Usage edit

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote John Foxe's work Actes and Monuments of These Latter and Perillous Dayes, commonly known as Foxe's Book of Martyrs (1st edition, 1563; and 6th edition, 1610, 2 volumes); the print version of the 1st edition is not currently available online. It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at Google Books and John Foxe's The Acts and Monuments Online (by the University of Sheffield's Digital Humanities Institute):

Parameters edit

The template takes the following parameters:

1st edition (1563)
  • |2= or |page=, or |pages=mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) quoted from. When quoting a range of pages, note the following:
    • Separate the first and last pages of the range with an en dash, like this: |pages=10–11.
    • You must also use |pageref= to specify the page number that the template should link to (usually the page on which the Wiktionary entry appears).
You must specify this information to have the template determine the book number quoted from, and to link to an online version of the work.

For each page of the work, the John Foxe's The Acts and Monuments Online website indicates both a modernized page number, and Foxe's original page number in brackets. Use |2= or |page=, or |pages=, to specify the modernized page number; and, if desired, |origpage= or |origpages= to indicate the original page number(s).

6th edition (1610)
  • |edition=mandatory: if quoting from this edition, specify |edition=6th.
  • |volume=mandatory: the volume number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, either |volume=I or |volume=II.
  • |url= – if quoting from an unpaginated page, use this parameter to specify the URL of the webpage that the template should link to, like this: |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=5Rgq7bGvihUC&pg=PP15. The URL will be linked to the chapter name.
  • |2= or |page=, or |pages=mandatory in some cases: if quoting from a paginated page, the page number(s) quoted from. When quoting a range of pages, note the following:
    • Separate the first and last pages of the range with an en dash, like this: |pages=10–11.
    • You must also use |pageref= to specify the page number that the template should link to (usually the page on which the Wiktionary entry appears).
You must specify this information to have the template determine the book number quoted from, and to link to an online version of the work.
  • |column= or |columns= – the column number quoted from in Arabic numerals, either |column=1 or |column=2. If quoting from both columns, either omit this parameter or separate the column numbers with an en dash, like this: |columns=1–2.
Both editions
  • |author= – the name of an author of a chapter or other part of the work which is not by Foxe; the name may be marked up using Wikitext.
  • |1= or |chapter= – the name of the chapter quoted from.
  • |date=, or (|month= and) |year= – if the date of a chapter or other part of the work quoted from is known, use |date= to specify it in the format 1 January 1500 or January 1, 1500. The date will be converted from the Julian to the Gregorian calendar. If only month and year, or year alone, of the sermon is known, use |month= and |year= to specify this information.
  • |section= – a section of the work quoted from.
  • |3=, |text=, or |passage= – a passage quoted from the work.
  • |footer= – a comment on the passage quoted.
  • |brackets= – use |brackets=on to surround a quotation with brackets. This indicates that the quotation either contains a mere mention of a term (for example, "some people find the word manoeuvre hard to spell") rather than an actual use of it (for example, "we need to manoeuvre carefully to avoid causing upset"), or does not provide an actual instance of a term but provides information about related terms.
