This template may be used in "References" and "Further reading" sections and on talk pages to format references from James Orchard Halliwell's work A Dictionary of Archaic and Provincial Words, Obsolete Phrases, Proverbs, and Ancient Customs, from the Fourteenth Century (1st edition, 1846–1847, 2 volumes). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at Google Books:

• Volume I (A–I).
• Volume II (J–Z).

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= – 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=110–111.
  • 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 create an automatic link to the online version of the work.

• |column= or |columns= – the column number(s) to be quoted from in Arabic numerals, either |column=1 or |column=2. When referring to a passage that spans both 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:Halliwell Dictionary|page=223|column=1}} (when used in the entry buttillary); or
  • {{R:Halliwell Dictionary|entry=BUTTILLARY|page=223|column=1}}; or
  • {{R:Halliwell Dictionary|BUTTILLARY|223|column=1}}
• Result:
  • James Orchard Halliwell (1846) “BUTTILLARY”, in A Dictionary of Archaic and Provincial Words, Obsolete Phrases, Proverbs, and Ancient Customs, from the Fourteenth Century. In Two Volumes, volumes I (A–I), London: John Russell Smith, , →OCLC, page 223, column 1.
