Template:RQ:Holinshed Chronicles/documentation

Usage
This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from 's work Chronicles of England, Scotlande, and Irelande (1st edition, 1577, 2 volumes). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at the Internet Archive:


 * Volume I.
 * Volume II.

Parameters
The template takes the following parameters:


 * 1 or volume – the volume of the work quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, either I or II. If this parameter is omitted, the template defaults to volume I.
 * 2 or book – mandatory: for volume I, use this parameter to indicate the book quoted from, as follows:


 * 3 or chapter – the name of the chapter quoted from. If quoting from one of the chapters indicated in the second column of the following table, give the parameter the value indicated in the first column:


 * If quoting from one of the above chapters which is unpaginated, use 4 or page to specify the "page number" assigned by the Internet Archive to the URL. For example, if the URL is, specify 8.


 * folio and verso – mandatory in some cases: in volume I, the Description of Britaine and the "Description of Irelande" chapter of the Historie of Irelande are numbered by folios instead of pages:
 * Indicate the folio number, and use 1 or yes to indicate that the verso (left-hand page) is being quoted from. If verso is omitted, the template assumes that the recto (right-hand page) is being quoted from. This parameter must be specified for the template to link to the online versions of the work.
 * If quoting a range of folios, for example, "folios 10, verso – 11, recto", use folio and verso to specify the folio at the start of the range, and folioend and versoend (if required) to specify the folio at the end of the range. In addition, use folioref and versoref to indicate the page to be linked to (usually the page on which the Wiktionary entry appears). (If quoting a recto page, omit versoend and versoref.)
 * 4 or page, or pages – mandatory in some cases: other parts of the work are numbered by pages. Use these parameters to specify the page or range of pages quoted from. If quoting a range of pages, note the following:
 * Separate the first and last page number of the range with an en dash, like this: 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.


 * In The Historie of Scotlande, the page numbering starts from 1 in the "Description of Scotlande" chapter, then restarts from 1 in the main "Historie of Scotlande" part. If quoting from the "Description of Scotlande", specify Description of Scotland.
 * In The Historie of Irelande, in the part with leaves which are paginated and not foliated, the pages indicated in the first column of the following table are incorrectly numbered; the text is unaffected. Give the parameter 4 or page the value indicated in the second column instead:


 * In volume II, the pages indicated in the first column of the following table are incorrectly numbered; the text is unaffected. Give the parameter 4 or page the value indicated in the second column instead:


 * column or columns – the column number(s) quoted from. If quoting from both columns, either omit this parameter or separate the first and last column numbers with an en dash, like this: 1–2.
 * 5, text, or passage – the passage to be quoted.
 * footer – a comment about 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.
