Usage edit

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote from Thomas Hardy's work The Mayor of Casterbridge (1st collected edition, 1886, 2 volumes; and 1968 version); the 1968 version contains text that had been omitted from the 1st collected edition and other changes (see the "Author's Preface"). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at the Internet Archive:

Parameters edit

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |year= – mandatory in some cases: if quoting from the 1968 version, specify |year=1968.
  • |1= or |volume= – mandatory in some cases: if quoting from the 1st collected edition (1886), the volume number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, either |volume=I or |volume=II.
  • |2= or |chapter= – if quoting from the 1st collected edition, the chapter number in uppercase Roman numerals; and if quoting from the 1968 version, in Arabic numerals.
  • |3= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) quoted from. 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=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 link to the 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.
