Usage

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote Louis Joseph Vance's work “An Outsider”, published in Munsey’s Magazine (November 1914), or its book version, Nobody (1st edition, 1915). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at the Internet Archive:

• 1st edition (“An Outsider” in Munsey’s Magazine, November 1914).
• Book version (Nobody, 1915).

Parameters

The template takes the following parameters:

• |year= – mandatory in some cases: if quoting from the book version, specify |year=1915.
• |chapter= – mandatory in some cases: if quoting from the 1st edition, the template is unable to determine the chapter if the specified page and column contains two chapters; in that case, specify the chapter number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals.
• |1= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory in some cases: 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).

This parameter must be specified for the template to determine the name of the chapter quoted from, and to link to an online version of the work.

• |2= or |column=, or |columns= – mandatory in some cases: if quoting from the 1st edition, the column number(s) quoted from, either |column=1 or |column=2. If quoting from both columns, either omit this parameter or separate the column numbers with an en dash, like this: |columns=1–2.
• |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.
