Template:RQ:Woolf Orlando/documentation

Usage

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote Virginia Woolf's work Orlando: A Biography (1st American edition, 1928); the 1st edition published in the same year (London: The Hogarth Press, 1928; →OCLC) is not currently available online. The template can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at the Internet Archive and Project Gutenberg Australia:

• 1st American edition (1928).
• Project Gutenberg Australia version (2015).

Parameters

The template takes the following parameters:

1st American edition (1928)

• |1= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory: the page number(s) quoted from in Arabic or lowercase Roman numerals, as the case may be. 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 or |pages=vii–viii.
  • 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 chapter quoted from (preface, or 1–6), and to link to the online version of the work. If no page number is specified, the template links to the Project Gutenberg Australia version of the work.

Project Gutenberg Australia version (2015)

• |chapter= – mandatory in some cases: either |chapter=Preface or the chapter number quoted from in Arabic numerals, from |chapter=1 to |chapter=6. This parameter must be specified to have the template link to the online version of the work.

Both versions

• |4=, |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.
