Template:RQ:Scott Tales of My Landlord 4/documentation

Usage

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote Walter Scott's work Tales of My Landlord, Fourth and Last Series (1st edition, 1 December 1831 but indicated as 1832, 4 volumes). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at the Internet Archive:

• Volume I (Count Robert of Paris).
• Volume II (Count Robert of Paris, continued).
• Volume III (Count Robert of Paris, continued; Castle Dangerous).
• Volume IV (Castle Dangerous, continued).

Parameters

The template takes the following parameters:

• |1= or |volume= – mandatory: the volume number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, either |volume=I, |volume=II, |volume=III, or |volume=IV.
• |2= 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=110–111.
  • 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).

You must specify this information to have the template determine the chapter quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.

• |3=, |text=, or |passage= – a passage to be quoted from the work.
• |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.
