Usage

[edit]

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from the version of Joseph Addison's magazine The Free-holder (originally published 23 December 1715 – 29 June 1716 [Julian calendar]) as it appears in The Works of the Right Honourable Joseph Addison, Esq (1st edition, 1721, 4 volumes); the 1st editions of issues of the magazine are not currently available online. The template can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at the Internet Archive.

Parameters

[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |1= or |issue=mandatory: the issue number in Arabic numerals.
  • |2= or |date=mandatory: the date of the issue as shown in the work (which will be converted from the Julian to the Gregorian calendar) in the following format: "23 December 1715".
  • |3= or |page=, or |pages=mandatory in some cases: the page or range of pages 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=355–356.
    • You must also use |pageref= to indicate the page to be linked to (usually the page on which the Wiktionary entry appears).
This parameter must be specified to have the template link to the online version of the work.
  • |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.
