<date>

Date (in a citation)

Within a citation (such as <mixed-citation> or <related-object>), this element names the publication date of the cited source. All other dates within a citation should be tagged as <date-in-citation>.

Remarks

The date model is an element-only model, and each date contains elements such as <day>, <month>, and <year>, which by Best Practice should always be numeric values.
