TiddlyWiki supports adding a citation to multi-line block quotes with the cite element, which Obsidian does not directly support. Currently tw2md eats any citation info that might exist in a tiddler.

How to resolve this is definitely up for discussion since it's not a standard Obsidian feature. Flagging for future users and providing my personal solution below. 🙂

Process the whole array without skipping the last element, and add a check for exactly <<< to remove any closing lines that don't include citation information.

tw2md/src/main/java/ca/codepit/tw2md/Main.java

Line 647 in f352808

for (String l : block.subList(1, block.size() - 1)) { 

for (String l : block.subList(1, block.size())) {
	final ArrayList<String> list = new ArrayList<>();
	list.add(l);
	if (!renderTextBlock(t, list).equals("<<<")) {
		sb.append(("> " + renderTextBlock(t, list)).trim()).append(NL);
	}
}

In the renderTextFragment function, add a line to handle the <<< citation syntax. I wrap the citation text directly in the html element, which displays properly within the block quote element in Obsidian: on its own line with some default cite element CSS formatting.

tw2md/src/main/java/ca/codepit/tw2md/Main.java

Line 523 in f352808

private String renderTextFragment(Tiddler t, String s, boolean tableRow) { 

// handle cited block quotes
s = s.replaceAll("^<<< +(.+$)", "<cite>$1</cite>");
