Usage[edit]
This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from Edgar Rice Burroughs' work The Land that Time Forgot (1st edition, September–November 1918). As no online version of this edition is currently available, the template can be used to create a link to an online version of a 1927 edition of the work published in the magazine Amazing Stories at the Internet Archive.
Parameters[edit]
The template takes the following parameters:
|1=or|part=– mandatory: the part number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, either|part=I,|part=II, or|part=III.|2=or|chapter=– mandatory: the chapter quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals. The work is divided into three books, and the chapter number starts from I in each book.|3=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=983–984. - 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).
- Separate the first and last pages of the range with an en dash, like this:
- This parameter must be specified to have the template link to the online version of the work.
|column=or|columns=– the column number(s) quoted from in Arabic numerals. When quoting from both columns, use|columns=1–2with the numbers separated with an en dash.|4=,|text=, or|passage=– a passage quoted from the work.|footer=– a comment on the passage quoted.|brackets=– use|brackets=onto 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.
