Usage[edit]

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from Richard Carew's work The Survey of Cornwall (new edition, 1769); the 1st edition (London: [] S[imon] S[tafford] for Iohn Iaggard, [], 1602; →OCLC) is not currently available online. 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 |chapter= – the name of the chapter quoted from. If quoting from one of the chapters indicated in the second column of the following table, give the parameter the value indicated in the first column:
Parameter value Result
English An Epistle Concerning the Excellencies of the English Tongue (1723)
Life The Life of Richard Carew of Antonie Esq (by H[ugh] C—— [pseudonym; Pierre des Maizeaux]; 1769)
Epistle Dedicatorie To the Honourable, Sir Walter Raleigh Knight, []
Prosopopeia The Prosopopeia to the Booke
To the Reader To the Reader
As the epistle dedicatorie and "To the Reader" are unpaginated, use |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=8V0vAAAAMAAJ&pg=PP37, specify |page=37. ("The Prosopopeia to the Booke" is also unpaginated, but the template can determine the URL.)
  • |2= or |folio=, and |verso=mandatory in some cases: the main part of the work is numbered by folios rather than page numbers. The folio number is indicated on the top right corner of each recto (right-hand) page. Use |2= or |folio= to indicate the folio number, and if quoting from a verso (left-hand) page specify |verso=1 or |verso=yes; if |verso= is omitted, the template indicates that a recto (right-hand) page is quoted. If quoting a range of folios, for example, "folios 10, verso – 11, recto", note the following:
    • Use |folio= and |verso= to specify the folio at the start of the range, and |folioend= and |versoend= (if required) to specify the folio at the end of the range.
    • In addition, use |folioref= and |versoref= to indicate the page to be linked to (usually the page on which the Wiktionary entry appears). (If quoting a recto page, omit |versoend= and |versoref=.)
These parameters must be specified to have the template determine the book (1st or 2nd) quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.
  • |page= or |pages=mandatory in some cases: "The Life of Richard Carew of Antonie Esq" and "An Epistle Concerning the Excellencies of the English Tongue" are numbered using lowercase Roman numerals and Arabic numerals respectively. Use these parameters to specify the page number(s) quoted . 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 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.
