แม่แบบ:R:OED2/documentation

Usage

This template can be used in the "References" and "Further reading" sections of a Wiktionary entry, or on talk pages, to provide a citation to the 2nd edition of the Oxford English Dictionary (1989).

Parameters

The template takes the following optional parameters:

• |1= or |entry= – the entry in the Dictionary cited. If not specified, the name of the Wiktionary entry is used.
• |pos= or |part of speech= – the part of speech of the entry. By default, the template italicizes the value assigned to the parameter and adds a full stop (period) to the end. To turn off the default formatting for the purpose of specifying a different formatting using wikitext markup and templates, specify |noformat=1 or |noformat=yes.
• |2= or |volume= – the volume of the Dictionary in which the entry appears.
• |3=, |page= or |pages= – the page(s) of the Dictionary on which the entry appears. If citing a range of pages, separate the first and last page numbers of the range with an en dash, like this: |pages=110–111.
• |column= or |columns= – the column number(s) of the Dictionary on which the entry appears.
• |4=, |text=, or |passage= – a passage quoted from the Dictionary.
• |nodot= – by default, the template adds a full stop (period) at the end of the citation. To suppress this punctuation, use |nodot=1 or |nodot=yes.

Search

OED2 is publicly available but does not seem to be searchable; it's a hit and miss. Linking to it requires passing a numerical ID. One way to find an entry is by trying various guessed entry IDs you find the entry you seek.
