Template:RQ:Glanvill Scepsis Scientifica/documentation

Usage

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from Joseph Glanvill's work Scepsis Scientifica: Or, Confest Ignorance, the Way to Science (1st edition, 1665). It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at the Internet Archive.

Parameters

The template takes the following parameters:

• |1= or |chapter= – the name of the chapter, or the chapter number in uppercase Roman numerals 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:

Parameter value	Result
Aristotle	A Letter to a Friend Concerning Aristotle
Scire	Scire/i tuum nihil est: Or, The Authors Defence of the Vanity of Dogmatizing; against the Exceptions of the Learned Tho. Albius [i.e., Thomas White] in His Late Sciri
To the Royal Society	To the Royal Society

As the address to the Royal Society is 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/b30325122_0001/page/n14/mode/1up, specify |page=14.

• |subchapter= – the name of a subchapter quoted from. If quoting from "The Authors Apology for His Style" under the chapter "Scire/i tuum nihil est", specify |subchapter=Apology. As this subchapter is 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, as explained above.
• |2= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory in some cases: 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 link to the online version of the work.

The pagination restarts from 1 in the chapter "Scire/i tuum nihil est".

• |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.
