Usage

[edit]

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote Richard Francis Burton's work Two Trips to Gorilla Land and the Cataracts of the Congo (1st edition, 1876, 2 volumes). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at the Internet Archive:

  • Part I (The Gaboon River and Gorilla Land).
  • Part II (The Cataracts of the Congo).

Parameters

[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |1=, |part=, or |volume=mandatory: the part or volume number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, either |part=I or |part=II.
  • |2= or |chapter= – the name of the chapter quoted from.
  • |3= or |page=, or |pages=mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) quoted from in Arabic or lowercase Roman numerals, as the case may be. 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=10–11 or |pages=x–xi.
    • You must also use |pageref= to indicate the page to be linked to (usually the page on which the Wiktionary entry appears).
This parameter must be specified to have the template link to an online version of the work.
  • |4=, |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.
