Usage[edit]

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote Richard Knolles's work The Generall Historie of the Turkes (1st edition, 1603). It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at Google Books.

Parameters[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |1= or |chapter=mandatory in some cases: the name of the chapter quoted from. If quoting from the epistle dedicatory or the preface to the reader, specify |chapter=Epistle Dedicatorie or |chapter=To the Reader respectively. This parameter must be specified if quoting from the epistle dedicatory, preface, or any unnumbered page to have the template link to the online version of the work.
  • |url= or |page=mandatory in some cases: as the epistle dedicatory and preface do not have page numbers, you must either:
    • use |url= to specify the URL of the webpage of the online version of the work to be linked to, like this: |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=nxRlAAAAcAAJ&pg=PP11 (this should also be used for any other unnumbered page of the work); or
    • use |page= to specify the Google Books "page" to be linked to. The actual work is unpaginated, but Google Books has assigned numbers to each page of the work. For example, if the URL of the webpage to be linked to is https://books.google.com/books?id=nxRlAAAAcAAJ&pg=PP11, specify |page=11.
This parameter must be specified to have the template link to the online version of the work.
  • |2= or |page=, or |pages=mandatory: the page number(s) quoted from. 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=110–111.
    • 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).
You must specify this information to have the template link to the online version of the work.
  • |3=, |text=, or |passage= – a passage to be quoted from the work.
  • |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.
