Usage

[edit]

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote from the first English translation of Rembert Dodoens' work Cruydeboeck (1554) by Henry Lyte entitled A Niewe Herball, or Historie of Plantes (1st edition, 1578). It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at the Internet Archive.

Parameters

[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |1= or |chapter= – the name of the chapter quoted from. 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:

As the chapters marked with an asterisk (*) are unpaginated, use |2= or |page= to specify the "page number" assigned by the Internet Archive to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL is https://archive.org/details/bim_early-english-books-1475-1640_a-niewe-herball-_dodoens-rembert_1578/page/n2/mode/1up, specify |page=2. (The other chapters are also unpaginated, but the template can determine the URL.)
  • |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).
This parameter must be specified to have the template determine the book number (1st–6th) quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.

Pages 150 and 151 are misprinted as 151 and 152 respectively; specify them as |page=150 and |page=151.

  • |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.
