The following documentation is located at Template:RQ:Tennyson Princess/documentation. ^[edit]

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote Alfred, Lord Tennyson's work The Princess: A Medley (1st edition, 1847; and 3rd edition, 1850). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at Google Books and the Internet Archive:

1st edition (1847).
3rd edition (1850; archived at the Internet Archive) – the poem was extensively rewritten.

The template takes the following parameters:

|edition= – mandatory in some cases: if quoting from the 3rd edition (1850), specify |edition=3rd.
|1= or |part= – the part of the work quoted from, either |part=Prologue, |part=I to |part=VII in uppercase Roman numerals, or |part=Conclusion. This parameter may be omitted if the page number is specified, as the template can then automatically determine the part of the work.
|2= or |page=; or |pages= – mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) quoted from. When quoting a range of pages, note the following:
- Separate the first and last pages of the range with an en dash, like this: |pages=10–11.
- 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 determine the part of the work quoted from, and to 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 |brackets=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.
