This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote Isaac Watts's work Logick: Or, The Right Use of Reason in the Enquiry after Truth (2nd edition, 1726); the 1st edition (London: John Clark and Richard Hett, , Emanuel Matthews, , and Richard Ford, , 1725; →OCLC) is not currently available online. The template can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at the Internet Archive.

The template takes the following parameters:

• |1= or |chapter= – the name of the chapter quoted from. If quoting from the dedication, specify |chapter=Dedication. As it is unpaginated, use |2= 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/logickorrightuse00wattuoft/page/n10/mode/1up, specify |page=10.
• |section= – the section number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, followed by the name of the section in parentheses.
• |2= 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 the part number (I–IV) quoted from, and 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.
