Usage

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote Izaak Walton's work The Compleat Angler (1st edition, 1653; and 5th edition, 1676). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at Google Books and the Internet Archive:

• 1st edition (1653; archived at the Internet Archive).
• 5th edition (1676; the last published in Walton's lifetime):
  • Parts I and II (an 1897 version; the original version of Part I is not currently available online).
  • Part II (written by Charles Cotton; archived at the Internet Archive).

Parameters

The template takes the following parameters:

5th edition (1676)

• |edition= — mandatory: if quoting from the 5th edition, specify |edition=5th.
• |year= — mandatory in some cases: if quoting from the 1897 version, specify |year=1897.
• |part= — mandatory in some cases: if quoting from Part II of the 5th edition by Cotton, specify |part=II.

All versions

• |1= or |chapter= – the chapter number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, or the name of the chapter, as the case may be. If quoting from an epistle dedicatory, specify |chapter=Epistle Dedicatory. As these are unpaginated, use |2= or |page= to specify the "page number" assigned by Google Books to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL is https://books.google.com/books?id=nPY3AQAAMAAJ&pg=PP11, specify |page=11.
• |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 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.
