Usage

[edit]

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from Frederic Reynolds's work Notoriety: A Comedy (1st edition?, 1792). 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 |page=, or |pages=mandatory: the page number(s) quoted from. 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.
    • 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 determine the act number (I–V) quoted fron, and to link to the online version of the work.
  • |act=mandatory in some cases: in most cases, if the page number is specified the template can determine the act number of the play. The template is unable to do so if page 15 is specified, in which case this parameter must be used to specify the act number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, like this: |act=II.
Act I
pages 1–15
Act II
pages 15–28
Act III
pages 29–42
Act IV
pages 43–55
Act V
pages 56–68
  • |scene= – the scene number of the play quoted from in lowercase Roman numerals. Because the scenes in the work are not numbered but simply indicated as "Scene", the scene numbers are displayed in brackets.
  • |2=, |text=, or |passage= – the passage to be quoted.
  • |footer= – a comment about 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.
