සැකිල්ල:R:wquote/documentation

Usage

This template is used in the Further Reading or References section of a Wiktionary entry to link to a Wikiquote article. It works identically to {{R:wp}} other than linking to Wikiquote instead of Wikipedia.

Parameters

|1=

Language code of the language-specific version of Wikiquote to link to. Defaults to en for the English Wikiquote. NOTE: This is a Wikimedia language code, not a Wiktionary language code. See discussion below.

|2=

Wikiquote page to link to. Defaults to the current page title.

|3=

Text to display when linking to Wikiquote. Defaults to |2=.

|sc=

Wiktionary script code of the link in |2= (or of the display text in |3=, if provided). This is used when displaying the link to the page on Wikiquote. You rarely need to specify this, as it is autodetected. NOTE: This is a Wiktionary script code.

|i=1

Italicize the displayed link.

|nodot=1

Suppress the final dot (period/full stop) that is displayed by default.

Language codes

Parameter |1= specifies the version of Wikiquote to link to. This is a Wikimedia language code, not a Wiktionary language code. The two sets of language codes are similar, but there are some critical differences. For example, Wiktionary has a single language code sh for Serbo-Croatian, and no language codes for national variants of Serbo-Croatian (Serbian, Croatian, Bosnian, Montenegrin). Wikimedia, however, has both a Serbo-Croatian language code sh and national-language variant codes for Serbian (sr), Croatian (hr) and Bosnian (bs). In addition, sometimes the same language has different codes in Wiktionary vs. Wikimedia; for example, Cantonese uses yue in Wiktionary but zh-yue in Wikimedia, and Tarantino uses roa-tar in Wiktionary but roa-tara in Wikimedia.
