Template:Cite EWD
Revision as of 15:23, 12 April 2012 by imported>Jimw338 (added link to EWD archive itself)
This template is used, for instance, in the dining philosophers problem article, to refer to Edsger W. Dijkstra's collected notes (the "EWDs"), published by the University of Texas at Austin (here [1]).
There is one required parameter: the EWD number.
The second, optional parameter specifies the title.
Example usage:
{{Cite EWD|1000}}
[1]- Dijkstra, Edsger W. EWD-1000. E.W. Dijkstra Archive. Center for American History, University of Texas at Austin. (Expression error: Unrecognized punctuation character "[".xx/EWD1000.PDF original; Expression error: Unrecognized punctuation character "[".xx/EWD1000.html transcription), i.e. the same without <ref/> (put here to expose potential spurious newlines bugs)
{{Cite EWD|796a| Smoothsort – an alternative to sorting in situ }}

Implementation
This template is implemented as an invocation of {{Cite book}}.
Issues
This template should probably switch to named parameters and add a few more, such as year, month, day, and selwritings-pages.
