Usage
[edit]This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote John Donne's work Paradoxes, Problemes, Essayes, Characters (1st edition, 1652). It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at the Internet Archive.
Parameters
[edit]The template takes the following parameters:
|part=– mandatory in some cases: if quoting from "Ignatius His Conclave" (1611) specify|part=Ignatius, and if quoting from "Essayes in Divinity" specify|part=Essayes. If this parameter is omitted, the template defaults to the first part of the work containing "Paradoxes", "Problems", etc.|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 |
|---|---|
| *Epistle Dedicatory | To the Right Honorable Francis Lord Newport, Baron of Higharcale (written 2 March 1612 [Julian calendar]) |
| Jonson | Ben. Johnson to the Author (by Ben Jonson) |
| Ignatius His Conclave | |
| *Printer | The Printer to the Reader (by an anonymous printer) |
| Essayes in Divinity | |
| *To the Reader | To the Reader (by John Donne the Younger) |
- As the chapters marked with an asterisk (*) are unpaginated, use
|2=or|page=to specify the "page number" assigned by the Internet Archive to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL ishttps://archive.org/details/bib_fict_9075526/page/n12/mode/1up, specify|page=12. (The dedicatory poem by Jonson is also unpaginated, but the template can determine the URL.)
|2=or|page=, or|pages=– mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) 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=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).
- Separate the first and last pages of the range with an en dash, like this:
- You must specify this information to have the template determine, in some cases, the name of the part of the work quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.
In "Characters", page 68 is misprinted as 86; specify it as
|page=68.
|3=,|text=, or|passage=– the passage to be quoted.|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.
