| If applicable, an abbreviated designation of the act's short title(s). For example, the Voting Rights Act of 1965 is often represented by the acronym VRA. However, if an acronym is listed in the bill as alternative short title, do NOT put the acronym here; instead, list in the "othershorttitles" field.
|-
| '''nickname'''
| Optional
| Commonly used nickname(s) for the act (other than colloquial acronyms).
|-
| '''enacted by'''
| Required
| The numerical designation of the Congress that passed the bill. For example, 1st, 10th, or 100th. The numerical designation will auto-link to corresponding wiki link page for that Congress. Adding other characters beyond the example before stated will break the link.
| number and plain text

| '''effective date'''
| Optional, desirable
| The date the act will start to be the law. This is NOT the same as the date the bill was signed into law.
