Template:R:Brave New Words/documentation

Usage

This template may be used in "References" and "Further reading" sections, and on talk pages, to cite Jeff Prucher, editor, Brave New Words: The Oxford Dictionary of Science Fiction (2007). An online version of the work is available for preview at Google Books; not all pages are freely viewable.

Parameters

The template takes the following optional parameters:

• |1= or |entry= – the entry in the work to be cited. If this parameter is omitted, the template uses the name of the Wiktionary entry.
• |pos= or |part of speech= – the part of speech of the entry. By default, the template italicizes the value assigned to the parameter and adds a full stop (period) to the end. To turn off the default formatting for the purpose of specifying a different formatting using wikitext markup and templates, specify |noformat=1 or |noformat=yes.
• |2= or |page=, or |pages= – the page or range of pages cited. 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=110–111.
  • You must also use |pageref= to indicate the page to be linked to (usually the page on which the entry referenced appears).
• |column= or |columns= – the column number(s) cited in Arabic numerals, either |column=1 or |column=2. If citing both columns, either omit this parameter or specify |columns=1–2, separating the column numbers with an en dash.
• |3=, |text=, or |passage= – a passage quoted from the work.
• |nodot= – by default, the template adds a full stop (period) at the end of the citation. To suppress this punctuation, use |nodot=1 or |nodot=yes.
