Template:RQ:Erasmus Commune Crede

From Wiktionary, the free dictionary

Usage

[edit]

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from an anonymous English translation of Erasmus's work Catechismus, entitled A Playne and Godly Exposition or Declaration of the Commune Crede (1st edition, 1533). It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at Google Books (archived at the Internet Archive).

Parameters

[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |1=, |chapter= or |instruction=mandatory: the "chapter" or instruction quoted from in Arabic numerals, from |instruction=1 to |instruction=6:
Instruction Starting folio Instruction Starting folio
The Fyrst Instruction folio 3, recto The Fourth Instruction folio 71, verso
The Seconde Instruction folio 15, verso The Fyfth Instruction folio 114, recto
The Thyrde Instruction folio 47, recto The Sixth Instruction folio 130, verso
  • |2= or |folio=, and |verso=mandatory in some cases: 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 |2= or |folio= to indicate the folio number in Arabic numerals, and if quoting from a verso (left-hand) page specify |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 10, verso – 11, 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=.)
These parameters must be specified to have the template link to the 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.
