Usage

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote Laurence Sterne's work The Sermons of Mr. Yorick (volume I, 1st edition, 1760; volume II, 1st Dublin edition, 1760; volume III, 1st edition, 1766; and volume IV, new edition, 1768) and Sermons by the Late Rev. Mr. Sterne (volumes V–VII, 1st edition, 1769); the 1st editions of volume II and IV are not currently available online. The template can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at Google Books:

Volume I (1760; archived at the Internet Archive). Volume II (1760; archived at the Internet Archive).

Volume III (1766; contents; archived at the Internet Archive). Volume IV (1766; contents; archived at the Internet Archive). Volume V (1769; contents; archived at the Internet Archive).

Volume VI (1769; contents; archived at the Internet Archive). Volume VII (1769; contents; archived at the Internet Archive).

Parameters

The template takes the following parameters:

• |1= or |volume= – mandatory: the volume number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, from |volume=I to |volume=VII.
• |chapter= or |subtitle= – the name of a subtitle quoted from.
• |2= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatorys: 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 sermon quoted from, and to link to an online version of the work.

• |3=, |text=, or |passage= – a passage quoted from the work.
• |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.
