Template:RQ:Derham Physico-Theology/documentation

Usage

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote William Derham's work Physico-Theology: Or, A Demonstration of the Being and Attributes of God, from His Works of Creation (1st edition, 1713). It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at Google Books (archived at the Internet Archive).

Parameters

The template takes the following parameters:

• |1= or |chapter= – the name of the chapter quoted from. If quoting from the dedication or "To the Reader", specify |chapter=Dedication or |chapter=To the Reader. As these chapters are unpaginated, use |2= 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://books.google.com/books?id=zfdiAAAAcAAJ&pg=PP13, specify |page=13.
• |section= – a section of the work quoted from, for example, |section=footnote 3.
• |2= 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 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 determine the book (I–XI) quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.

• Page numbers 261–310 are unused; the text is unaffected.
• Page 301 is misnumbered as 311. Specify |page=301.
• Pages 436–444 are misnumbered as 336–344. Specify |page=436 to |page=444.

• |book= – in most cases if the page number is specified, the template can determine the book number quoted from. It is unable to do so if page 37 is specified, in which case either |book=I or |book=II must be specified.
• |3=, |text=, or |passage= – a 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.
