Template:RQ:Ruskin Political Economy of Art/documentation

Usage

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote John Ruskin's work The Political Economy of Art (1st edition, 1857). It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at the HathiTrust Digital Library (archived at the Internet Archive).

Parameters

The template takes the following parameters:

• |section= – mandatory in some cases: in most cases, if the page number is specified, the template will determine the section of the lecture quoted from. It is unable to do so if page 29, 43, or 129 is specified, in which case this parameter must be used to specify the section number in uppercase Roman numerals, like this: |section=I.
• |1= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory: 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).

You must specify this information to have the template determine the part of the work (lecture I or II, or the Appendix) quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.

• |note= – if quoting from the appendix, the note number quoted from in Arabic numerals, from |note=1 to |note=8.
• |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.
