Usage
[edit]This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from Tobias Smollett's work The Regicide: Or, James the First, of Scotland (1st edition, 1749). It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at Google Books (archived at the Internet Archive).
Parameters
[edit]The template takes the following parameters:
|chapter=– if quoting from the preface, specify|chapter=Preface. As it is unpaginated, use|2=or|page=to specify the "page number" assigned by Google Books ("GB") to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL ishttps://books.google.com/books?id=Ix8OAAAAQAAJ&pg=PP9, specify|page=9.|1=or|scene=– mandatory: the scene number of the work quoted from in lowercase Roman numerals (or, if quoting from the last scene in Act V,|scene=the last).|2=or|page=, or|pages=– mandatory: the page number(s) 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).
- Separate the first and last page number of the range with an en dash, like this:
- This parameter must be specified to have the template determine the act number (I–V) quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.
|3=,|text=, or|passage=– the passage to be quoted.|footer=– a comment on the passage quoted.|brackets=– use|brackets=onto 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.
