Usage[edit]

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote Joseph Strutt's work Queenhoo-Hall (1st edition, 1808, 4 volumes), which was unfinished at the author's death and completed and edited by Walter Scott. It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at the Internet Archive:

Parameters[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |1= or |volume=mandatory: the volume number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, from |volume=I to |volume=IV.
  • |chapter= – if quoting from the advertisement or the preface in volume I, specify |chapter=Advertisement or |chapter=Preface respectively.
  • |scene=mandatory in some cases: if quoting from Ancient Times, a Drama in volume IV, use this parameter to specify the scene number quoted from in lowercase Roman numerals.
  • |2= or |page=, or |pages=mandatory: the page number(s) quoted from. If quoting from the advertisement or preface, specify the page number(s) in lowercase Roman numerals. 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 or |pages=i–ii.
    • 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 section (I–IX) and chapter quoted from or, if quoting from Ancient Times, a Drama in volume IV, the act number (I–V) quoted from, and to link to an online version of the work.
  • |3=, |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.

Examples[edit]
