Template:RQ:Ray Wisdom/documentation

Usage

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote John Ray's work The Wisdom of God Manifested in the Works of the Creation (1st edition, 1691; 3rd edition, 1701); the latter was the last edition published before Ray's death. It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at the Internet Archive:

• 1st edition (1691).
• 3rd edition (1701).

Parameters

The template takes the following parameters:

• |edition= – mandatory in some cases: if quoting from the 3rd edition (1701), specify |edition=3rd.
• |part= – mandatory in some cases: the work is divided into two parts. If quoting from part II, specify |part=II; if the parameter is omitted the template will default to part I.

In the 3rd edition, there is a pagination error in part II of the work: pages 193–208 are repeated. |part=II must be specified to enable the template to correctly link to those pages.

• |1= or |chapter= – mandatory in some cases: the name of the chapter quoted from. If quoting from the epistle dedicatory or preface, specify |chapter=Epistle Dedicatory or |chapter=Preface. As these chapters are unpaginated, use |2= or |page= to specify the "page number" assigned by the Internet Archive to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL is https://archive.org/details/b30322091/page/n10/mode/1up, specify |page=10.
• |2= 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 link to an 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.
