Usage

[edit]

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from David Hume's work A Treatise of Human Nature (1st edition, 1739–1740, 3 volumes; and 1896 version). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at the Internet Archive:

Parameters

[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |year= – mandatory in some cases: if quoting from the 1896 version, specify |year=1896. If this parameter is omitted, the template defaults to the 1st edition (1739–1740).
  • |1=, |book=, or |volume= – mandatory: the "volume" or book number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, from |book=I to |book=III.
  • |2=, |chapter=, or |section= –
    • If quoting from the advertisement in book I or III, specify |chapter=Advertisement. As it is unpaginated, use |3= or |page= to specify the "page number" assigned by the Internert Archive to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL is https://archive.org/details/bim_eighteenth-century_a-treatise-of-human-natu_hume-david_1739_1/page/n2/mode/1up, specify |page=2.
    • The main part of the work is divided into sections rather than chapters. Use this parameter to specify the name of the "chapter" or section quoted from.
  • |3= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) quoted from in Arabic or lowercase Roman numerals, as the case may be. 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 or |pages=x–xi.
    • 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 part of the work quoted from, and to link to an 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.
