Documentation for Template:RQ:Sidney Arcadia. [edit]
This page contains usage information, categories, interwiki links and other content describing the template.

Usage

[edit]

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from Philip Sidney's work The Countess of Pembroke's Arcadia (the Old Arcadia, 1st edition, 1926; the New Arcadia, 1st edition, 1590–1593, 2 volumes, and 3rd edition, 1598). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the works at the Internet Archive:

Parameters

[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |year= – mandatory in some cases: if quoting from the edition indicated in the second column of the following table, give the parameter the value indicated in the first column:
Parameter value Edition
1926 Original edition (the Old Arcadia; written c. 1570s – 1580)
1593 The New Arcadia (contains a modified version of the 3rd book together with the 4th and 5th books; 1593)
1598 3rd edition (1598)
If this parameter is omitted, the template links to the New Arcadia (1st–3rd books; 1590).
  • |version= – mandatory in some cases: if quoting from the 1912 and 1922 versions, specify |version=1912 or |version=1922. If this parameter is omitted, the template defaults to the 1st editions (1590 and 1593).
  • |1= or |chapter= – the chapter number quoted from in Arabic numerals (in the 1590 edition), or the name of the chapter (in the 1593 edition; for example, |chapter=The Third Egloges). If quoting from one of the chapters indicated the second column of the following table, give the parameter the value indicated in the first column:
Parameter value Result
Dedication To My Deare Ladie and Sister, the Countesse of Pembroke
(In the 1st editions (1590 and 1593) and 3rd edition (1598).)
To the Reader To the Reader
(In the 1st edition (1593) and 3rd edition (1598).)
As the above chapters are unpaginated, use |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/bim_early-english-books-1475-1640_the-countesse-of-pembrok_sidney-sir-philip_1590_0/page/n2/mode/1up, specify |page=2.
  • |song= or |sonnet= – in addition to The Countess of Pembroke's Arcadia, the 3rd edition contains The Defence of Poesie, Astrophel and Stella, and The Lady of May. If quoting from Astrophel and Stella, use |song= and |sonnet= to specify the song or sonnet number in Arabic numerals.
  • |2= or |folio=, and |verso= – mandatory: the 1st editions are numbered by folios rather than page numbers. The folio number is indicated on the top right corner of each recto (right-hand) page. Use |2= or |folio= to indicate the folio number, and if quoting from a verso (left-hand) page specify |verso=1 or |verso=yes; if |verso= is omitted, the template indicates that a recto (right-hand) page is quoted. If quoting a range of folios, for example, "folios 10, verso – 11, recto", note the following:
    • Use |folio= and |verso= to specify the folio at the start of the range, and |folioend= and |versoend= (if required) to specify the folio at the end of the range.
    • In addition, use |folioref= and |versoref= to indicate the page to be linked to (usually the page on which the Wiktionary entry appears). (If quoting a recto page, omit |versoend= and |versoref=.)
These parameters must be specified to have the template determine the book numbers (1st–5th) quoted from, and to link to an online version of the work.
  • |2= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory: if quoting from the Old Arcadia (1st edition, 1926), or the 1912–1922 versions and the 3rd edition (1598) of the New Arcadia, use these parameters to specify the page or range of pages quoted from. 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.
    • 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 determine the book or part of the work quoted from, and 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.
