Parameters
[edit]The template takes the following parameters:
|1=,|chapter=, or|sermon=– mandatory: the name of the chapter or sermon quoted from. If the parameter value stated in the first column of the following table is specified (for example,|chapter=Peterborough), the template displays what is indicated in the second column:
| Parameter value | Result |
|---|---|
| Epistle Dedicatory | To His Most Sacred Majesty, Charles II. […] |
| Peterborough | Upon the Sending of the First Volume of These Sermons to the Right Reverend Father in God, the Bishop of Peterborough, then My Diocesan, I Received This Letter |
| Postscript | Postscript |
| To the Reader | To the Reader |
- As the epistle dedicatory and "To the Reader" are unpaginated, use
|2=or|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 ishttps://books.google.com/books?id=2PdiAAAAcAAJ&pg=PP7, specify|page=7. (The postscript and the Bishop of Peterborough's letter are also unpaginated, but the template can automatically determine the URL.)
|date=– the date of the sermon quoted from according to the Julian calendar. The template will convert it to a date in the Gregorian calendar.|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 link to the online version of the work.
|3=,|text=, or|passage=– a 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.
