Template:RQ:Tatler/documentation

Usage
This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote the serial publication The Tatler, which was published in 1709 and 1710. It can be used to create a link to online versions of an 1822 edition (3 volumes) of the work at the HathiTrust Digital Library:


 * Volume I (numbers 1–70; archived at the Internet Archive).
 * Volume II (numbers 71–163; archived at the Internet Archive).
 * Volume III (numbers 164–271; archived at the Internet Archive).

Parameters
The template takes the following parameters:


 * pseudonym – if quoting from an issue that is said to be written by "Isaac Bickerstaff" or "Jenny Distaff", specify Bickerstaff or Distaff respectively. If this parameter is omitted, the template defaults to the pseudonym " [et al.]".
 * author – the author of the issue of The Tatler quoted from, which are indicated on the contents pages of the work.
 * If the author is either or, Addison or Steele may be specified; if an issue is by both of them, specify Addison and Steele.
 * If the author is, specify Swift.
 * If this parameter is omitted, the template defaults to "Richard Steele et al.".


 * 1 or date – mandatory: the date of the issue quoted from, like this: 12 April 1709 or April 12, 1709. The dates were stated according to the Julian calendar and the calendar year ran from 25 March of one year to 24 March of the next. Therefore, the work uses the convention of indicating two years for dates between 1 January and 24 March. Do not follow this convention; instead of specifying such a date as 3 January 1709–1710, use 3 January 1710. The template automatically determines the date according to the Gregorian calendar for display as the actual date of the work, and formats the Julian calendar date for display as the date indicated on the issue.
 * 2, issue, or number – mandatory: the issue number quoted from in Arabic numerals. This parameter must be specified for the template to determine the volume number (I–III) quoted from.
 * chapter – the name of a chapter quoted from, other than the main part of the work.
 * 3 or page, or pages – mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) quoted from in Arabic or lowercase Roman numerals (in volume I), 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).
 * This parameter must be specified to have the template 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.
