Usage

[edit]

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote John Ruskin's work The Crown of Wild Olive. Three Lectures on Work, Traffic, and War. (1st edition, 1866). It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work (contents) at the Internet Archive.

Chapter First page number
Preface page iii
Lecture I. Work. (Delivered before the Working Men’s Institute, at Camberwell.) page 1
Lecture II. Traffic. (Delivered in the Town Hall, Bradford.) page 77
Lecture III. War. (Delivered at the Royal Military Academy, Woolwich.) page 139

Parameters

[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |1= or |page=, or |pages=mandatory: the page number(s) quoted from in Arabic or lowercase Roman numerals, as the case may be. 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=10–11 or |pages=x–xi.
    • 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 determine the part of the work (preface, or lectures I–III) quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.
  • |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.
