This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote from John Ormsby's work The Ingenious Gentleman Don Quixote of La Mancha (1885, 4 volumes), an English translation of Miguel de Cervantes' work Don Quixote. It may be used to create a link to online versions of the work at the Internet Archive:

• Volume I (part I, chapters I–XXIV).
• Volume II (part I, chapters XXV–LII).
• Volume III (part II, chapters I–XXXVIII).
• Volume IV (part II, chapters XXXIX–LXXIV).

The template takes the following parameters:

• |1= or |volume= – mandatory: the volume number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, |volume=I, |volume=II, |volume=III, or |volume=IV. Specifying the volume number also enables the template to determine which part of the work (I or II) is quoted from.
• |2= or |chapter= – the chapter number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals (which start from I in each part), or, preferably, the name of the chapter.
• |3= 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 link to an online version of the work.

• |4=, |text=, or |passage= – a passage to be quoted from the work.
• |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.
