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 Samuel Daniel's works The First Fowre Bookes of the Ciuile Wars between the Two Houses of Lancaster and Yorke (1st edition, 1595; 5 books) and The Civile Wares betweene the Howses of Lancaster and Yorke (1609; 8 books). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the works at the Internet Archive:

Parameters

[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

1st edition (1595)
  • |1= or |folio=, and |verso=mandatory: the work is numbered by folios rather than page numbers. The folio number is indicated on the top right corner of each recto (right-hand) page. Use |folio= to indicate the folio number, and if quoting from a verso (left-hand) page specify |verso=1 or |verso=yes; if |verso= is omitted, the template indicates that a recto (right-hand) page is quoted. If quoting a range of folios, for example, "folios 110, verso – 111, recto", note the following:
    • Use |folio= and |verso= to specify the folio at the start of the range, and |folioend= and |versoend= (if required) to specify the folio at the end of the range.
    • In addition, use |folioref= and |versoref= to indicate the page to be linked to (usually the page on which the Wiktionary entry appears). (If quoting a recto page, omit |versoend= and |versoref=.)
Note that the work contains the following foliation errors. Indicate the correct folio number instead of the misprinted one:
Correct folio Misprinted folio Correct folio Misprinted folio
20, recto 17, recto 79, recto 80, recto
26, recto 21, recto 85, recto 86, recto
31, recto 24, recto 87, recto 88, recto
32, recto and verso, are missing
These parameters must be specified to have the template determine the book (1st–5th) quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.
1609 edition
  • |year=mandatory: if quoting from the 1609 edition, specify |year=1609.
  • |1= or |page=, or |pages=mandatory in some cases: 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 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.
Both editions
  • |stanza= – the stanza number quoted from in Arabic numerals. The number restarts from 1 in each book.
  • |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.
