Template:RQ:Harte Heiress/documentation

Usage

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from Bret Harte's work An Heiress of Red Dog and Other Tales (1st edition, 1879). It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at Google Books (archived at the Internet Archive).

Parameters

The template takes the following parameters:

• |1=, |chapter=, |poem=, or |story= – mandatory: the name of the "chapter", or poem or short story.

An Heiress of Red Dog and Other Tales

Title	First page number
‘A Tourist from Injianny’ (1872)	page 45
Poems

• |2= 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 link to the online version of the work.

• |3=, |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.
