Usage

[edit]

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from Henry Fielding's work Rape upon Rape; or, The Justice Caught in His Own Trap. A Comedy. (1st edition, 1730), which was republished later that year under the title The Coffee-House Politician. It may be used to create a link to online versions of the work at Google Books and the Internet Archive:

Parameters

[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |version=mandatory in some cases: if quoting from the version entitled The Coffee-House Politician (for example, because the text in the 1st edition (1730) is unclear), specify |version=2. If this parameter is omitted, the template defaults to the 1st edition.
  • |chapter= – if quoting from the prologue (spoken originally by William Paget and then by William Milward) or epilogue (spoken originally by Elizabeth Mullart and then by Elizabeth Younger), specify |chapter=Prologue or |chapter=Epilogue respectively. As these chapters are unpaginated, use |2= or |page= to specify the "page number" assigned by Google Books or the Internet Archive to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL is https://books.google.com/books?id=mxNXAAAAcAAJ&pg=PP3 specify |page=3, and if it is https://archive.org/details/bim_eighteenth-century_rape-upon-rape-or-the-_fielding-henry_1730/page/n2/mode/1up specify |page=2.
  • |1= or |scene=mandatory: the scene number quoted from in lowercase Roman numerals.
  • |2= or |page=, or |pages=mandatory: the page number(s) quoted from. If quoting a range of pages, note the following:
    • Separate the first and last page number 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 determine the act number (I–V) quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.
  • |act=mandatory in some cases: in most cases, if the page number is specified the template can determine the act number quoted from. However, it is unable to do so if page 14, 30, or 46 is specified, in which case this parameter must be used to specify the act number in uppercase Roman numerals, like this: |act=I.

  • |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.
