Article metadata
Bibliographic references (all journals except cjc and cjp)
Element or context:
<ref-list><ref>
Requirements:
- Do not use the <x> element in any part of a bibliographic reference.
- Do not use the <label> element in any part of a non-numbered bibliographic reference
- Put each reference within a single <ref> element with unique id of the form "refg1".
- Put the the body of each reference within a <mixed-citation> element inside <ref> (See the example, below) and set the attribute 'publication-type' to one of the following: "journal" (for journal references), "book" (for book references), "conf" (for conference proceedings or papers), "report" (for reports), "thesis" (for theses), "standard" (for standards), "other-ref" (if the reference is none of the preceding types).
- Give each <mixed-citation> element a unique id of the form "ref1".
- In non-journal references only —such as books, conferences, footnotes, theses, etc.—do not include any child elements within <mixed-citation> other than formatting elements such as <bold> or <italic>. Authors' or editors' names should go directly in <mixed-citation> without additional mark up (see the 3rd reference in the Example section, below).
- Requirements for journal references only are as follows:
- The basic sequence of elements within <mixed-citation> for all non-numbered journal references is as follows: <person-group> or <collab> or <anonymous>, <year>, <article-title>, <source>, <volume>, <issue>, <fpage>, <lpage>, <pub-id>
- Put the authors' names within <person-group> with attribute 'person-group-type' set to "author".
- Within <person-group>, put individual names within <name> tags with attribute 'name-style' set to "western".
- Put the surname in a <surname> element.
- Put the given names and (or) initials in <given-names>, and include any puctuation and spacing in the authors' names or initials within <given-names>.
- If the author of the reference is a working group or organization rather than individual authors, then use the <collab> element to contain the name of the group instead of using <person-group> (see the 1st reference in the Example section, below).
- If the author list includes "et al", then put the words "et al" in a <etal> element with a space after the words "et al" but no spacing around the element (see the 2nd reference in the Example section, below).
- If the year has a sequence letter after it (e.g., 2006a), then put the letter in <comment> with attribute 'content-type' set to "year-seq" (see the 2nd reference in the Example section, below).
- If a journal reference contains a comment after the authors' names (e.g. "In press", "available at htp://ncbi.org" etc.), then put the text in a <comment> (see the 4th reference in the Example section, below).
- Put the volume within a <volume> tag.
- Put the issue in a <issue> element and put the <issue> element in parentheses
- Put the first and last pages of the reference within <fpage> and <lpage> tags, respectively, separated by an N-dash (–).
- Put the doi within a <pub-id> element, with attribute 'pub-id-type' set to "doi"; include the URL http://dx.doi.org in the doi.
- If a PubMed (Medline) id number is available for the reference, then put it in <pub-id> with attritute 'pub-id-type' set to "pmid".
