This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from John Fletcher's work The Faithfull Shepheardesse (1st edition, ). 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:
|chapter=
– 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:Parameter value | Result | First signature number |

|1=
or |page=
– mandatory: as the work is unpaginated, use |1=
or |page=
to specify the "page number" assigned by the Internet Archive ("IA") to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL is https://archive.org/details/bim_early-english-books-1475-1640_the-faithfull-shephearde_fletcher-john_1610/page/n8/mode/1up
, specify |page=8
. This parameter must be specified to have the template determine the act number (I–V) quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.|act=
– mandatory in some cases: in most cases, if the IA page number is specified the template can determine the act number quoted from. However, it is unable to do so if IA page 23, 34, or 66 is specified, in which case this parameter must be used to specify the act number in uppercase Roman numerals, like this: |act=I
.Act I IA pages 8–23 |
Act II IA pages 23–34 |
Act III IA pages 34–49 |
Act IV IA pages 50–66 |
Act V IA pages 66–83 |
|sig=
or |signature=
, and |verso=
– |sig=
or |signature=
can be used to specify the signature number quoted from, which is indicated at the bottom centre of some pages. If quoting from a verso (left-hand) page specify |verso=1
or |verso=yes
; if |verso=
is omitted, the template indicates that a recto (right-hand) page is quoted.
[
and ]
For example, if the previous signature number is A3 and the next one is B, specify the missing signature number as |sig=[A4]
.|sig=
or |signature=
, and |verso=
, to specify the signature at the start of the range, and |sigend=
or |signatureend=
, and |versoend=
, (if required) to specify the signature at the end of the range.|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.{{RQ:Fletcher Faithfull Shepheardesse|sig=[G4]|verso=1|page=57|passage=hou ſhalt finde him vnder neath a '''brim''', / Of ſayling Pynes that edge yon Mountaine in.}}
