Template:RQ:Sidney Arcadia/documentation

Usage
This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from 's work  (the Old Arcadia, 1st edition: manuscript, c. 1570s – 1580, and 1926 transcription; the New Arcadia, 1st edition, 1590–1593, 2 volumes, and 3rd edition, 1598). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the works at the Folger Shakespeare Library and the Internet Archive:


 * The Old Arcadia
 * 1st edition, manuscript (c. 1570s – 1580).
 * 1926 transcription.
 * The New Arcadia
 * 1st edition of 1st–3rd books (1590).
 * Volume I (1912 version; 1st–3rd books).
 * 2nd edition of 1st–3rd books; 1st edition of 4th and 5th books (1593).
 * Volume II (1922 version; 3rd–5th books).
 * 3rd edition (1598).

Parameters
The template takes the following parameters:


 * year – mandatory in some cases: if quoting from the edition indicated in the second column of the following table, give the parameter the value indicated in the first column:


 * If this parameter is omitted, the template links to the New Arcadia (1st–3rd books; 1590).


 * version – mandatory in some cases: if quoting from the 1912 and 1922 versions, specify 1912 or 1922. If this parameter is omitted, the template defaults to the 1st editions (1590 and 1593).
 * 1 or chapter – the chapter number quoted from in Arabic numerals (in the 1590 edition), or the name of the chapter (in the 1593 edition; for example, The Third Egloges). If quoting from one of the chapters indicated the second column of the following table, give the parameter the value indicated in the first column:


 * As the above chapters are unpaginated, use page to specify the "page number" assigned by the Internet Archive to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL is, specify 2.


 * song or sonnet – in addition to The Countess of Pembroke's Arcadia, the 3rd edition contains The Defence of Poesie, ', and '. If quoting from Astrophel and Stella, use song and sonnet to specify the song or sonnet number in Arabic numerals.
 * 2 or folio, and verso – mandatory: the 1st editions are numbered by folios rather than page numbers. The folio number is indicated on the top right corner of each recto (right-hand) page. Use 2 or folio to indicate the folio number, and if quoting from a verso (left-hand) page specify 1 or yes; if verso is omitted, the template indicates that a recto (right-hand) page is quoted. If quoting a range of folios, for example, "folios 10, verso – 11, recto", note the following:
 * 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.)
 * These parameters must be specified to have the template determine the book numbers (1st–5th) quoted from, and to link to an online version of the work.


 * line or lines – if quoting from the manuscript, these parameters may be used to specify the line or range of lines quoted from the specified page. If quoting a range of lines, separate the first and last line number of the range with an en dash, like this: 10–11.
 * 2 or page, or pages – mandatory: if quoting from the Old Arcadia (1st edition, 1926 transcription; if quoting from the manuscript, page or pages may be used to provide a link to the transcription), or the 1912–1922 versions and the 3rd edition (1598) of the New Arcadia, 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 determine the book or part of the work quoted from, and link to an online version of the work.


 * 3, 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.
