Template:RQ:Wyatt Egerton/documentation

Usage
This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote the Egerton Manuscript 2711, originally compiled under the direction of as a fair copy of his own poems and later expanded by him with new poems in his own hand, spanning the period from about 1527 to shortly before his death in 1542. It can be used to create a link to the online version of the work at the British Library:


 * online facsimile of the manuscript

Parameters
The template takes the following parameters:


 * 1 or poem or title – mandatory: the poem quoted. Since most of the poems in the manuscript are not provided with titles, this is conventionally given as the poem’s incipit (first line).
 * year – the year the poem quoted was written, if it can be determined with greater specificity than 1527–1542 (the timespan over which the whole manuscript was written).
 * 2 or page, or pages – mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) of the work. Page numbers should be expressed as the folio number followed by  for recto or   for verso, e.g. folio 26 verso should be given as 26v. If using pages to quote a range of pages, note the following:
 * Separate the first and last pages of the range with an en dash, like this: 10v–11r.
 * 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.


 * 3, text, or passage – the passage to be quoted.
 * 4, t, or translation – a translation of the passage into contemporary English or modernized spelling and punctuation.
 * 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.
