Parameters

[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |edition= – mandatory in some cases: if quoting from the 2nd edition (1788) or 1823 edition, specify |edition=2nd or |edition=1823. If this parameter is omitted, the template defaults to the 1st edition (1785) of the work.
  • |chapter= – in the 1823 edition, the name of a chapter quoted from other than the main part of the work. In particular, if quoting from the "Biographical Sketch of Francis Grose, Esq.", specify |chapter=Biographical Sketch.
  • |1= or |entry= – the entry in the work quoted. If this is not specified, the template uses the name of the Wikipedia entry.
  • |noformat= – the template formats the entry name in a particular way. To override this formatting with some other wikitext markup, use |noformat=1 or |noformat=yes.
  • |2= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory in some cases:
    • As the main part of the work is not paginated, use |2= or |page= to specify the "page number" assigned by Google Books or the Internet Archive to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL is https://books.google.com/books?id=zLAJs0_prpwC&pg=PP17 specify |page=17, and if it is https://archive.org/details/groseeganvulgartongue/page/n46/mode/1up specify |page=46.
    • In the 1823 edition, the prefatory material is numbered with lowercase Roman numerals. Use |2= or |page= to specify the page 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=x–xi.
      • You must also use |pageref= to indicate the page to be linked to (usually the page on which the Wiktionary entry appears).
This information must be provided to have the template link to an online version of the work.
  • |3=, |text=, or |passage= – a passage to be 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.
