Usage edit

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from Lewis Carroll's work Sylvie and Bruno (1st edition, 1889–1893, 2 volumes). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at the Internet Archive:

Volume I (Sylvie and Bruno, 1889).
Volume II (Sylvie and Bruno Concluded, 1893).

Parameters edit

The template takes the following parameters:

|volume= – mandatory in some cases: the volume number quoted from, either |volume=I or |volume=II. If the parameter is omitted, the template defaults to volume I.
|1= or |chapter= – the name of the chapter quoted from.
|url= – if quoting from an unpaginated page of the work, use this parameter to manually specify the URL of the webpage that the template should link to: see the example below.
|2= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) quoted from. If quoting from the preface of either volume, specify the page number(s) in lowercase Roman numerals: see the example below. 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=110–111 or |pages=x–xi.
- 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 create an automatic link to the online version of the work.

|3=, |text=, or |passage= – a passage to be quoted from the work.
|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.
