Usage

[edit]

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote Adam Smith's work The Theory of Moral Sentiments (2nd edition, 1761; and 6th edition, 1790); the 1st edition (1759) is not currently available online. The template can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at Google Books:

Parameters

[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

Parameters applicable to the 6th edition (1790)
  • |edition= – mandatory: when quoting from the 6th edition (1790), use |edition=6th.
  • |volume= – mandatory: the volume number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, either |volume=I or |volume=II.
Parameters applicable to both editions
  • |1= or |chapter= – the name of the chapter quoted from (preferably), or the chapter number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals. If giving only a chapter number, where applicable also indicate the section as the chapter number starts from I in each section.
  • |section= – some parts of the work are divided into numbered sections. Use this parameter to specify the section number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals and, if desired, the name of the section in parentheses after the section number.
  • |2= or |page=; or |pages= – mandatory: 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).
This parameter must be specified to enable the template to determine the part of the work quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.
  • |3=, |text=, or |passage= – a passage 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.
