<!-- The includeonly element is used because without it, an expression parsing error is reported; but the template works as designed. -->

This template is used, for instance, in the [[Dining philosophers problem|dining philosophers problem]] article, to refer to [[Biography:Edsger W. Dijkstra|Edsger W. Dijkstra]]'s collected notes (the "EWDs"), published by the University of Texas at Austin (here [http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/EWD/]).

There is one required parameter: the EWD number.

The second, optional parameter specifies the title.

A {{para|quote}} parameter may be specified; it is passed to the underlying citation template.

Example usage:
* {{tlc|Cite EWD|1000}}<ref>{{Cite EWD|1000}}</ref>
* {{Cite EWD|1000}}, i.e. the same without <nowiki><ref/></nowiki> (put here to expose potential spurious newlines bugs)
* {{tlc|Cite EWD|796a| Smoothsort – an alternative to sorting in situ }}<ref>{{Cite EWD|796a| Smoothsort – an alternative to sorting in situ }}</ref>

<references/>

== Implementation ==

This template is implemented as an invocation of [[Template:Cite book|<nowiki>{{Cite book}}</nowiki>]].

== Issues ==

This template should probably switch to named parameters and add a few more, such as year, month, day, and selwritings-pages.
