1915 September, H[erbert] G[eorge] Wells, “(please specify the page number)”, in The Research Magnificent, 1st American edition, New York, N.Y.: The Macmillan Company, →OCLC:

Usage[edit]

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote H. G. Wells's work The Research Magnificent (1st American edition, 1915); the 1st edition published in the same year (London: Macmillan, 1915; →OCLC) is not currently available online. The template can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at the Internet Archive.

Parameters[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |section= – each chapter is divided into sections. Use this parameter to specify the section number quoted from in Arabic numerals.
  • |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).
You must specify this information to have the template the name of the chapter quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.
  • |3=, |text=, or |passage= – a passage to be 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.
