Usage

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from John Milton's work The Tenure of Kings and Magistrates (1st edition, 2nd printing, 1649); the 1st printing published in the same year (London: […] Matthew Simmons, […], 1649; →OCLC) is not currently available online. The template can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at Google Books.

Parameters

The template takes the following parameters:

• |1= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) quoted from. If a page number is not clearly indicated in the Google Books version of the work, obtain it from the part of the URL of the webpage after "pg=PA". For example, if the URL is https://books.google.com/books?id=6Q0yUmpca3wC&pg=PA1, specify |page=1.

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.

• |2=, |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.
