The following documentation is located at Template:RQ:Dryden Tyrannick Love/documentation. ^[edit]

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from John Dryden's work Tyrannick Love (1st edition, 1670). It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at the Internet Archive.

The template takes the following parameters:

|chapter= – if quoting from a part of the work other than the play, use this parameter to specify the name of the part, like this: |chapter=Epistle Dedicatory, |chapter=Preface, |chapter=Prologue, or |chapter=Epilogue.
|url= – the parts of the work mentioned above are not paginated. If quoting from the prologue or epilogue the template can automatically determine the webpage to link to, but if quoting from the epistle dedicatory or preface use this parameter to manually specify the URL of the webpage, like this: |url=https://archive.org/details/tyrannickloveorr00dryd/page/n8/mode/1up.
|act= – mandatory in some cases: in most cases, if the page number is specified the template will determine the the act number quoted from, as shown below. However, it is unable to do so if page 11 or 19 is specified, in which case the act number must be manually specified in uppercase Roman numerals, like this: |act=I.

|scene= – the scene number, if any, in lowercase Roman numerals. As the scene numbers are not clearly indicated in the work, they may be looked up in this 1882 edition of the work.
|1= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory: the page or range of pages quoted from. If quoting a range of pages, note the following:
- Separate the first and last page numbers of the range with an en dash, like this: |pages=10–11.
- 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.

|2=, |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.
