This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from Tobias Smollett's work The Adventures of Peregrine Pickle (1st edition, 1751; and 1781 version, both 4 volumes). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the works at Google Books and the Internet Archive:

• 1st edition (1751):
  • Volume I (archived at the Internet Archive).
  • Volume II (archived at the Internet Archive).
  • Volume III (archived at the Internet Archive).
  • Volume IV (archived at the Internet Archive).
• 1781 version:
  • Volumes I–IV.

The template takes the following parameters:

• |year= – mandatory in some cases: if quoting from the 1781 version, specify |year=1781. If this parameter is omitted, the template defaults to the 1st edition (1751).
• |1= or |volume= – mandatory in some cases: if quoting from the 1st edition, the volume number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals. If quoting from the 1781 version, if the page number is specified this parameter may be omitted.
• |2= or |chapter= – the name of the chapter quoted, from or the chapter number in uppercase Roman numerals.
• |3= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) 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, if quoting from the 1781 version, the volume number, and to link to an online version of the work.

• |column= or |columns= – if quoting from the 1781 version, the column number(s) quoted from in Arabic numerals, either |column=1 or |column=2. If quoting from both columns, either omit the parameter or specify |columns=1–2, using an en dash between the numbers.
• |4=, |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.
