}}

Where n signifies the option a user should pick for the dialogue option followed by the text verbatim of the in-game dialogue option. If the position of the chat option varies, use ? instead of a number. If any dialogue the user must select is unimportant, you may use "Any" in place of the number, shown above. When the "Accept Quest" screen appears, you should use "Accept", shown above.

The example below is a compact version, serving the same purpose as above - line breaks are not required. You may also use the singular {{Chat option}}, as it is a redirect.
