Usage

[edit]

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from John Smith's work A Sea Grammar, with the Plaine Exposition of Smiths Accidence for Young Sea-men (1st edition, 1627). 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:

  • |1= or |chapter= – the name of the chapter quoted from. 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
Bucke To the Much Deseruing Captaine, Iohn Smith (by George Bucke)
Burley To His Worthily-deseruing Friend Captaine Iohn Smith (by Nicolas Burley)
Epistle Dedicatory To the Right Honourable, and Most Generous Lords in England, Especially Those of His Maiesties Priuy Councell, and Councell of Warre
Hagthorpe In laudem Nobilissimi viri Johannis Smith (by John Hagthorpe)
Ingham To His Well Deseruing Friend Captaine Iohn Smith (by Edward Ingham)
Iorden To his Friend Captaine Smith, on His Grammar (by Edw. Iorden [Edward Jorden?])
SS and WS In Authorem
To the Reader To the Reader and All Worthy Aduenturers by Sea, and Well Wishers to Nauigation
As the epistle dedicatory is unpaginated, use |2= or |page= to specify the "page number" assigned by the Internet Archive to the URL of the webpage. For example, if the URL is https://archive.org/details/bim_early-english-books-1475-1640_a-sea-grammar-_smith-john-governor-of_1627/page/n2/mode/1up, specify |page=2. (The other chapters indicated above are also unpaginated, but the template is able to determine the URL.)
  • |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).
You must specify this information to have the template link to the online version of the work.

After page 72, the next four pages are misnumbered 83 to 86; specify them as |page=73 to |page=76.

  • |3= 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.
