This page contains usage information, categories, interwiki links and other content describing the template.

Usage

[edit]

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote Henry James's work Roderick Hudson (1st collected edition, 1876; New York edition, 1907; and Project Gutenberg version, 2016). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at Google Books, the Internet Archive, and Project Gutenberg:

Parameters

[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |edition=mandatory in some cases: if quoting from the New York edition (1907), specify |edition=NY.
  • |chapter=mandatory in some cases:
    • If quoting from the New York edition or the Project Gutenberg version (2016), the chapter number of the work quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals. This parameter may be omitted if the page number is specified.
    • If quoting from the Project Gutenberg version, this parameter must be specified to have the template link to the online version of the work.
  • |1= or |page=, or |pages=mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) quoted from in Arabic or (in the New York edition) lowercase Roman numerals, as the case may be. When quoting a range of pages, note the following:
    • Separate the first and last pages of the range with an en dash, like this: |pages=10–11 or |pages=x–xi.
    • You must also use |pageref= to specify the page number that the template should link to (usually the page on which the Wiktionary entry appears).
This parameter must be specified to have the template determine, in the 1st collected edition (1876), the name of the chapter quoted, and to link to an online version of the work. If the parameter is omitted, the template links to the Project Gutenberg version.
  • |2=, |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.
