Usage
[edit]This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from John Skelton's work A Ballade of the Scottysshe Kynge (1st edition, 1513), which is said to be the earliest known ballad printed in England. It can be used to create a link to an online version of an 1882 facsimile of the work (the facsimile is on pages 93–96) at the Internet Archive.

|chapter=– the work contains ten chapters about the ballad and its subject matter by John Ashton. If quoting from one of the chapters, use these parameters to specify the name of the chapter.|1=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=10–11. - 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).
