Parameters

edit

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |1= or |volume= – mandatory: the volume number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, from |volume=I to |volume=XIV.
  • |2= or |chapter=, and/or |chaptername= –
    • If specifying the page number causes the template to indicate the title quoted from, use |2= or |chapter= to specify the chapter number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, and/or |chaptername= to specify the name of the chapter.
    • Otherwise, use |2= or |chapter= to specify the title quoted from.
  • |letter= – if quoting from "Letters to a Young Man whose Education has been Neglected" in volume XIV, the letter number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals.
  • |subchapter= – the name of the subchapter quoted from, if any.
  • |section= – a section number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, followed by the name of the section in parentheses.
  • |3= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory: the page number(s) quoted from in Arabic or lowercase Roman numerals, as the case may be. If quoting a range of pages, note the following:
    • Separate the first and last page number of the range with an en dash, like this: |pages=10–11 or |pages=x–xi.
    • You must also use |pageref= to indicate the page to be linked to (usually the page on which the Wiktionary entry appears).
This parameter must be specified to have the template determine the name of the chapter quoted from in some cases, and to link to an online version of the work.
  • |4=, |text=, or |passage= – the passage to be quoted.
  • |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.
