This page contains usage information, categories, interwiki links and other content describing the template.

Usage[edit]

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote Nathaniel Hawthorne's work Twice-Told Tales (1st edition, 1837–1842). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at the HathiTrust Digital Library and the Internet Archive:

Parameters[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |1= or |volume=mandatory in some cases: if quoting from the 1842 reissue of Volume I or the 1st edition of Volume II, specify the volume number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, either |volume=I or |volume=II. If this parameter is omitted, the template defaults to the 1837 version of Volume I.
  • |2=, |chapter=, or |story=mandatory: the name of the chapter or story quoted from. If the parameter is given the value specified in the first column of the following table, the template will link to an English Wikipedia article about the story, or format the name of the story, as shown in the second column:

For help with adding other English Wikipedia articles to the template, leave a message on the talk page or at "Wiktionary:Grease pit".
  • |3= or |page=, or |pages=mandatory in some cases: 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).
You must specify this information to have the template link to an online version of the work.
  • |4=, |text=, or |passage= – a passage to be quoted from the work.
  • |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.
