This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote a collected edition of Edmund Burke's works entitled The Works of the Right Honourable Edmund Burke (new edition, 1803–1827, 16 volumes) edited by Walker King and French Laurence. It can be used to create a link to online versions of the works at the HathiTrust Digital Library and the Internet Archive:

Where a specific template for a work exists (for example, {{RQ:Burke Sublime and Beautiful}}), use that template instead of this one.

The template takes the following parameters:

• |1= or |volume= – mandatory: the volume number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, from |volume=I to |volume=VIII.
• |2=, |chapter=, or |title= – mandatory: the name of the chapter or title of the work quoted from. If the parameter is given the value indicated in the first column of the following table, the template displays the result indicated in the second column:

For help with linking other English Wikipedia articles or or adding publication dates to the template, leave a message on the talk page or at "Wiktionary:Grease pit".

• |subchapter= or |subtitle= – the name of a subchapter or subtitle quoted from.
• |date= – the date of a work quoted from in the following format: "28 May 1794".
• |section= – a section of the work quoted from.
• |3= or |page=, or |pages= – 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=10–11.
  • 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).

This parameter must be specified to have the template, in some cases, to determine the part of the title 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.
