Types of Citations: There are three types of citations described by this Tag Set:
  • <std> is used to cite standards. It contains textual content (with all interior punctuation and spacing preserved and the components of the citation given in any order) and may also include standards-specific elements such as <title> for the title of the standard being cited, <std-id-group>, and <std-ref> as well as interior links such as footnotes and cross-references.
  • <mixed-citation> is used for citing books, journal articles, etc. It contains textual content (with all interior punctuation and spacing preserved and the components of the citation given in any order) and may include all the references elements first described for JATS.
  • <element-citation> is used for citing books, journal articles, etc. It contains element-only content made up of all the references elements first described for JATS in any order, with no interior punctuation or spacing.
Citing versus Interior Pointing: This <element-citation> element contains the bibliographic description of a work; the pointer to that cited description uses the <xref> element. These two elements are sometimes confused because in common language both may be called “citations”.
