Usage
[edit]This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from Ben Jonson's work The Masque of the Gypsies (also known as The Gypsies Metamorphosed), which was first published in Jonson's English translation of Horace's work Ars Poetica entitled Q. Horatius Flaccus: His Art of Poetry (1st edition, 1640). The template can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at the Internet Archive.
Parameters
[edit]The template takes the following parameters:
|1=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=43–44. - You must also use
|pageref=to indicate the page to be linked to (usually the page on which the Wiktionary entry appears).
- Separate the first and last page number of the range with an en dash, like this:
- This parameter must be specified to have the template link to the online version of the work.
Page numbers 69–82 are repeated; the text is unaffected. When referring to the second set of page numbers, specify them as
|page=69Ato|page=82A.
|2=,|text=, or|passage=– the passage to be quoted.|footer=– a comment on the passage quoted.|brackets=– use|brackets=onto 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.
