Usage[edit]

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote Francis Bacon's work New Atlantis which was published together with Sylva Sylvarum (3rd edition, 1631); the 1st edition (London: [] VVilliam Rawley; printed by I[ohn] H[aviland and Augustine Mathewes] for William Lee [], 1627; →OCLC) is not currently available online. The template can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at the HathiTrust Digital Library.

Parameters[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |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 indicate the page to be linked to (usually the page on which the Wiktionary entry appears).
This parameter must be specified to have the template link to the online version of the work.
  • |2=, |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]

  • Wikitext: {{RQ:Bacon New Atlantis|page=12|passage={{...}} [A]ll Nations haue [[interknowledge|Enterknowledge]] one of another, either by '''Voyage''' into Forreine Parts, or by Strangers that come to them: {{...}}}}
  • Result:
  • Wikitext: {{RQ:Bacon New Atlantis|pages=18–19|pageref=19|passage=[I]n either of theſe Ships, there ſhould be a '''Miſsion''' of three of the ''Fellowes'', or ''Brethren'' of ''Salomons Houſe''; {{...}}}}
