Usage edit

This template is used in the Further Reading or References section of a Wiktionary entry to link to a Wikisource article. It works identically to {{R:wp}} other than linking to Wikisource instead of Wikipedia.

Parameters edit

|1=: Language code of the language-specific version of Wikisource to link to. Defaults to en for the English Wikisource. NOTE: This is a Wikimedia language code, not a Wiktionary language code. See discussion below.
|2=: Wikisource page to link to. Defaults to the current page title.
|3=: Text to display when linking to Wikisource. Defaults to |2=.
|sc=: Wiktionary script code of the link in |2= (or of the display text in |3=, if provided). This is used when displaying the link to the page on Wikisource. You rarely need to specify this, as it is autodetected. NOTE: This is a Wiktionary script code.
|i=1: Italicize the displayed link.
|nodot=1: Suppress the final dot (period/full stop) that is displayed by default.

Language codes edit

Parameter |1= specifies the version of Wikisource to link to. This is a Wikimedia language code, not a Wiktionary language code. The two sets of language codes are similar, but there are some critical differences. For example, Wiktionary has a single language code sh for Serbo-Croatian, and no language codes for national variants of Serbo-Croatian (Serbian, Croatian, Bosnian, Montenegrin). Wikimedia, however, has both a Serbo-Croatian language code sh and national-language variant codes for Serbian (sr), Croatian (hr) and Bosnian (bs). In addition, sometimes the same language has different codes in Wiktionary vs. Wikimedia; for example, Cantonese uses yue in Wiktionary but zh-yue in Wikimedia, and Tarantino uses roa-tar in Wiktionary but roa-tara in Wikimedia.
