Template:RQ:Clarendon History/documentation

Usage

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from Edward Hyde, 1st Earl of Clarendon's work The History of the Rebellion and Civil Wars in England, Begun in the Year 1641 (1707, 6 volumes); the 1st edition (Oxford, Oxfordshire: Printed at the Theater, 1702–1704, 3 volumes; →OCLC) is not currently available online. The template can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at Google Books:

Volume I, part I (archived at the Internet Archive). Volume I, part II (archived at the Internet Archive).

Volume II, part I (archived at the Internet Archive). Volume II, part II (archived at the Internet Archive).

Volume III, part I (archived at the Internet Archive). Volume III, part II (archived at the Internet Archive).

Parameters

The template takes the following parameters:

• |1= or |book= – mandatory: the book number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, from |book=I to |book=XVI. This parameter must be specified to have the template determine the volume quoted from.
• |2= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) 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=10–11.
  • 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 an online version of the work.

• |3=, |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.
