Parameters

[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |edition=mandatory in some cases: if quoting from the collected edition (1714), specify |edition=collected. If this parameter is omitted, the template defaults to a 1st edition (1713) of the work.
  • |author= – the author of the work quoted from, if not indicated by the template. If quoting from one of the authors indicated in the second column of the following table, give the parameter the value indicated in the first column:
Parameter value Result
Addison Joseph Addison
Gay John Gay
Philips Ambrose Philips
Pope Alexander Pope
Steele Richard Steele
Tickell Thomas Tickell
If this parameter is omitted, the template defaults to "[anonymous]".
  • |chapter= – in the collected edition, 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
Dedication Volume I: To Lieutenant-General Cadogan
Volume II: To Mr. Pulteney
The Publisher to the Reader The Publisher to the Reader (by Jacob Tonson)
As the above chapters 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 is https://archive.org/details/bim_eighteenth-century_the-guardian-_1714_1_0/page/n2/mode/1up, specify |page=2.
  • |1= or |issue=mandatory: the issue number quoted from in Arabic numerals. This parameter must be specified to have the template determine the date of the work quoted from and, if quoting from the collected edition, the volume number (I or II).
  • |date=mandatory in some cases: if the template does not automatically indicate the date of the work quoted from, use this parameter to specify the date in the format 12 March 1713 or March 12, 1713. The date will be converted from the Julian to the Gregorian calendar.
  • |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) and scene numbers quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.
  • |column= or |columns= – if quoting from a 1st edition of the work, the column number(s) quoted from, either |column=1 or |column=2. If quoting from both columns, either omit this parameter or separate the column numbers with an en dash, like this: |columns=1–2.
  • |3=, |text=, or |passage= – the passage to be quoted.
  • |footer= – a comment about 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.
