Usage

edit

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from John Denham's work The Sophy (2nd edition, 1667); the 1st edition (London: [] Richard Hearne for Thomas Walkley [], 1642; →OCLC) is not currently available online. It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at Google Books (archived at the Internet Archive).

Parameters

edit

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |chapter= – if quoting from the prologue or epilogue, specify |chapter=Prologue or |chapter=Epilogue. Although those chapters are unpaginated, the template will automatically link to the appropriate webpage.
  • |act=mandatory in some cases: in most cases the template will determine the act number quoted from, as shown below. However, if page 70 is quoted from, the act number must be manually specified in uppercase Roman numerals, like this: |act=IV or |act=V.
Act I
(pages 1–14)
Act II
(pages 15–28)
Act III
(pages 29–43A)
Act IV
(page 44A–70)
Act V
(pages 70–97)
  • |1= or |page=, or |pages=mandatory: the page or range of pages quoted from. If quoting a range of pages, note the following:
    • Separate the first and last page numbers of the range with an en dash, like this: |pages=10–11.
    • 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 act number quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.

The page numbers 43 and 44 are repeated, though the text is correct. When quoting from the second set of page numbers, specify pages 43A and 44A instead.

  • |2=, |text=, or |passage= – the passage to be 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.
