Usage

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote Oliver Goldsmith's work A Survey of Experimental Philosophy, Considered in Its Present State of Improvemen (1st edition, 1776, 2 volumes). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at Google Books:

• Volume I (book I; archived at the Internet Archive).
• Volume II (books II and III; archived at the Internet Archive).

Parameters

The template takes the following parameters:

• |1= or |volume= – mandatory: the volume number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, either |volume=I or |volume=II.
• |2= or |chapter= – the name of the chapter quoted from. As the advertisement in volume I is unpaginated, use |3= 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 is https://books.google.com/books?id=Qg0uAAAAcAAJ&pg=PP5, specify |page=5.
• |3= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory in some cases: 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 book number (I–III) quoted from, and to link to an online version of the work.

• |4=, |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.
