The following documentation is located at Template:RQ:John Gay Achilles/documentation. ^[edit]

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote John Gay's work Achilles. An Opera. (1st edition, 1733). It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at the Internet Archive.

The template takes the following parameters:

|chapter= – if quoting from the prologue spoken by James Quin, specify |chapter=Prologue.
|1= or |scene= – mandatory: the scene number quoted from in lowercase Roman numerals.
|air= and |airname= – if quoting from one of the "airs" or songs, use |air= to specify the air number in uppercase Roman numerals, and |airname= the name of the air.
|2= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory: the page number(s) quoted from. 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.
- 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 the act number (I–III) quoted from, and to link to the 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.
