Documentation for Template:RQ:Hale Mankind. [edit]
This page contains usage information, categories, interwiki links and other content describing the template.

Usage

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from Matthew Hale's work The Primitive Origination of Mankind (1st edition, 1667). It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at the HathiTrust Digital Library (archived at the Internet Archive).

Parameters

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |1= or |chapter= – the name of the chapter quoted from. If quoting from "To the Reader", specify |chapter=To the Reader. As that chapter is unpaginated, use |2= or |page= to specify the "page number" assigned by the HathiTrust Digital Library to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL is https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=mdp.39015073768015&view=1up&seq=13, specify |page=13.
  • |2= or |page=, or |pages=mandatory in some cases: the page or range of pages quoted from. 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.
    • 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 determine the section number (I–IV) quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.
  • |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.
