This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from two versions of Edward Bulwer-Lytton's work What will He Do with It?, the Tauchnitz edition (1857–1858, 4 volumes) published by Bernhard Tauchnitz, and the Knebworth edition (1875, 2 volumes) published by George Routledge and Sons. It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at Google Books and the Internet Archive:

• Tauchnitz edition:
  • Volume I (books I and II; book III, chapters I–VIII; archived at the Internet Archive).
  • Volume II (book III, chapters IX–XXIV; book IV, chapters I–XIV; archived at the Internet Archive).
  • Volume III (book IV, chapters XV–XIX; books V and VI, book VII, chapters I–XVI; archived at the Internet Archive).
  • Volume IV (book VII, chapters XVII–XXV; books VIII–XII; archived at the Internet Archive).
• Knebworth edition:
  • Volume I (books I–VI).
  • Volume II (books VII–XII).

The template takes the following parameters:

• |edition= – mandatory in some cases: if quoting from the Knebworth edition, specify |edition=Knebworth.
• |1= or |volume= – mandatory: the volume number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, from |volume=I to |volume=IV for the Tauchnitz edition; or |volume=I or |volume=II for the Knebworth edition.
• |2= or |chapter= – the chapter number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals. The chapter number starts from I in each book.
• |3= 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 determine the book number (I–XII) quoted from, and to link to an online version of the work.

• |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.
