Usage[edit]

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from Robert Boyle's work Essays of the Strange Subtilty, Great Efficacy, Determinate Nature of Effluviums (1st edition, 1673). It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at Google Books (archived at the Internet Archive).

Parameters[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |1= or |title=mandatory: if quoting from one of the titles indicated in the second column of the following table, give the parameter the value indicated in the first column:
Parameter value Result
Advertisement An Advertisement to the Reader
Determinate Of the Determinate Nature of Effluviums
Efficacy Of the Great Efficacy of Effluviums
Fire New Experiments to Make the Parts of Fire and Flame Stable & Ponderable
The Printer to the Reader The Printer to the Reader
Subtilty Of the Strange Subtilty of Effluviums
  • As "An Advertisement to the Reader" and "The Printer to the Reader" are unpaginated, use |2= or |page= to specify the "page number" assigned by Google Books to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL is https://books.google.com/books?id=XjBmAAAAcAAJ&pg=PP7, specify |page=7.
  • The rest of the titles must be specified as the pagination restarts from 1 in each title.
  • |chapter=
    • If quoting from the preface of "New Experiments to Make the Parts of Fire and Flame Stable & Ponderable", specify |chapter=Preface. As it is unpaginated, use |2= or |page= to specify the "page number" assigned by Google Books to the URL of the webpage to be linked to.
    • In other cases, use this parameter to specify the chapter number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals.
  • |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, in "New Experiments to Make the Parts of Fire and Flame Stable & Ponderable", the part of the title quoted from, and to 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.
