Usage
This template cannot be subst'd, unless this is done before it is put inside <ref...></ref> (due to a bug in the <ref> and <references /> system).
This template is for creating a properly-formatted reference citation to Mike Shamos's The New Illustrated Encyclopedia of Billiards, very frequently cited in cue sports articles (see WikiProject Cue sports for more information). It is almost always used inside <ref name="Shamos 1999"></ref>.
