Usage edit
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>.
If you need to cite the same source in the same article more than once, use <ref name="Shamos 1999" /> for the subsequent citations.
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). There is no reason to subst it anyway, and doing so will produce messy results.
Page numbering edit
See {{rp}} if a page number is needed in subsequent citations with the <ref name="Shamos 1999" /> notation.
Otherwise, simply add the page number(s) as a parameter:
Example:
Article text.<ref name="Shamos 1999">{{Shamos 1999|23–24}}</ref>
Produces:
Article text.[1]
