This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote Rudyard Kipling's work Traffics and Discoveries (1st edition, 1904). It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work (contents) at the Internet Archive.

The template takes the following parameters:

• |1=, |chapter=, |poem=, or |story= – mandatory: the name of the "chapter", or poem or story, quoted from. If quoting from one of the poems or stories indicated in the second column of the following table, give the parameter the value indicated in the first column:

For help with adding other poems or stories, or publication dates, to the template, leave a message on the talk page or at "Wiktionary:Grease pit".

• |2= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory: 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=10–11.
  • 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 to have the template 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.
