Documentation for Template:RQ:Beaumont Fletcher Faithful Friends. [edit]
This page contains usage information, categories, interwiki links and other content describing the template.

Usage

[edit]

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from the work The Faithful Friends (written c. 1604–1626 but unpublished; 1st edition, 1812), which is doubtfully attributed to Francis Beaumont and John Fletcher. It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work in The Works of Beaumont and Fletcher edited by Henry William Weber, at the Internet Archive.

Parameters

[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |1= or |act=mandatory: the act number of the play quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals.
  • |2= or |scene=mandatory: the scene number of the play quoted from in lowercase Roman numerals.
  • |3= or |page=, or |pages=mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) quoted from. If using |pages= to quote 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 top have the template link to the online version of the work.
  • |4=, |text=, or |passage= – a passage quoted from the work.
  • |footer= – a comment about 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.

Examples
