Usage
[edit]This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from the work The Roaring Girle: Or Moll Cut-purse (1st edition, 1611), which is attributed to Thomas Middleton and Thomas Dekker. It 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:
|chapter=– if quoting from one of the chapters indicated in the second column of the following table, give the parameter the value indicated in the first column:
| Parameter value | Result |
|---|---|
| Epilogus | Epilogus |
| Epistle | To the Comicke, Play-readers, Venery, and Laughter |
| Prologus | Prologus |
- As the epistle and epilogus are unpaginated, use
|1=or|page=to specify the "page number" assigned by the Internet Archive ("IA") to the URL of the webpage to link to. For example, if the URL ishttps://archive.org/details/roaringgirleormo00midd/page/n6/mode/1up, specify|page=6. (The prologus is also unpaginated, but the template can determine the webpage to link to.)
|1=or|page=– mandatory: as the work is unpaginated, use this parameter to specify the IA page number. This parameter must be specified to have the template determine the act number (I–V) quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.|act=– mandatory in some cases: in most cases, if the IA page number is specified the template can determine the act number quoted from. The template is unable to do so if IA pages 20, 36, 57, or 73 is quoted from, in which case|act=must be used to manually specify the act number in uppercase Roman numerals, like this:|act=I
- As the act and scene numbers are not indicated in the work, they may be looked up in a version of the work published in The Works of Thomas Middleton (1st edition, 1885, volume IV). The act numbers are also indicated below:
| Act I IA pages 8–20 |
Act II IA pages 20–36 ("The three shops open in a ranke: [...]") |
Act III IA pages 36–57 ("Enter Laxton in Graies-Inne fields [...]") |
Act IV IA pages 57–73 ("Enter Sir Alexander Wengraue solus.") |
Act V IA pages 73–93 ("Enter Iacke Dapper, Moll, [...]") |
|sig=or|signature=, and|verso=–|sig=or|signature=can be used to specify the signature number quoted from, which is indicated at the bottom centre of some pages. If quoting from a verso (left-hand) page specify|verso=1or|verso=yes; if|verso=is omitted, the template indicates that a recto (right-hand) page is quoted.- If a signature number is not indicated on a page, extrapolate it from the signature numbers before and after the page and enclose it in brackets using
[and]For example, if the previous signature number is A3 and the next one is B, specify the missing signature number as|sig=[A4]: see the example below. - If quoting a range of signatures, for example, "signature B, verso – B2, recto", use
|sig=or|signature=, and|verso=, to specify the signature at the start of the range, and|sigend=or|signatureend=, and|versoend=, (if required) to specify the signature at the end of the range. - If this parameter is omitted, the template links the URL of the online version of the work to the chapter name (the epistle, prologus, or epilogus) if specified, or to the act and scene numbers.
- If a signature number is not indicated on a page, extrapolate it from the signature numbers before and after the page and enclose it in brackets using
|scene=– the scene number quoted from in lowercase Roman numerals. (This parameter can be omitted if quoting from IA pages 8–41, as the template can indicate "scene i".)|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.
