Parameters

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |1= or |section= –
    • If quoting from the dedication, specify |section=Dedication.
    • The main part of the work is divided into sections, which are indicated in the margins. Use section number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, from |section=I to |section=CXL.
  • |chapter= or |sectionname= – the name of the "chapter" or section quoted from, which are also indicated in the margins.
  • |2= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory in some cases: 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=x–xi.
    • 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.

Page 160 misprinted as 150; specify this page as |page=160.

  • |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.
