- As the first three chapters (the two epistles dedicatory and the preface) indicated in the table above are unpaginated, use
|3=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 ishttps://archive.org/details/fablesancientmod00dryduoft/page/n10/mode/1up, specify|page=10.
|sig=or|signature=, and|verso=– if quoting from the first three chapters (the two epistles dedicatory and the preface),|sig=or|signature=can be used to specify the signature number quoted from, which is indicated at the bottom centre of some pages. If quoting from a verso (left-hand) page specify|verso=1or|verso=yes; if|verso=is omitted, the template indicates that a recto (right-hand) page is quoted.- If quoting a range of signatures, for example, "signatures A, verso – A, recto", use
|sig=or|signature=, and|verso=, to specify the signature at the start of the range, and|sigend=or|signatureend=, and|versoend=, (if required) to specify the signature at the end of the range. - If this parameter is omitted, the template links the URL of the online version of the work to the chapter name.
- If quoting a range of signatures, for example, "signatures A, verso – A, recto", use
|2=or|book=– where a chapter is divided into books, use this parameter to indicate the book number in uppercase Roman numerals, for example,|book=II.
|3=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).
- Separate the first and last pages of the range with an en dash, like this:
- This parameter must be specified to have the template link to the online version of the work.
|4=,|text=, or|passage=– the passage to be quoted.|footer=– a comment on the passage quoted.|brackets=– use|brackets=onto 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.
