Usage

This template may be used in "References" and "Further reading" sections, and on talk pages, to provide a citation to the American version of the Macmillan English Dictionary website.

It is equivalent to using {{R:Macmillan}} with the |lang=US parameter.

Parameters

• |1= or |entry= – the name of the entry on the website. If this parameter is not stated, the name of the Wiktionary entry is used.
• |2= or |url= – if the default URL is not linking to the correct webpage in the American version of the Dictionary, use this parameter to indicate the URL of the webpage to be linked to.
• |3=, |text=, or |passage= – a passage quoted from the website.
• |nodot= – by default, the template adds a full stop (period) at the end of the citation. To suppress this punctuation, use |nodot=1 or |nodot=yes.

Examples

• Wikitext:
  • {{R:MacmillanUS}} (assuming the template is used on the fight like cats and dogs page); or
  • {{R:MacmillanUS|entry=fight like cats and dogs}}; or
  • {{R:MacmillanUS|fight like cats and dogs}}
• Result: “fight like cats and dogs” (US) in Macmillan English Dictionary.
