Parameters

[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |part=mandatory in some cases: if quoting from "A Defence of the Reflections on the Ninth Book of the First Volum of Mr. Varillas’s History of Heresies" in Reflections on Mr. Varillas's History of the Revolutions specify |part=Defence; and if quoting from A Continuation of Reflections on Mr. Varillas's History of Heresies specify |part=Continuation.
  • |chapter= – if quoting from one of the chapters indicated in the second column of the following table, give the parameter the value indicated in the first column:

Postscript Postscript
*Translator's Preface The Translator’s Preface, Put in English

*Preface Preface
As the chapters marked with an asterisk (*) are unpaginated, use |1= or |page= to specify the "page number" assigned by Google Books to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL is https://archive.org/details/bib_fict_4102905/page/n111/mode/1up, specify |page=111. (The other chapters are also unpaginated, but the template is able to determine the URLs. The main parts of the works are not divided into chapters.)
  • |para= or |paragraph= – the paragraph number quoted from in Arabic or uppercase Roman numerals, as it appears in the work.
  • |1= 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=10–11.
    • 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).
You must specify this information to have the template link to the online version of the work.

The pagination restarts from 1 in "A Defence of the Reflections on the Ninth Book of the First Volum of Mr. Varillas’s History of Heresies" and A Continuation of Reflections on Mr. Varillas's History of Heresies.

  • |2=, |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.
