Template:R:COED2/documentation

	Documentation for Template:R:COED2. [edit]
	This page contains usage information, categories, interwiki links and other content describing the template.

This template may be used in the "References" and "Further reading" sections of Wiktionary entries and on talk pages to format references from The Compact Oxford English Dictionary (2nd edition, 1991, 2 volumes).

The template takes the following parameters:

• |1= or |entry= – the entry or headword in the work to be cited in uppercase letters. If this parameter is omitted, the template uses the name of the Wiktionary entry.
• |2= or |page=, or |pages= – the page number(s) quoted from. When quoting a range of pages, separate the first and last pages of the range with an en dash, like this: |pages=110–111.
• |column= or |columns= – the column number(s) to be quoted from in Arabic numerals. When referring to a passage that spans a range of columns, use an en dash like this: |columns=1–2.
• |3=, |text=, or |passage= – a passage to be cited from the work.
• |nodot= – by default, the template adds a full stop (period) at the end of the citation. To suppress this punctuation, use |nodot=1 or |nodot=yes.

• Wikitext:
  • {{R:COED2|page=1407}} (when used in the entry prahm); or
  • {{R:COED2|entry=prahm|page=1407}}; or
  • {{R:COED2|prahm|1407}}
