Usage

[edit]

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from Christopher Marlowe and George Chapman's work Hero and Leander (1606 edition (republished 1821); and 1629 edition); the 1st edition (London: [] Felix Kingston, for Paule Linley, [], 1598; →OCLC) is not currently available online. (The work is divided into six sestyads (sestiads); Marlowe wrote the first two and Chapman the rest.) The template can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at Google Books:

Parameters

[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

1606 edition (republished 1821)
  • |year=mandatory: if quoting from the 1606 edition (republished 1821), specify |year=1821. If this parameter is omitted, the template defaults to the 1629 edition.
  • |chapter= – the name of the chapter quoted, if not quoting from the main part of the work.
  • |1= or |page=, or |pages=mandatory in some cases: 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 sestyad number (1st–6th) quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.
1629 edition
  • |1= or |page=mandatory: as the work is unpaginated, you must use this parameter to specify the "page number" that Google Books has assigned to each webpage of the work. For example, if the URL of the webpage to be linked to is https://books.google.com/books?id=xVhpAAAAcAAJ&pg=PP13, specify |page=13. This parameter must be specified to have the template link to the online version of the work.
  • |sestyad=mandatory in some cases: in most cases, if the Google Books page number quoted from is specified, the template can determine the sestyad number (1st–6th) quoted from. However, it is unable to do so if page 31, 44, 60, 74, or 93 is quoted from, in which case |sestyad= must be used to specify the sestyad number in Arabic numerals.
First Sestyad
GB pages 13–31
Second Sestyad
GB pages 31–44
Third Sestyad
GB pages 44–60
Fourth Sestyad
GB pages 60–74
Fifth Sestyad
GB pages 74–93
Sixth Sestyad
GB pages 93–104
Both editions
  • |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.
