This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from Thomas d'Urfey's work The Comical History of Don Quixote (1st edition, 1694–1696, 3 parts). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at Google Books:

• Part I.
• Part II.
• Part III.

The template takes the following parameters:

• |1= or |part= – mandatory: the part number of the work quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, either |part=I, |part=II, or |part=III.
• |2= or |act= – mandatory: the act number of the play quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals.
• |3= or |scene= – mandatory: the scene number of the play quoted from in lowercase Roman numerals.
• |4= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) to be 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).

You must specify this information to have the template link to an online version of the work.

• |5=, |text=, or |passage= – the passage to be 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.
