Usage

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote from a collection of Thomas Hobbes' works entitled The English Works of Thomas Hobbes of Malmesbury (1st edition, 1839–1845, 11 volumes) edited by William Molesworth. It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at Google Books and the Internet Archive:

Volume I (contents;
archived at the Internet Archive).
Volume II (contents).
Volume III (contents).

Where a specific quotation template exists (for example, {{RQ:Hobbes Leviathan}}), use it instead of this template.

Parameters

The template takes the following parameters:

|1= or |volume= – mandatory: the volume number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, from |volume=I to |volume=XI.
|2= or |title= – mandatory in some cases: the name of the title quoted from. In some cases, if the page number is specified the template can determine the title. If quoting from one of the titles indicated in the second column of the following table, give the parameter the value indicated in the first column, if any:

The English Works of Thomas Hobbes of Malmesbury

`Dedication`	To George Grote, Esq. M.P. for the City of London (written 25 February 1839)	page iii

For help with adding other titles or their publication dates to the template, leave a message on the talk page or at "Wiktionary:Grease pit".

|chapter= and/or |chaptername= – if a title is divided into chapters, use |chapter= to specify the chapter number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, and/or |chaptername= the name of the chapter.
|date=, or (|month= and) |year= – if quoting from a title that is separately dated (such as a letter), use |date= to specify it in the format 31 October 1634 or October 31, 1634. The date will be converted from the Julian to the Gregorian calendar. If only the month and year, or year alone, of the sermon is known, use |month= and/or |year= to specify this information.
|section= – the name of a section and section number quoted from, for example, |section=part I.
|3= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) quoted from in Arabic or lowercase Roman numerals, as the case may be. 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 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).

This parameter must be specified to have the template determine, in some cases, the title and/or part thereof quoted from, 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.
