Usage

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from Ben Jonson's work Catiline His Conspiracy (1st edition, 1611). It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at the Internet Archive.

Parameters

The template takes the following parameters:

• |chapter= – if quoting from one of the chapters indicated in the second column of the following table, give the parameter the value indicated in the first column:

Parameter value	Result
Beaumont	To My Friend Mr. Ben: Jonson, vpon his Catiline (by Francis Beaumont)
Dedication	To the Great Example of Honor, and Vertue, the Most Noble William Earle of Penbrooke, &c.
Field	To His Worthy Beloued Friend Mr. Ben. Ionson (by Nathan Field)
Fletcher	To His Worthy Friend Mr. Ben: Ionson (by John Fletcher)
To the Reader Extraordinary	To the Reader Extraordinary
To the Reader in Ordinarie	To the Reader in Ordinarie

• |1= or |page= – mandatory: as the work is unpaginated, use this parameter to specify the "page number" assigned by the Internet Archive ("IA") to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL is https://archive.org/details/catilinehisconsp00jons_1/page/n16/mode/1up, specify |page=16. This parameter must be specified to have the template determine the act number (I–V) quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work. (In addition, apart from the dedication and Fletcher's dedicatory poem, the template is able to determine the URL of the chapters mentioned above.)
• |act= – mandatory in some cases: in most cases, if the page number is specified the template is able to determine the act number quoted from. However, it is unable to do so if page 33 is specified, in which case this parameter must be used to specify the act number in uppercase Roman numerals, like this: |act=I.

Act I IA pages 16–33

Act II IA pages 33–44

Act III IA pages 45–70

Act IV IA pages 71–96

Act V IA pages 97–117

• |sig= or |signature=, and |verso= – |sig= or |signature= can be used to specify the signature number quoted from, which is indicated at the bottom centre of some pages. If quoting from a verso (left-hand) page specify |verso=1 or |verso=yes; if |verso= is omitted, the template indicates that a recto (right-hand) page is quoted.
  • If a signature number is not indicated on a page, extrapolate it from the signature numbers before and after the page and enclose it in brackets using [ and ] For example, if the previous signature number is A3 and the next one is B, specify the missing signature number as |sig=[A4].
  • If quoting a range of signatures, for example, "signatures B, verso – B2, recto", use |sig= or |signature=, and |verso=, to specify the signature at the start of the range, and |sigend= or |signatureend=, and |versoend=, (if required) to specify the signature at the end of the range.
  • If this parameter is omitted, the template either links the URL of the online version of the work to the chapter name if one is specified, or to the act number.
• |2=, |text=, or |passage= – the passage to be quoted.
• |footer= – a comment about 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.
