Usage

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from a collection of works by Alexander Pope and others called Mr Pope’s Literary Correspondence (1st edition, 1735–1737, 5 volumes). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at Google Books and the Internet Archive:

Much of the material in volumes II–V is not by Pope.

Parameters

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |1= or |volume= – mandatory: the volume number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, from |volume=I to |volume=V.
  • |part= – mandatory in some cases: each volume is divided into a number of notional parts, with the pagination starting from 1 in each part. Use this parameter to specify the part number quoted from in Arabic numerals, according to the information in the following table:
Volume Part number
2 3 4
I From "Letters of Sir William Trumbull " From "Letters of Mr. Pope to H C Esq" —
II From "Letters to Henry Cromwell, Esq" From "Letters of Bishop Atterbury to Mr. Pope" From "The Negotiations of Matthew Prior, Esq"
III From "Letters between Thomas Uvedale, Esq; and the Celebrated Mrs. Elizabeth Thomas" From "Impartial Memorians of the Life and Writings of Thomas Hearne" From "A Short Memorial, and Character of Mary Dutchess of Ormonde"
IV From "Letters Written by King Henry the VIIIth, to Anne Boleyn" From "Lettres Moscovites: Or, Muscovian Letters" —
V From "Dean Swift to Mr Pope" From "The Works of William Walsh" —
If this parameter is omitted, the template defaults to part 1 in each volume.
  • |author= – if the chapter quoted from is not by Pope, use this parameter to specify the name of the author.
  • |translator= – if a chapter is translated, the name of the translator.
  • |2= or |chapter= – the name of the chapter quoted from. If quoting from the preface in volume I, specify |chapter=Preface. As it is unpaginated, use |3= 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/mrpopesliterary01/page/n9/mode/1up, specify |page=9.
  • |date=, or (|month= and) |year= – if the chapter quoted from is separately dated (for example, if it is a letter), use |date= to specify the date in the format 26 December 1704 or December 26, 1704. The date will be converted from the Julian to the Gregorian calendar. If only the month and year, or year alone, of the chapter is known, use |month= and/or |year= to specify this information.
  • |3= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory in some cases: the page or range of pages quoted from, either 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 an online version of the work.
  • In volume I:
    • In part 1 after page 176, pages 177–184 are misnumbered 169–176; specify them as |page=177 to |page=184.
    • In part 3, the pagination begins with page 233—part 2 ends on page 128 and page numbers 129–232 are not used; the text is unaffected.
  • In volume V, page numbers 65 and 66 are reused; specify those pages as |page=65A and |page=66A.
  • |4=, |text=, or |passage= – the passage to be quoted.
  • |footer= – a comment about 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.
