Usage
editThis template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from works by Benedetto Castelli, Galileo Galilei, and others translated into English by Thomas Salusbury and collected in Mathematical Collections and Translations (1st edition, 1661–1665, 2 tomes). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at the Internet Archive:
Parameters
editThe template takes the following parameters:
|1=
,|tome=
, or|volume=
– mandatory: the tome or volume number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, either|tome=I
or|tome=II
.|2=
or|part=
– mandatory: the part number quoted from in Arabic numerals, either|part=1
or|part=2
.|chapter=
– if quoting from one of the chapters indicated in the second column of the following table, give the parameter the value indicated in the first column:
Parameter value | Result |
---|---|
Tome I | |
1st part | |

- As the above chapters are unpaginated, use
|3=
or|page=
to specify the "page number" assigned by the Internet Archive to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL ishttps://archive.org/details/den-kbd-pil-20001072-001/page/n13/mode/1up
, specify|page=13
.
|3=
or|page=
, or|pages=
– mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) quoted from. 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
. - You must also use
|pageref=
to indicate the page to be linked to (usually the page on which the Wiktionary entry appears).
- Separate the first and last page number of the range with an en dash, like this:
- This parameter must be specified to have the template determine the title quoted from, and to link to an online version of the work.
The pagination starts from 1 in each part of each tome.
|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.
