Usage

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote from William Warburton's work The Divine Legation of Moses (1st edition, 1738–1741, 2 volumes). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at Google Books and the HathiTrust Digital Library:

• Volume I (1738; books I–III).
• Volume II, Part I (1741; book IV; archived at the Internet Archive).
• Volume II, Part II (books V and VI; 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, either |volume=I, |volume=II.1, or |volume=II.2.
• |chapter= – if not quoting from the main part of the work, the name of the chapter quoted from. If quoting from a chapter indicated in the second column of the following table, give the parameter the value indicated in the first column:

Parameter value	Result
Volume I
Advertisement	Advertisement to the Reader
Volume II.2
Appendix	An Appendix: Containing, Some Remarks on a Book, Intituled, Future Rewards and Punishments Believed by the Ancients, Particularly the Philosophers; wherein Some Objections of the Reverend Mr. Warburton, in His Divine Legation of Moses, are Considered. […] The Second Edition.

As the advertisement in volume I is unpaginated, use |3= or |page= to specify the "page number" assigned by Google Books to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL is https://books.google.com/books?id=PEEVAAAAQAAJ&pg=PP7, specify |page=7.

• |2= or |section= – the main part of the work is divided into sections rather than chapters. Use this parameter to specify the section number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals.
• |3= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) to be 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 link to an online version of the work.

Note the following pagination issues in volume II, part II:

• Pages 358–360 are misprinted as pages 366–368. Specify them as |page=358 to |page=360.
• Page numbers 591 and 592 are repeated. If quoting from the second set, specify |page=591A and |page=592A.
• The pagination of the appendix restarts from 1.

• |4=, |text=, or |passage= – a 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.
