Bibliographic references, numbered (for journals cjc and cjp only)

Element or context:

<ref-list><ref>

Requirements:

  1. Do not use the <x> element in any part of a numbered bibliographic reference.
  2. Do not put any punctuation or formatting elements (e.g., <bold>) within the <label> elements in a reference.
  3. Put each reference or group of reference parts within a single <ref> element with unique id of the form "refg1".
  4. Put the number of the reference within a <label> tag inside <ref>.
  5. Contain each reference or reference part within a <mixed-citation> element (See the example, below) and set the attribute 'publication-type' to one of the following: "journal" (for journal references), "book" (for book references), "ref-fn" (for footnotes in Canadian Journal of Chemistry only; see the 4th reference in the Examples, below, and also see the page on Footnotes ), "conf" (for conference proceedings or papers), "report" (for reports), "thesis" (for theses), "standard" (for standards), or "web-page"
  6. Give each <mixed-citation> element a unique id of the form "ref1" (for complete references that don't have parts) or "ref1a" (for a reference part).
  7. For reference parts, put the reference part letter in a <label> element within <mixed-citation>.
  8. In non-journal references only (or non-journal reference parts)—such as books, conferences, footnotes, theses, etc.—do not include any child elements within <mixed-citation> other than <label> and formatting elements such as <bold> or <italic> (See the 5th reference in the Examples section, below).
  9. Requirements for journal references only are as follows:
    1. Put the authors' names within <person-group> with attribute 'person-group-type' set to "author".
    2. Within <person-group>, put individual names within <name> tags with attribute 'name-style' set to "western".
    3. Put the surname in a <surname> element.
    4. 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>.
    5. 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>.
    6. If the author list includes "et al", then put the words "et al" in a <etal> element within <person-group>.
    7. If a journal reference contains an introductory comment (i.e., a sentence or phrase that appears before the authors' names in a reference), then put the comment within a <comment> element with attribute 'content-type' set to "intro" (See the Examples, below).
    8. 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>.
    9. Put the journal name within a <source> element.
    10. Put the year within a <year> element.
    11. Put the issue within an <issue> element and include parentheses around the <issue> element.
    12. Put the first page within a <fpage> element; do not include the last page.
    13. 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.
    14. 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".
  10. Special requirements for journal references within The Canadian Journal of Chemistry are as follows:
    1. The order of elements within <mixed-citation> for a journal reference in the Candian Journal of Chemistry should be <comment> (if needed; see requirement 9d, above), <person-group> or <collab> or <anonymous>, <source>, <year>, <volume>, <issue>, <fpage>, <pub-id>
  11. Special requirements for journal references within The Canadian Journal of Physics, the Nuclear Review, and the Candian Journal of Dietetic Practice and Research are as follows:
    1. The order of elements within <mixed-citation> for a journal reference in the Candian Journal of Physics should be <comment> (if needed; see requirement 9g, above), <person-group>, <source>, <volume>, <fpage>, <year>, <pub-id>
