Usage

[edit]

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from John Heywood's work The Foure PP (1st edition, 1545?). As this edition is not currently available online, the template can be used to create a link to an online version of a 1908 reprint of the work at the Internet Archive.

Parameters

[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |chapter= – if quoting from the untitled introduction by John S. Farmer, specify |chapter=Introduction.
  • |1= or |page=, or |pages=mandatory in some cases:
    • If quoting from the introduction, the page number(s) in lowercase Roman numerals. 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=v–vi.
      • 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).
    • If quoting from the main part of the work, as it is unpaginated use |1= or |page= to specify the "page number" assigned by the Internet Archive to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL is https://archive.org/details/playcalledfourpp00johnrich/page/n13/mode/1up, specify |page=13.
You must specify this information to have the template link to the online version of the work.
  • |sig= or |signature=, and |verso= – as the work is not divided into acts and scenes, |sig= or |signature= can be used to specify the signature number quoted from, which is indicated at the bottom centre of some pages. If quoting from a verso (left-hand) page specify |verso=1 or |verso=yes; if |verso= is omitted, the template indicates that a recto (right-hand) page is quoted.
    • If a signature number is not indicated on a page, extrapolate it from the signature numbers before and after the page and enclose it in brackets using [ and ] For example, if the previous signature number is A3 and the next one is B, specify the missing signature number as |sig=[A4]: see the example below.
    • If quoting a range of signatures, for example, "signature A.i., verso – A.ii., recto", use |sig= or |signature=, and |verso=, to specify the signature at the start of the range, and |sigend= or |signatureend=, and |versoend=, (if required) to specify the signature at the end of the range.
    • If this parameter is omitted, the template displays the URL of the online version of the work as a superscript link after the series.
  • |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.
