Usage

[edit]

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from a collection of Elizabeth Barrett Browning's works entitled The Complete Works of Mrs. E. B. Browning (Arno edition, 1901, 6 volumes) edited by Charlotte Porter and Helen A. Clarke. It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at the Internet Archive:

  • Volume V (contents).
    [replace with a better copy if available]
  • Volume VI [not currently available online].

Where a specific quotation template exists (for example, {{RQ:Browning Aurora Leigh}}), use that instead of this template.

Parameters

[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |1= or |volume=mandatory: the volume number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, from |volume=I to |volume=VI (volume VI is currently not available online).
  • |2=, |chapter=, or |poem=mandatory: the chapter or name of the poem quoted from. If quoting from a title indicated in the second column of the following table, give the parameter the value indicated in the first column:
The Complete Works of Mrs. E. B. Browning
Parameter value Result First page number
Volume I
The Battle of Marathon The Battle of Marathon. A Poem. (1820) page 1
Stanzas on the Death of Lord Byron Stanzas on the Death of Lord Byron (1826) page 104
Volume II
Volume III
Volume IV
Where possible, use {{RQ:Browning Aurora Leigh}}.
Volume V
Where possible, use {{RQ:Browning Aurora Leigh}}.
Volume VI [not currently available online]
Where possible, use {{RQ:Browning Last Poems}}.
  • |stanza= – if the poem is divided into stanzas, the stanza of the poem quoted from in Arabic numerals.
  • |3= or |page=, or |pages=mandatory: the page or range of pages quoted from in Arabic or lowercase Roman numerals, as the case may be. 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 or |pages=x–xi.
    • 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 link to an online version of the work.
  • |line= or |lines= – the line number(s) quoted from. If quoting a range of numbers, separate the first and last numbers of the range with an en dash, like this: |lines=10–11.
  • |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.
