This template may be used in "References" and "Further reading" sections of Wiktionary entries, and on talk pages, to provide a citation to Frank Graham's work The New Geordie Dictionary (1987). It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at the Internet Archive.

The template takes the following parameters:

• |1= or |entry= – the entry cited. If the parameter is not specified, the template uses the name of the Wiktionary entry.
• |2= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory in some cases: 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).

This parameter must be specified to have the template link to the online version of the work.

• |3=, |text=, or |passage= – the passage to be quoted.
• |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:New Geordie Dictionary 1987|page=31|passage=A sweetheart.|nodot=1}} (assuming the template is used in the Wiktionary entry lass); or
  • {{R:New Geordie Dictionary 1987|entry=LASS|page=31|passage=A sweetheart.|nodot=1}}; or
  • {{R:New Geordie Dictionary 1987|LASS|31|A sweetheart.|nodot=1}}
• Result: Frank Graham, editor (1987), “LASS”, in The New Geordie Dictionary, Rothbury, Northumberland: Butler Publishing, →ISBN, page 31: “A sweetheart.”
