Template:RQ:Gray Works/documentation

Usage
This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote from a collection of 's works edited by entitled The Works of Thomas Gray in Prose and Verse (1st edition, 1884, 4 volumes). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at Google Books and the Internet Archive:


 * Volume I (poems, journals, and essays).
 * Volume II (letters—I; archived at the Internet Archive).
 * Volume III (letters—II; archived at the Internet Archive).
 * Volume IV (notes on Aristophanes and Plato).

Where a specific quotation template exists (for example, ), use it instead of this template.

Parameters
The template takes the following parameters:


 * 1 or volume – mandatory: the volume number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, from I to IV.
 * 2, chapter, poem, or title – mandatory in some cases: if quoting from volume I or IV, the name of the chapter, poem, or title quoted from, if the template does not automatically provide it. If quoting from one of the titles indicated in the second column of the following table, give the parameter the value indicated in the first column:


 * letter, and 2, lettername, chapter, or title – if quoting from one of the letters in volume II or III, use letter to specify the letter number in uppercase Roman numerals, and 2, lettername, chapter, or title the name of the letter.
 * date, or (month and) year – if quoting from title (such as a letter) which has a specific date that is not automatically provided by the template, use date to specify the date of the title in the format  or   (dates up to 2 September 1752 will be converted from the Julian to the Gregorian calendar), or (month and) year to specify the (month and) year of the title.
 * stanza – if quoting from a poem, the stanza number quoted from.
 * 3 or page, or pages – mandatory: the page number(s) 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: 10–11 or 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, in some cases, determine the title quoted from, and to link to an online version of the work.


 * 4, text, or passage – the passage to be quoted.
 * footer – a comment on the passage quoted.
 * brackets – use 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.
