Template:RQ:Evelyn Sylva/documentation

	Documentation for Template:RQ:Evelyn Sylva.
	This page contains usage information, categories, interwiki links and other content describing the template.

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from John Evelyn's work Sylva, or A Discourse of Forest-Trees and the Propagation of Timber in His Majesties Dominions (1st edition, 1664; 2nd edition, 1670; and 5th edition, 1729). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at Google Books and the Internet Archive:

• 1st edition (1664).
• 2nd edition (1670).
• 5th edition (1729; archived at the Internet Archive).

The template takes the following parameters:

• |edition= – mandatory in some cases: if quoting from the 2nd edition (1670) specify |edition=2nd, and if quoting from the 5th edition (1729) specify |edition=5th. If this parameter is omitted, the template defaults to the 1st edition (1664).
• |book= – in the 5th edition in Silva, in most cases if the page number is specified the template can determine the book number (I–IV) quoted from. However, it is unable to do so if page 176 is specified, in which case this parameter must be used to specify the book number, either |book=II or |book=III.
• |1= or |title= – mandatory in some cases: the title of the part of the work quoted from. If quoting from one of the titles indicated in the second column of the following table, give the parameter the value indicated in the first column. If the parameter is omitted, the template defaults to Sylva by John Evelyn:

As the above titles marked with an asterisk (*) are unpaginated, use |2= or |page= to specify the "page number" assigned by the Internet Archive to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL is https://archive.org/details/sylvaordiscourse00eveluoft/page/n6/mode/1up, specify |page=6. ("Animadversion" in the 1st edition, and "Amico Charissimo Johanni Evelyno Armigero" and "Εισ Την του Πατρος Δενδρολογιαν" in the 2nd edition, are also unpaginated, but the template is able to determine the URL.)

• |chapter= and/or |chaptername= –
  • In Sylva, use |chaptername= to specify the name of the chapter quoted from.
  • In other titles, if the part of work quoted from is divided into chapters, use |chapter= to specify the chapter number in uppercase Roman numerals, and |chaptername= to specify the name of the chapter. If quoting from an introduction or preface, specify |chapter=introduction or |chapter=preface.
  • In the 5th edition in Terra, if quoting from one of the chapters indicated in the second column of the following table, give the parameter the value indicated in the first column:

• |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.

• In the 2nd edition in Sylva:
  • Page numbers 45–52 are not used; the text is unaffected.
  • Page numbers 171 and 172 are repeated. Specify the second set of numbers as |page=171A and |page=172A.
• In the 1st and 2nd editions, the pagination restarts from 1 from Pomona, and again from Kalendarium Hortense.
• In the 5th edition:
  • In Silva:
    • After page 212 page numbers 211 and 212 are repeated; specify them as |page=211A and |page=212A
    • After page 280, page numbers 277–280 are repeated, specify them as |page=277A to |page=280A.
  • From Terra, the pagination restarts from 1.

• |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.
