Usage

[edit]

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from the work Lust's Dominion: Or, The Lascivious Queen (1818 edition; originally attributed to Christopher Marlowe but now to Thomas Dekker, John Day, and William Haughton); the 1st edition (London: [] [Jane Bell] for F[rancis] K[irkman] and are to be sold by Robert Pollard, [], 1657; →OCLC) is not currently available online. The template can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at the HathiTrust Digital Library.

Parameters

[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |1= or |scene=mandatory: the scene number quoted from in lowercase Roman numerals.
  • |2= or |page=, or |pages=mandatory: the page number(s) of the work. If using |pages= to quote 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).
This parameter must be specified to have the template determine the act number (I–V) quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.

Page 67 of the work is wrongly numbered 76. When quoting this page, specify |page=67.

  • |act=mandatory in some cases: in most cases, if the page number is specified the template can determine the act number quoted from. The template is unable to do so if page 46 is quoted from, in which case |act= must be used to manually specify the act number (III or IV) in uppercase Roman numerals.
Act I
pages 1–15
Act II
pages 16–31
Act III
pages 32–46
Act IV
pages 46–61
Act V
pages 62–83
  • |3=, |text=, or |passage= – the passage to be 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.
