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.

There is one required parameter: the EWD number.

The second, optional parameter specifies the title.

Example usage:

  • {{Cite EWD|1000}}[1]
  • {{Cite EWD|796a| Smoothsort – an alternative to sorting in situ }}[2]
  1. Dijkstra, Edsger W. EWD-1000. E.W. Dijkstra Archive. Center for American History, The University of Texas at Austin. (Expression error: Unrecognized punctuation character "[".xx/EWD1000.PDF original; Expression error: Unrecognized punctuation character "[".xx/EWD1000.html transcription)
  2. Dijkstra, Edsger W. Smoothsort – an alternative to sorting in situ (EWD-796a). E.W. Dijkstra Archive. Center for American History, The University of Texas at Austin. (Expression error: Unrecognized punctuation character "[".xx/EWD796a.PDF original; Expression error: Unrecognized punctuation character "[".xx/EWD796a.html transcription)

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.
