This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote Samuel Taylor Coleridge's work The Statesman's Manual; or The Bible the Best Guide to Political Skill and Foresight (1st edition, 1816). 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:

• |appendix= – if quoting from one of the appendices, the name of the appendix (A–E).
• |1= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) quoted from, either in Arabic numerals if quoting from the main part of the work, or in lowercase Roman numerals if quoting from the appendix. 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 or |pages=x–xi.
  • 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 for the template to link to the online version of the work.

• |2=, |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.
