1 Introduction

TEI Tite is a constrained customization of TEI designed for use when outsourcing production of TEI documents to vendors, who use some combination of OCR and keyboarding to produce encoded text. While the canonical version of Tite is maintained by the TEI Council, a derived version is used in the AccessTEI program.

TEI Tite is meant to express a transitional format for documents, not an archival one. A project outsourcing encoding of documents using Tite should convert Tite documents created by vendors into a more suitable format for long-term preservation, such as one of the encoding levels of Best Practices for TEI in Libraries or a project-specific TEI customization.

While Tite includes only a limited set of all of the elements in TEI, it should not be confused with TEI Lite, which also contains a subset of elements. What distinguishes Tite from other TEI customizations is that Tite is meant to prescribe exactly one way of encoding a particular feature of a document in as many cases as possible, ensuring that any two encoders would produce the same XML document for a source document.

This document specifies how a source document should be encoded using TEI Tite. Its organizing model is roughly the structure of a TEI document itself, and it proceeds from high-level features to low, starting with general requirements, text structure, directions on when to group texts, considerations about type of text (genre and format), continuing down to instructions on marking phrase-level features, reference systems, and so forth. In its original ODD (one document does-it-all) format, this document can generate everything necessary for working in TEI Tite: both documentation (this Tite-specific prose as well as the full technical documentation for each of its elements) and schemas in either W3C Schema, RELAX NG, or XML DTD. Software utilities, including the Roma web tool, can generate these.

Tite uses a subset of the TEI's elements, except for a few shortcut elements for the convenience of use by vendors (b, i, ul, sup, sub, smcap, colShift and ornament) which can be transformed to normal TEI elements. Tite is also not a TEI-conformant customization since it breaks the TEI Abstract Model by omitting <teiHeader> for encoder convenience. That is, Tite was created primarily by removing elements and attributes from the TEI, and not from extensive modification. As a TEI customization, Tite inherits TEI semantics, and ambiguity in this specification should be resolved with reference to the TEI Guidelines. What makes Tite distinct is that where the TEI in general is famously tolerant of multiple methods of encoding a given feature, Tite seeks uniformity of encoding through constraint, via its stripped-down tag set and via this specification.

Tite can be used to encode printed prose, poetry, drama, newspapers, and anything else which can be described with the basic TEI building-blocks of divisions, paragraphs, line groups, and speeches.

In this documentation, document refers generally to the item (book, pamphlet, newspaper, etc.) to be encoded and text to either linguistic (as opposed to graphic) material or a logically distinct literary unit.

2 General Requirements

2.1 What to Capture

All printed material should be captured: all text (that is, printed characters) should be transcribed and the presence of graphical items or other non-transcribable elements should be indicated with markup.

2.2 End-of-line Hyphens

A distinction should be maintained in the electronic transcription between end-of-line or ‘soft’ hyphens (an artifact of page layout) and ‘hard’ hyphens (a linguistic feature). The former should be transcribed as the SOFT HYPHEN (U+00AD) character; the latter, as the HYPHEN-MINUS (U+002D) character generally available on Western keyboards. In the rare case of coincidence of the two types — where a word that is normally hyphenated is split across a line break at its hyphen — the hyphen should be considered hard, and transcribed as the HYPHEN-MINUS.

2.3 Character Encoding

Characters should be encoded in UTF-8. For characters not easily input from the keyboard, use hexadecimal numeric entities (e.g. é, the small latin e with acute accent, is represented as &#x00E9;).

2.4 Accuracy and Verification

The standard for accuracy of transcription should be at least 99.99% (1 error in 10,000 characters). The sample size for verification will be 5% of the total text.

2.5 Documenting the Encoding Process

Almost surely, difficult encoding situations will arise whose resolution may not be covered by this documentation or the TEI Guidelines. In such cases, it is important to document the markup choices that are made. To this end each encoded file should be accompanied by a document with such notes. These notes should reference features of a document that seem remarkable to encoders and how these were handled by encoders.

3 Global Text Structure

3.1 TEI Tite text structure

In TEI Tite, text is the root element, containing front matter, the body of the text, and back matter.
<text xml:id="unique-identifier">
 <front>
<!-- front matter -->
 </front>
 <body>
<!-- body of text -->
 </body>
 <back>
<!-- back matter -->
 </back>
</text>

The text's xml:id attribute should contain a unique identifier for the document being encoded.

Tite omits the <teiHeader> element as a convenience to transcribers. This departs from normal TEI practice, which requires <TEI> as the root element, containing <teiHeader> and text elements. In order to bring a document encoded in TEI Tite into adherence with the TEI Abstract Model, projects should add a teiHeader before engaging in post-transcription processing.

3.2 Groups of Texts

A document should be encoded as a group of texts only when each member of the group contains its own front or back matter (most often, a separate title page). In this case the group element should be a child of the text element, and should contain child text elements each containing a front, body, and back (each text need not have both front and back matter, but should have at least one). Note that this group of texts will still have its own front and back matter. When dealing with a group of texts, the basic TEI text structure is modified to look like:
<text>
 <front>
<!-- front matter for the group -->
 </front>
 <group>
  <text>
   <front>
<!-- front matter of first text -->
   </front>
   <body>
<!-- body of first text -->
   </body>
   <back>
<!-- back matter of first text -->
   </back>
  </text>
  <text>
   <front>
<!-- front matter of second text -->
   </front>
   <body>
<!-- body of second text -->
   </body>
   <back>
<!-- back matter of second text -->
   </back>
  </text>
<!-- more texts or groups of texts here -->
 </group>
 <back>
<!-- back matter for the group -->
 </back>
</text>

In cases where a document appears to contain a group of texts but the above condition is not met, encode each unit as a (numbered) <div> with an appropriate type attribute.

3.3 Structural Divisions

Tite uses numbered divisions: div1 through div7, which stand for levels of nesting within a text. div1s nest inside or are contained by the front, body, and back elements, div2s nest inside or are contained by div1s, etc. The document's table of contents is often a good place to find cues about where structural divisions start and end; other cues can be blank pages, recurring typographical or ornamental features, or a numbering system ("Chapter 5" etc.). Also, the presence of a heading will often indicate the beginning of a division.

The type attribute should be used to express the type of division being marked. Where present, use a name for division type given in the document itself. Though any constrained enumerated list of type values will have to be determined on a job-by-job basis, some examples of appropriate division types are:

  • act
  • article
  • book
  • chapter
  • essay
  • letter
  • part
  • scene
  • section
  • subsection

When a heading is present, encode it with the head element. If there is more than one heading at the beginning of a given division, encode each heading with its own head element, using the type attribute to distinguish them. Appropriate values are:

  • main
  • sub (subtitle)
  • alt (alternate)
  • desc (descriptive)
The n attribute should be used to record sequential labels associated with a structural division (numbers, numerals, letters). When present, these labels should also be transcribed within the content of head element. For instance:
<div1 n="IIItype="part">
 <head>III: It Awakes</head>
<!-- ... -->
</div1>

3.3.1 False Indicators

A divisional title is a page that resembles a half-title page: it displays the title or heading of a major structural unit on an otherwise blank page. Divisional titles should be encoded not with a separate <div> element, but as a head within the appropriate <div>. For half-title pages and similar fly-title pages see the section on Front Matter.

Another potential false indication of a new structural division is an ornament used as an informal division: a printer's ornament of some sort, a string of asterisks or periods, or a horizontal line. Mark these with the special ornament element. If the ornament is a horizontal line or printer's device or otherwise not transcribable, make the element empty and include an appropriate type attribute (line or ornament); if the ornament is made up of characters, transcribe the characters into the ornament's content.

3.4 Front and Back Matter

Front and back matter should be encoded with the front and back elements, respectively. div1 elements should contain the major sections and should be characterized by type attribute values. The exception, however, is the title page, which should be encoded with the titlePage element and its children. The titlePart element should have a type attribute with one of the following values:

  • main
  • sub (subtitle)
  • desc (descriptive title)
  • alt (alternate title)
  • volume (volume information)

<titlePart type="volume"> should be used to encode volume information wherever it is found on the title page, even if it is separated from the other title information. The elements that make up the titlePage content model are: graphic, byline, epigraph, docTitle, titlePart, docAuthor, docEdition, docImprint, docDate, figure, ornament.

Information on the verso of the title page should be included as well (after a pb).

Common items to encode in front and back matter -- and therefore common type attribute values for front and back divisions are:

front
  • acknowledgements
  • advertisement
  • castlist
  • contents
  • dedication
  • fly-title
  • foreword
  • introduction
  • preface

back
  • appendix
  • bibliography
  • colophon
  • glossary
  • index

Half-title and fly-title pages may be encountered in the front matter. A half-title page precedes the title page proper and sometimes includes volume or series information; a fly-title page comes at the very end of the front matter, just before the body. In the case of half-titles, encode these as <div1 type="half-title"> (with titlePart elements as appropriate); in the case of fly-titles, encode them likewise with <div1 type="fly-title">, making sure to make the fly-title division the last part of the front matter (and not the first part of the body, as may seem reasonable as well).

4 Types of Text

Tite is equipped to support basic encoding of several types of text: in terms of genre, it supports prose, verse, and drama, and in terms of format, it supports books, newspapers, pamphlets, and other similar printed material. Tite has special elements for letters, verse, drama, and newspapers.

4.1 Letters

opener and closer are elements designed to encode the beginning and ending sections of letters, prefaces, diary entries, or other personal types of writing. Both elements contain:

  • dateline: for recording time and place of composition; use date with when value (in W3C format as in the TEI Guidelines) to record date information
  • signed: for recording a signature
  • salute: for recording salutation at the beginning ("Dear Roger,") or end ("Yours truly,")

opener contains the additional elements epigraph, argument, and byline. epigraph will often be useful in the context of a letter. When encoding an epigraph, make sure to encode the content as you would any other feature, marking line groups, bibliographical elements, etc.

argument and byline, however, are not intended specifically for use with letters:

  • argument: for a summary that precedes a division
  • byline: for a statement of responsibility for the document

4.2 Verse

All verse should be encoded within at least one lg element, even when there are no distinct stanzas or when the verse is interspersed with prose. If it is known, use the type attribute to express the type of line group. Sometimes within a poem there is a question about what should be tagged as a lg or as a separate <div>. As a rough rule of thumb, if there is a title accompanying the division, use the <div> element; otherwise, use lg.

Each line of verse should be encoded with the l element, and care should be taken to distinguish these logical lines of verse from lines motivated by page layout. The latter should be encoded as lbs. Thus
AS virtuous men pass mildly away, And whisper to their souls to go, Whilst some of their sad friends do say, "Now his breath goes," and some say, "No." 
should be encoded as
<lg type="stanza">
 <l>AS virtuous men pass mildly away,</l>
 <l rend="indent(1)">And whisper to their souls to<lb/> go,</l>
 <l>Whilst some of their sad friends<lb/> do say,</l>
 <l rend="indent(1)">"Now his breath goes," and<lb/> some say, "No."</l>
</lg>
Also, as in the example above, use the rend attribute to mark when a line is indented more than its siblings. Use ‘numbered’ indent values (e.g. ‘indent(1)’, ‘indent(2)’, etc.) to make clear levels of indentation.

4.3 Drama

The standard TEI elements for drama should be used: sp, stage, speaker. If the who attribute is used on sp, also transcribe who is given as the speaker, in whatever form it is written, in the speaker element. Short pieces of stage direction that accompany the speaker designation may be included in the speaker element.

Scenes and acts should be encoded as appropriately nested <div> elements with type attributes of scene or act, respectively. Cast lists can likewise be encoded using <div> and type="castlist".

Prologues and epilogues can be treated as sps of their own, unless their structure would be better represented by nested <div> elements.

4.4 Newspapers

Tite includes the elements colShift and cb which are well suited for the multi-column layout of newspapers. Additional relevant elements are: ref, to encode a pointer to the continuation of a story in a different column or on a different page; and figure, to describe illustrations, advertisements, and cartoons.

5 Block-level Features

5.1 Block Quotations

Use the q element to encode block quotations. A block quotation is indicated by its being set off from surrounding text either with extra line-spacing or margins or with a different typeface. If the quotation is of an entire text, use the floatingText element and its children inside the q element:
<div1 type="intro">
 <p>
<!-- ... -->
 </p>
 <q>
  <floatingText>
   <body>
    <lg type="poem">
<!-- poem -->
    </lg>
   </body>
  </floatingText>
 </q>
 <p>
<!-- ... -->
 </p>
</div1>

If present, transcribe all quotation marks or other delimiters inside the q element.

5.2 Figures

Use the figure element to encode figures. If a figure has a heading or caption, encode it with the head element. If there is associated text, simply use a p to encode it.

5.3 Tables and Lists

Tables and lists are encoded as in the TEI Guidelines, but note the following.

If a cell in a table is a heading or a label, set the role attribute to label; if the cell contains data, there is no need to use role: data is the default. If a cell or row spans more than one column or row, use the rows or cols attributes set to the number of columns or rows that it spans.

If unsure about whether a structure is best encoded as a list or table, record it as a table only if it would not be properly understood without tabular layout.

Lists should be encoded as either sequences of <items> or label-item pairs. When items in the list contain a label, as in a gloss list, be sure to use the latter form.

5.4 Notes

Both the reference to the note in the running text and the note itself must be encoded. Use ptr or ref to encode the reference. If there is no reference in the text (often the case for marginal notes), supply a ptr element in a reasonable place in the text running beside the note. If there is a reference (number, symbol, etc.), use the ref element and include the reference text as the content. In both cases, a target attribute must be supplied which contains the xml:id value of the associated note.

When encoding the note itself with the note element, the xml:id and place attributes must be supplied. See the TEI documentation for acceptable values for place; the most common will be foot, end, margin-left (-right, -top, -bot).

Transcribe the note directly after it is referenced in the document. In the case of notes without explicit reference (pointed to with ptr), set the anchored attribute to false.

5.5 ‘divWrapper’ Elements

Elements that can appear at the beginning and end of structural divisions, such as argument, epigraph, and opener, are called ‘divWrapper’ elements in the TEI class system. An argument is a summary of what is to come; be sure to distinguish this from a heading, which is a title for the division. If an epigraph comes with bibliographic or simple citation material, encode this as well. For example:
<epigraph>
 <cit>
  <q>"I have sworn upon the altar of God eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over
     the mind of man."</q>
  <bibl>
   <author>Thomas Jefferson.</author>
  </bibl>
 </cit>
</epigraph>

5.6 Uncertain Blocks

In rare cases where the logical identity of a block-level element is hard to discern, use the TEI element ab (anonymous block) instead of applying a p or <div> element. In these cases, be sure to document this decision in accompanying notes. Applying this element should be viewed as a last resort.

The gap element should be used when for some reason the document being transcribed contains illegible text (smudged, torn, missing, etc.) or something outside the scope of transcription for a given project: characters in an unsupported character set, for instance. gap indicates that something is omitted. When using gap, set the reason attribute to an appropriate value. (See <unclear> below.)

6 Phrase-level Features

6.1 Typographical Changes

There are six elements in Tite that capture specific typographical features:

b
for bold-face glyphs
i
for italicized glyphs
ul
for underlined glyphs
smcap
for glyphs in small-caps
sub
for glyphs in subscript
sup
for glyphs in superscript

These mark the physical change, and are agnostic about a logical motivation for it. There are two exceptions to this approach, however: marking foreign words and titles. In the case of foreign words, use the foreign element; in the case of titles, use the title element only if certain that the word or phrase in question is a title. If a phrase is, say, italicized, but you are uncertain about its being a title, use the i element instead. Foreign words should be marked only if they are typographically distinguished from surrounding text.

In addition, the <handshift> element may be used within the body of a transcription to indicate where a change of hand is detected for whatever reason.

If there is a typographical feature not covered by the above elements, the TEI hi element is still available in Tite. Use it without a rend attribute.

6.2 Phrase-level Quotation

For passages set off by quotation marks or another delimeter, use the q element, including the delimeter inside the tag.

6.3 Alignment and Indentation

If the alignment of an element seems remarkable, set the element's rend attribute to an appropriate value (normally center, right, left, etc.). However, when semantic already accounts for its cause, description of alignment is not necessary. Headings, for instance, do not need to be marked as being centered.

To indicate level of indentation (often in verse), use numerical ‘arguments’ to ‘indent’, as in indent(1), indent(-1), and so on.

6.4 Uncertain Segments

The seg element is the phrase-level analogue to the ab element. If a phrase-level feature seems to be present but its identity is hard to fathom, use this element. This, again, is a last resort.

Alternately, when a passage of text is for some reason too hard to read, use the unclear element, setting the reason attribute to an appropriate value. When using unclear, surround the entire word with the tag if any part of it is unclear (not just the illegible letter, say).

6.5 Unknown Glyphs

For cases in which it is unknown which character a given glyph corresponds to, mark the glyph with the g element to indicate the uncertainty. By convention in Tite, g represents any unknown glyph; no ref attribute is necessary. Note that unknown glyphs are different from illegible text.

7 Reference Systems

Encode page breaks (pb) at the start of each page, and encode breaks even for blank pages. If the page is numbered, include the page number as the value of the n attribute and, again, no matter where the page number is printed on the page, place the pb element at the ‘top.’

If marking column breaks, follow the same rules as for page breaks. Column breaks are imagined to appear at the top of the column, at the beginning of the column's text. The colShift element exists to record a change in columnar layout. If such a change occurs, mark the beginning of the new layout with colShift and supply the new number of columns as the value for the n attribute.

For many applications, it will not be important to capture line breaks in ordinary prose text, but in cases where they are purposeful (such as the layout of acrostics, or where a word is broken across a line), they should be captured using the lb element, placing it at the start of each line.

Appendices

Appendix A TEI Tite and the Best Practices for TEI in Libraries

The Best Practices for TEI in Libraries ("BP") creates common definitions of ‘levels of encoding’ based on depth of markup applied. Because the levels of encoding provide a tremendously useful common set of terms, it's helpful to situate TEI Tite according to them.

Mapped to BP levels, TEI Tite would sit between Level 3 and Level 4: it requires use of all the elements from Level 3 plus additional ones, but requires fewer elements than Level 4. Relative to Level 3, ‘Simple Analysis,’ Tite

The most useful comparison for Tite is to Level 4 (‘Basic Content Analysis’), provides the most useful comparison. The folowing items represent instances where Tite is less ambitious than Level 4:

Bringing Tite-encoded documents up to BP Level 4 would simply require application of additional markup, not significant reworking of markup, and in that way Tite is compatible with the BP.

Do also keep in mind that Tite lacks both the <teiHeader> and root <TEI> element used in TEI-conformant documents.

This element should be used for postal addresses only. Within it, the generic element addrLine may be used as an alternative to any of the more specialized elements available from the model.addrPart class, such as <street>, <postCode> etc.

Note

Particularly where cataloguing is likely to be based on the content of the header, it is advisable to use a generally recognized name authority file to supply the content for this element. The attributes key or ref may also be used to reference canonical information about the author(s) intended from any appropriate authority, such as a library catalogue or online resource.

In the case of a broadcast, use this element for the name of the company or network responsible for making the broadcast.

Where an author is unknown or unspecified, this element may contain text such as Unknown or Anonymous. When the appropriate TEI modules are in use, it may also contain detailed tagging of the names used for people, organizations or places, in particular where multiple names are given.

<del>

<del> (deletion) contains a letter, word, or passage deleted, marked as deleted, or otherwise indicated as superfluous or spurious in the copy text by an author, scribe, or a previous annotator or corrector. [3.5.3. Additions, Deletions, and Omissions]
Modulecore
Attributes

Contained by
May contain
Note

This element should be used for deletion of shorter sequences of text, typically single words or phrases. The <delSpan> element should be used for longer sequences of text, for those containing structural subdivisions, and for those containing overlapping additions and deletions.

The text deleted must be at least partially legible in order for the encoder to be able to transcribe it (unless it is restored in a <supplied> tag). Illegible or lost text within a deletion may be marked using the gap tag to signal that text is present but has not been transcribed, or is no longer visible. Attributes on the gap element may be used to indicate how much text is omitted, the reason for omitting it, etc. If text is not fully legible, the unclear element (available when using the additional tagset for transcription of primary sources) should be used to signal the areas of text which cannot be read with confidence in a similar way.

Degrees of uncertainty over what can still be read, or whether a deletion was intended may be indicated by use of the <certainty> element (see 22. Certainty, Precision, and Responsibility).

There is a clear distinction in the TEI between del and <surplus> on the one hand and gap or unclear on the other. del indicates a deletion present in the source being transcribed, which states the author's or a later scribe's intent to cancel or remove text. <surplus> indicates material present in the source being transcribed which should have been so deleted, but which is not in fact. gap or unclear, by contrast, signal an editor's or encoder's decision to omit something or their inability to read the source text. See sections 12.3.1.7. Text Omitted from or Supplied in the Transcription and 12.3.3.2. Use of the gap, del, damage, unclear, and supplied Elements in Combination for the relationship between these and other related elements used in detailed transcription.

SchematronA desc with a type of deprecationInfo should only occur when its parent element is being deprecated. Furthermore, it should always occur in an element that is being deprecated when desc is a valid child of that element.

The document author's name often occurs within a byline, but the docAuthor element may be used whether the byline element is used or not. It should be used only for the author(s) of the entire document, not for author(s) of any subset or part of it. (Attributions of authorship of a subset or part of the document, for example of a chapter in a textbook or an article in a newspaper, may be encoded with byline without docAuthor.)

The global xml:lang attribute should be supplied for this element to identify the language of the word or phrase marked. As elsewhere, its value should be a language tag as defined in 6.1. Language Identification.

This element is intended for use only where no other element is available to mark the phrase or words concerned. The global xml:lang attribute should be used in preference to this element where it is intended to mark the language of the whole of some text element.

The <distinct> element may be used to identify phrases belonging to sublanguages or registers not generally regarded as true languages.

       five additional questions. Obesity was defined, using physical
       measurements, as body mass index (calculated as kg/m2) greater than
       or equal to the age- and sex-specific 95th percentile of the Centers
       for Disease Control and Prevention growth charts. Logistic
       regressions adjusted for sex, race/ethnic group, poverty level, and
       survey year were conducted to describe associations between obesity
       and food insecurity.</p>
  </div>
  <div>
   <head> RESULTS:</head>
   <p>Obesity was significantly associated with personal food insecurity
       for children aged 6 to 11 years (odds ratio=1.81; 95% CI 1.33 to
       2.48), but not in children aged 2 to 5 years (odds ratio=0.88; 95%
       CI 0.51 to 1.51). Child-level food insecurity was not associated
       with obesity among 2- to 5-year-olds or 6- to 11-year-olds.</p>
  </div>
  <div>
   <head> CONCLUSIONS:</head>
   <p>Personal food insecurity is associated with an increased risk of
       obesity only in children aged 6 to 11 years. Personal
       food-insecurity measures may give different results than aggregate
       food-insecurity measures in children.</p>

The gap, unclear, and del core tag elements may be closely allied in use with the <damage> and <supplied> elements, available when using the additional tagset for transcription of primary sources. See section 12.3.3.2. Use of the gap, del, damage, unclear, and supplied Elements in Combination for discussion of which element is appropriate for which circumstance.

The gap tag simply signals the editors decision to omit or inability to transcribe a span of text. Other information, such as the interpretation that text was deliberately erased or covered, should be indicated using the relevant tags, such as del in the case of deliberate deletion.

The handShift element may be used either to denote a shift in the document hand (as from one scribe to another, on one writing style to another). Or, it may indicate a shift within a document hand, as a change of writing style, character or ink.

<head> (heading) contains any type of heading, for example the title of a section, or the heading of a list, glossary, manuscript description, etc. [4.2.1. Headings and Trailers]
Modulecore
Attributes
Member of
Contained by
May contain
Note

The head element is used for headings at all levels; software which treats (e.g.) chapter headings, section headings, and list titles differently must determine the proper processing of a head element based on its structural position. A head occurring as the first element of a list is the title of that list; one occurring as the first element of a div1 is the title of that chapter or section.

Example

The most common use for the head element is to mark the headings of sections. In older writings, the headings or incipits may be rather longer than usual in modern works. If a section has an explicit ending as well as a heading, it should be marked as a trailer, as in this example:

<div1 n="Itype="book">
 <head>In the name of Christ here begins the first book of the ecclesiastical history of
   Georgius Florentinus, known as Gregory, Bishop of Tours.</head>
 <div2 type="section">
  <head>In the name of Christ here begins Book I of the history.</head>
  <p>Proposing as I do ...</p>
  <p>From the Passion of our Lord until the death of Saint Martin four hundred and twelve
     years passed.</p>
  <trailer>Here ends the first Book, which covers five thousand, five hundred and ninety-six
     years from the beginning of the world down to the death of Saint Martin.</trailer>
 </div2>
</div1>
Example

When headings are not inline with the running text (see e.g. the heading "Secunda conclusio") they might however be encoded as if. The actual placement in the source document can be captured with the place attribute.

<div type="subsection">
 <head place="margin">Secunda conclusio</head>
 <p>
  <lb n="1251"/>
  <hi rend="large">Potencia: habitus: et actus: recipiunt speciem ab obiectis<supplied>.</supplied>
  </hi>
  <lb n="1252"/>Probatur sic. Omne importans necessariam habitudinem ad proprium
   [...]
 </p>
</div>
Example

The head element is also used to mark headings of other units, such as lists:

With a few exceptions, connectives are equally
useful in all kinds of discourse: description, narration, exposition, argument. <list rend="bulleted">
 <head>Connectives</head>
 <item>above</item>

Example

Labels may also be used to record explicitly the numbers or letters which mark list items in ordered lists, as in this extract from Gibbon's Autobiography. In this usage the label element is synonymous with the n attribute on the item element:

I will add two facts, which have seldom occurred
in the composition of six, or at least of five quartos. <list rend="runontype="ordered">
 <label>(1)</label>
 <item>My first rough manuscript, without any intermediate copy, has been sent to the press.</item>
 <label>(2) </label>
 <item>Not a sheet has been seen by any human eyes, excepting those of the author and the
   printer: the faults and the merits are exclusively my own.</item>
</list>
Example

Labels may also be used for other structured list items, as in this extract from the journal of Edward Gibbon:

<list type="gloss">
 <label>March 1757.</label>
 <item>I wrote some critical observations upon Plautus.</item>
 <label>March 8th.</label>
 <item>I wrote a long dissertation upon some lines of Virgil.</item>
 <label>June.</label>
 <item>I saw Mademoiselle Curchod — <quote xml:lang="la">Omnia vincit amor, et nos cedamus
     amori.</quote>
 </item>
 <label>August.</label>
 <item>I went to Crassy, and staid two days.</item>
</list>

Note that the label might also appear within the item rather than as its sibling. Though syntactically valid, this usage is not recommended TEI practice.

Example

Labels may also be used to represent a label or heading attached to a paragraph or sequence of paragraphs not treated as a structural division, or to a group of verse lines. Note that, in this case, the label element appears within the p or lg element, rather than as a preceding sibling of it.

<p>[...]
<lb/>&amp; n’entrer en mauuais &amp; mal-heu-
<lb/>ré meſnage. Or des que le conſente-
<lb/>ment des parties y eſt le mariage eſt
<lb/> arreſté, quoy que de faict il ne ſoit

<lb/>ue ou enfant de famille : car en ce
<lb/> cas, la femme, qui a eſpouſé vn en-
<lb/>fant de famille, eſt ſous la puiſſance
[...]</p>

In this example the text of the label appears in the right hand margin of the original source, next to the paragraph it describes, but approximately in the middle of it.

If so desired the type attribute may be used to distinguish different categories of label.

By convention, lb elements should appear at the point in the text where a new line starts. The n attribute, if used, indicates the number or other value associated with the text between this point and the next lb element, typically the sequence number of the line within the page, or other appropriate unit. This element is intended to be used for marking actual line breaks on a manuscript or printed page, at the point where they occur; it should not be used to tag structural units such as lines of verse (for which the l element is available) except in circumstances where structural units cannot otherwise be marked.

The type attribute may be used to characterize the line break in any respect. The more specialized attributes break, ed, or edRef should be preferred when the intent is to indicate whether or not the line break is word-breaking, or to note the source from which it derives.

Example

This example shows typographical line breaks within metrical lines, where they occur at different places in different editions:

<l>Of Mans First Disobedience,<lb ed="1674"/> and<lb ed="1667"/> the Fruit</l>
<l>Of that Forbidden Tree, whose<lb ed="1667 1674"/> mortal tast</l>
<l>Brought Death into the World,<lb ed="1667"/> and all<lb ed="1674"/> our woe,</l>
Example

This example encodes typographical line breaks as a means of preserving the visual appearance of a title page. The break attribute is used to show that the line break does not (as elsewhere) mark the start of a new word.

 <lb/>With Additions, ne-<lb break="no"/>ver before Printed.

<list>

<list> (list) contains any sequence of items organized as a list. [3.8. Lists]
Modulecore
Attributes
type(type) describes the nature of the items in the list.
Derived fromatt.typed
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.enumerated
Suggested values include:
gloss
(gloss) each list item glosses some term or concept, which is given by a label element preceding the list item.
index
(index) each list item is an entry in an index such as the alphabetical topical index at the back of a print volume.
instructions
(instructions) each list item is a step in a sequence of instructions, as in a recipe.
litany
(litany) each list item is one of a sequence of petitions, supplications or invocations, typically in a religious ritual.
syllogism
(syllogism) each list item is part of an argument consisting of two or more propositions and a final conclusion derived from them.
Note

Previous versions of these Guidelines recommended the use of type on list to encode the rendering or appearance of a list (whether it was bulleted, numbered, etc.). The current recommendation is to use the rend or style attributes for these aspects of a list, while using type for the more appropriate task of characterizing the nature of the content of a list.

The formal syntax of the element declarations allows label tags to be omitted from lists tagged <list type="gloss">; this is however a semantic error.

Example

The following example treats the short numbered clauses of Anglo-Saxon legal codes as lists of items. The text is from an ordinance of King Athelstan (924–939):

<div1 type="section">
 <head>Athelstan's Ordinance</head>
 <list rend="numbered">
  <item n="1">Concerning thieves. First, that no thief is to be spared who is caught with
     the stolen goods, [if he is] over twelve years and [if the value of the goods is] over
     eightpence.
  <list rend="numbered">
    <item n="1.1">And if anyone does spare one, he is to pay for the thief with his
         wergild — and the thief is to be no nearer a settlement on that account — or to
         clear himself by an oath of that amount.</item>
    <item n="1.2">If, however, he [the thief] wishes to defend himself or to escape, he is
         not to be spared [whether younger or older than twelve].</item>
    <item n="1.3">If a thief is put into prison, he is to be in prison 40 days, and he may
         then be redeemed with 120 shillings; and the kindred are to stand surety for him
         that he will desist for ever.</item>
    <item n="1.4">And if he steals after that, they are to pay for him with his wergild,
         or to bring him back there.</item>
    <item n="1.5">And if he steals after that, they are to pay for him with his wergild,
         whether to the king or to him to whom it rightly belongs; and everyone of those who
         supported him is to pay 120 shillings to the king as a fine.</item>
   </list>
  </item>
  <item n="2">Concerning lordless men. And we pronounced about these lordless men, from whom
     no justice can be obtained, that one should order their kindred to fetch back such a
     person to justice and to find him a lord in public meeting.
  <list rend="numbered">
    <item n="2.1">And if they then will not, or cannot, produce him on that appointed day,
         he is then to be a fugitive afterwards, and he who encounters him is to strike him
         down as a thief.</item>
    <item n="2.2">And he who harbours him after that, is to pay for him with his wergild
         or to clear himself by an oath of that amount.</item>
   </list>
  </item>
  <item n="3">Concerning the refusal of justice. The lord who refuses justice and upholds
     his guilty man, so that the king is appealed to, is to repay the value of the goods and
     120 shillings to the king; and he who appeals to the king before he demands justice as
     often as he ought, is to pay the same fine as the other would have done, if he had
     refused him justice.
  <list rend="numbered">
    <item n="3.1">And the lord who is an accessory to a theft by his slave, and it becomes
         known about him, is to forfeit the slave and be liable to his wergild on the first
         occasionp if he does it more often, he is to be liable to pay all that he owns.</item>
    <item n="3.2">And likewise any of the king's treasurers or of our reeves, who has been
         an accessory of thieves who have committed theft, is to liable to the same.</item>
   </list>
  </item>
  <item n="4">Concerning treachery to a lord. And we have pronounced concerning treachery to
     a lord, that he [who is accused] is to forfeit his life if he cannot deny it or is
     afterwards convicted at the three-fold ordeal.</item>
 </list>
</div1>

Note that nested lists have been used so the tagging mirrors the structure indicated by the two-level numbering of the clauses. The clauses could have been treated as a one-level list with irregular numbering, if desired.

Example
<p>These decrees, most blessed Pope Hadrian, we propounded in the public council ... and they
confirmed them in our hand in your stead with the sign of the Holy Cross, and afterwards
inscribed with a careful pen on the paper of this page, affixing thus the sign of the Holy
Cross.

In the following example, the translator has supplied a footnote containing an explanation of the term translated as "painterly":

And yet it is not only
in the great line of Italian renaissance art, but even in the
painterly <note place="bottomtype="gloss"
 resp="#MDMH">

 <term xml:lang="de">Malerisch</term>. This word has, in the German, two
distinct meanings, one objective, a quality residing in the object,
the other subjective, a mode of apprehension and creation. To avoid
confusion, they have been distinguished in English as
<mentioned>picturesque</mentioned> and
<mentioned>painterly</mentioned> respectively.
</note> style of the

psychological significance.

<respStmt xml:id="MDMH">

For this example to be valid, the code MDMH must be defined elsewhere, for example by means of a responsibility statement in the associated TEI header.

Example

The global n attribute may be used to supply the symbol or number used to mark the note's point of attachment in the source text, as in the following example:

Mevorakh b. Saadya's mother, the matriarch of the
family during the second half of the eleventh century, <note n="126anchored="true"> The
alleged mention of Judah Nagid's mother in a letter from 1071 is, in fact, a reference to
Judah's children; cf. above, nn. 111 and 54. </note> is well known from Geniza documents
published by Jacob Mann.

However, if notes are numbered in sequence and their numbering can be reconstructed automatically by processing software, it may well be considered unnecessary to record the note numbers.

May containEmpty element
Note

A pb element should appear at the start of the page which it identifies. The global n attribute indicates the number or other value associated with this page. This will normally be the page number or signature printed on it, since the physical sequence number is implicit in the presence of the pb element itself.

The type attribute may be used to characterize the page break in any respect. The more specialized attributes break, ed, or edRef should be preferred when the intent is to indicate whether or not the page break is word-breaking, or to note the source from which it derives.

Example

Page numbers may vary in different editions of a text.

<p> ... <pb n="145ed="ed2"/>
<!-- Page 145 in edition "ed2" starts here --> ... <pb n="283ed="ed1"/>
<!-- Page 283 in edition "ed1" starts here--> ... </p>
Example

A page break may be associated with a facsimile image of the page it introduces by means of the facs attribute

<body>
 <pb n="1facs="page1.png"/>
<!-- page1.png contains an image of the page; the text it contains is encoded here -->
 <p>

alt
(alternate) alternate title, often in another language, by which the work is also known
short
abbreviated form of title
desc
(descriptive) descriptive paraphrase of the work functioning as a title
Note

This attribute is provided for convenience in analysing titles and processing them according to their type; where such specialized processing is not necessary, there is no need for such analysis, and the entire title, including subtitles and any parallel titles, may be enclosed within a single title element.

</sch:rule>
levelindicates the bibliographic level for a title, that is, whether it identifies an article, book, journal, series, or unpublished material.
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.enumerated
Legal values are:
a
(analytic) the title applies to an analytic item, such as an article, poem, or other work published as part of a larger item.
m
(monographic) the title applies to a monograph such as a book or other item considered to be a distinct publication, including single volumes of multi-volume works
j
(journal) the title applies to any serial or periodical publication such as a journal, magazine, or newspaper
s
(series) the title applies to a series of otherwise distinct publications such as a collection
u
(unpublished) the title applies to any unpublished material (including theses and dissertations unless published by a commercial press)
Note

The level of a title is sometimes implied by its context: for example, a title appearing directly within an <analytic> element is ipso facto of level ‘a’, and one appearing within a <series> element of level ‘s’. For this reason, the level attribute is not required in contexts where its value can be unambiguously inferred. Where it is supplied in such contexts, its value should not contradict the value implied by its parent element.

The attributes key and ref, inherited from the class att.canonical may be used to indicate the canonical form for the title; the former, by supplying (for example) the identifier of a record in some external library system; the latter by pointing to an XML element somewhere containing the canonical form of the title.

Example
<title>Information Technology and the Research Process: Proceedings of
a conference held at Cranfield Institute of Technology, UK,

Note

Note that the calendar attribute declares the calendar system used to interpret the textual content of an element, as it appears on an original source. It does not modify the interpretation of the normalization attributes provided by att.datable.w3c, att.datable.iso, or att.datable.custom. Attributes from those first two classes are always interpreted as Gregorian or proleptic Gregorian dates, as per the respective standards on which they are based. The calender system used to interpret the last (att.datable.custom) may be specified with datingMethod.

Moduletei
Membersauthor date docDate editor name resp time title
Attributes
Note

This ‘superclass’ provides attributes that can be used to provide normalized values of temporal information. By default, the attributes from the att.datable.w3c class are provided. If the module for names & dates is loaded, this class also provides attributes from the att.datable.iso and att.datable.custom classes. In general, the possible values of attributes restricted to the W3C datatypes form a subset of those values available via the ISO 8601 standard. However, the greater expressiveness of the ISO datatypes may not be needed, and there exists much greater software support for the W3C datatypes.

Note

The value of these attributes should be a normalized representation of the date, time, or combined date & time intended, in any of the standard formats specified by XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes Second Edition, using the Gregorian calendar.

The most commonly-encountered format for the date portion of a temporal attribute is yyyy-mm-dd, but yyyy, --mm, ---dd, yyyy-mm, or --mm-dd may also be used. For the time part, the form hh:mm:ss is used.

Note that this format does not currently permit use of the value 0000 to represent the year 1 BCE; instead the value -0001 should be used.

att.declarable

att.declarable provides attributes for those elements in the TEI header which may be independently selected by means of the special purpose decls attribute. [16.3. Associating Contextual Information with a Text]

Note

The rules governing the association of declarable elements with individual parts of a TEI text are fully defined in chapter 16.3. Associating Contextual Information with a Text. Only one element of a particular type may have a default attribute with a value of true.

Attributes
xml:id(identifier) provides a unique identifier for the element bearing the attribute.
Status Optional
Datatype ID
Note

The xml:id attribute may be used to specify a canonical reference for an element; see section 3.11. Reference Systems.

n(number) gives a number (or other label) for an element, which is not necessarily unique within the document.
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.text
Note

The value of this attribute is always understood to be a single token, even if it contains space or other punctuation characters, and need not be composed of numbers only. It is typically used to specify the numbering of chapters, sections, list items, etc.; it may also be used in the specification of a standard reference system for the text.

xml:lang(language) indicates the language of the element content using a ‘tag’ generated according to BCP 47.
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.language
<p> … The consequences of
this rapid depopulation were the loss of the last
<foreign xml:lang="rap">ariki</foreign> or chief
(Routledge 1920:205,210) and their connections to
ancestral territorial organization.</p>
Note

The xml:lang value will be inherited from the immediately enclosing element, or from its parent, and so on up the document hierarchy. It is generally good practice to specify xml:lang at the highest appropriate level, noticing that a different default may be needed for the <teiHeader> from that needed for the associated resource element or elements, and that a single TEI document may contain texts in many languages.

Only attributes with free text values (rare in these guidelines) will be in the scope of xml:lang.

The authoritative list of registered language subtags is maintained by IANA and is available at https://www.iana.org/assignments/language-subtag-registry. For a good general overview of the construction of language tags, see https://www.w3.org/International/articles/language-tags/, and for a practical step-by-step guide, see https://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-choosing-language-tags.en.php.

The value used must conform with BCP 47. If the value is a private use code (i.e., starts with x- or contains -x-), a <language> element with a matching value for its ident attribute should be supplied in the TEI header to document this value. Such documentation may also optionally be supplied for non-private-use codes, though these must remain consistent with their (IETF)Internet Engineering Task Force definitions.

xml:spacesignals an intention about how white space should be managed by applications.
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.enumerated
Legal values are:
default
signals that the application's default white-space processing modes are acceptable
preserve
indicates the intent that applications preserve all white space
Note

The XML specification provides further guidance on the use of this attribute. Note that many parsers may not handle xml:space correctly.

</group>

In this example a group contains two texts, each containing the same document in a different language. The correspondence is indicated using corresp. The language is indicated using xml:lang, whose value is inherited; both the tag with the corresp and the tag pointed to by the corresp inherit the value from their immediate parent.

 <note>
  <p>Personification of London’s genius. Appears as an

  </p>
 </note>
</person>

In this example, a <place> element containing information about the city of London is linked with two <person> elements in a literary personography. This correspondence represents a slightly looser relationship than the one in the preceding example; there is no sense in which an allegorical character could be substituted for the physical city, or vice versa, but there is obviously a correspondence between them.

 <lb/>To The <lb/>Duchesse <lb/>of <lb/>Newcastle,
<lb/>On Her <lb/>
 <hi rend="case(mixed)">New Blazing-World</hi>.
</head>
Note

These Guidelines make no binding recommendations for the values of the rend attribute; the characteristics of visual presentation vary too much from text to text and the decision to record or ignore individual characteristics varies too much from project to project. Some potentially useful conventions are noted from time to time at appropriate points in the Guidelines. The values of the rend attribute are a set of sequence-indeterminate individual tokens separated by whitespace.

stylecontains an expression in some formal style definition language which defines the rendering or presentation used for this element in the source text
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.text
<head style="text-align: center; font-variant: small-caps">
 <lb/>To The <lb/>Duchesse <lb/>of <lb/>Newcastle, <lb/>On Her
<lb/>
 <hi style="font-variant: normal">New Blazing-World</hi>.
</head>
Note

Unlike the attribute values of rend, which uses whitespace as a separator, the style attribute may contain whitespace. This attribute is intended for recording inline stylistic information concerning the source, not any particular output.

The formal language in which values for this attribute are expressed may be specified using the <styleDefDecl> element in the TEI header.

If style and rendition are both present on an element, then style overrides or complements rendition. style should not be used in conjunction with rend, because the latter does not employ a formal style definition language.

Status Optional
Datatype teidata.probCert
resp(responsible party) indicates the agency responsible for the intervention or interpretation, for example an editor or transcriber.
Status Optional
Datatype 1–∞ occurrences of teidata.pointer separated by whitespace
Note

To reduce the ambiguity of a resp pointing directly to a person or organization, we recommend that resp be used to point not to an agent (<person> or <org>) but to a respStmt, author, editor or similar element which clarifies the exact role played by the agent. Pointing to multiple respStmts allows the encoder to specify clearly each of the roles played in part of a TEI file (creating, transcribing, encoding, editing, proofing etc.).

<sch:report test="( self::tei:classRef | self::tei:dataRef | self::tei:elementRef | self::tei:macroRef | self::tei:moduleRef | self::tei:schemaSpec ) and $srcs[2]"> When used on a schema description element (like
<sch:value-of select="name(.)"/>), the @source attribute
should have only 1 value. (This one has <sch:value-of select="count($srcs)"/>.)
</sch:report>
</sch:rule>
Note

The source attribute points to an external source. When used on an element describing a schema component (<classRef>, <dataRef>, <elementRef>, <macroRef>, <moduleRef>, or <schemaSpec>), it identifies the source from which declarations for the components should be obtained.

On other elements it provides a pointer to the bibliographical source from which a quotation or citation is drawn.

In either case, the location may be provided using any form of URI, for example an absolute URI, a relative URI, a private scheme URI of the form tei:x.y.z, where x.y.z indicates the version number, e.g. tei:4.3.2 for TEI P5 release 4.3.2 or (as a special case) tei:current for whatever is the latest release, or a private scheme URI that is expanded to an absolute URI as documented in a <prefixDef>.

When used on elements describing schema components, source should have only one value; when used on other elements multiple values are permitted.

Example
<p>
<!-- ... --> As Willard McCarty (<bibl xml:id="mcc_2012">2012, p.2</bibl>) tells us, <quote source="#mcc_2012">‘Collaboration’ is a problematic and should be a contested

att.milestoneUnit

att.milestoneUnit provides attributes to indicate the type of section which is changing at a specific milestone. [3.11.3. Milestone Elements 2.3.6.3. Milestone Method 2.3.6. The Reference System Declaration]
Modulecore
Membersmilestone
Attributes
unitprovides a conventional name for the kind of section changing at this milestone.
Status Required
Datatype teidata.enumerated
Suggested values include:
page
physical page breaks (synonymous with the pb element).
column
column breaks.
line
line breaks (synonymous with the lb element).
book
any units termed book, liber, etc.
poem
individual poems in a collection.
canto
cantos or other major sections of a poem.
speaker
changes of speaker or narrator.
stanza
stanzas within a poem, book, or canto.
act
acts within a play.
scene
scenes within a play or act.
section

unnumbered
passages present in the text, but not to be included as part of the reference.
<milestone n="23ed="Launit="Dreissiger"/>
... <milestone n="24ed="AVunit="verse"/> ...
Note

If the milestone marks the beginning of a piece of text not present in the reference edition, the special value absent may be used as the value of unit. The normal interpretation is that the reference edition does not contain the text which follows, until the next milestone tag for the edition in question is encountered.

In addition to the values suggested, other terms may be appropriate (e.g. Stephanus for the Stephanus numbers in Plato).

The type attribute may be used to characterize the unit boundary in any respect other than simply identifying the type of unit, for example as word-breaking or not.

att.pointing

att.pointing provides a set of attributes used by all elements which point to other elements by means of one or more URI references. [1.3.1.1.2. Language Indicators 3.7. Simple Links and Cross-References]
Moduletei
Membersnote ptr ref
Attributes
targetLangspecifies the language of the content to be found at the destination referenced by target, using a ‘language tag’ generated according to BCP 47.
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.language

</linkGrp>

In the example above, the <linkGrp> combines pointers at parallel fragments of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights: one of them is in Polish, the other in Swahili.

Note

The value must conform to BCP 47. If the value is a private use code (i.e., starts with x- or contains -x-), a <language> element with a matching value for its ident attribute should be supplied in the TEI header to document this value. Such documentation may also optionally be supplied for non-private-use codes, though these must remain consistent with their (IETF)Internet Engineering Task Force definitions.

targetspecifies the destination of the reference by supplying one or more URI References
Status Optional
Datatype 1–∞ occurrences of teidata.pointer separated by whitespace
Note

One or more syntactically valid URI references, separated by whitespace. Because whitespace is used to separate URIs, no whitespace is permitted inside a single URI. If a whitespace character is required in a URI, it should be escaped with the normal mechanism, e.g. TEI%20Consortium.

Status Required
Datatype teidata.pointer

att.sortable

att.sortable provides attributes for elements in lists or groups that are sortable, but whose sorting key cannot be derived mechanically from the element content. [10.1. Dictionary Body and Overall Structure]
Moduletei

Attributes
sortKeysupplies the sort key for this element in an index, list or group which contains it.

 <term sortKey="Azarya_Josiah_Kohen">Josiah ha-Kohen b. Azarya</term>
</index> b. Azarya, son of one of the last gaons of Sura was David's own first
cousin.
Note

The sort key is used to determine the sequence and grouping of entries in an index. It provides a sequence of characters which, when sorted with the other values, will produced the desired order; specifics of sort key construction are application-dependent

Dictionary order often differs from the collation sequence of machine-readable character sets; in English-language dictionaries, an entry for 4-H will often appear alphabetized under ‘fourh’, and McCoy may be alphabetized under ‘maccoy’, while A1, A4, and A5 may all appear in numeric order ‘alphabetized’ between ‘a-’ and ‘AA’. The sort key is required if the orthography of the dictionary entry does not suffice to determine its location.

att.tableDecoration

att.tableDecoration provides attributes used to decorate rows or cells of a table. [15. Tables, Formulæ, Graphics, and Notated Music]
Modulefigures
Memberscell row
Attributes
role(role) indicates the kind of information held in this cell or in each cell of this row.
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.enumerated
Suggested values include:

Note

When this attribute is specified on a row, its value is the default for all cells in this row. When specified on a cell, its value overrides any default specified by the role attribute of the parent row element.

rows(rows) indicates the number of rows occupied by this cell or row.
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.count
Default 1
Note

A value greater than one indicates that this cell spans several rows. Where several cells span multiple rows, it may be more convenient to use nested tables.

cols(columns) indicates the number of columns occupied by this cell or row.
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.count
Default 1
Note

A value greater than one indicates that this cell or row spans several columns. Where an initial cell spans an entire row, it may be better treated as a heading.

att.timed

att.timed provides attributes common to those elements which have a duration in time, expressed either absolutely or by reference to an alignment map. [8.3.5. Temporal Information]

Moduletei
Membersadd del
Attributes
statusindicates the effect of the intervention, for example in the case of a deletion, strikeouts which include too much or too little text, or in the case of an addition, an insertion which duplicates some of the text already present.
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.enumerated
Sample values include:
duplicate
all of the text indicated as an addition duplicates some text that is in the original, whether the duplication is word-for-word or less exact.
duplicate-partial
part of the text indicated as an addition duplicates some text that is in the original
excessStart
some text at the beginning of the deletion is marked as deleted even though it clearly should not be deleted.
excessEnd
some text at the end of the deletion is marked as deleted even though it clearly should not be deleted.
shortStart
some text at the beginning of the deletion is not marked as deleted even though it clearly should be.
shortEnd
some text at the end of the deletion is not marked as deleted even though it clearly should be.
partial
some text in the deletion is not marked as deleted even though it clearly should be.
unremarkable
the deletion is not faulty. [Default]
Note

Status information on each deletion is needed rather rarely except in critical editions from authorial manuscripts; status information on additions is even less common.

Marking a deletion or addition as faulty is inescapably an interpretive act; the usual test applied in practice is the linguistic acceptability of the text with and without the letters or words in question.

Note

A duration is expressed as a sequence of number-letter pairs, preceded by the letter P; the letter gives the unit and may be Y (year), M (month), D (day), H (hour), M (minute), or S (second), in that order. The numbers are all unsigned integers, except for the last, which may have a decimal component (using either . or , as the decimal point; the latter is preferred). If any number is 0, then that number-letter pair may be omitted. If any of the H (hour), M (minute), or S (second) number-letter pairs are present, then the separator T must precede the first ‘time’ number-letter pair.

Declaration
teidata.language = xsd:language | ( "" )
Note

The values for this attribute are language ‘tags’ as defined in BCP 47. Currently BCP 47 comprises RFC 5646 and RFC 4647; over time, other IETF documents may succeed these as the best current practice.

A ‘language tag’, per BCP 47, is assembled from a sequence of components or subtags separated by the hyphen character (-, U+002D). The tag is made of the following subtags, in the following order. Every subtag except the first is optional. If present, each occurs only once, except the fourth and fifth components (variant and extension), which are repeatable.

language
The IANA-registered code for the language. This is almost always the same as the ISO 639 2-letter language code if there is one. The list of available registered language subtags can be found at https://www.iana.org/assignments/language-subtag-registry. It is recommended that this code be written in lower case.
script
The ISO 15924 code for the script. These codes consist of 4 letters, and it is recommended they be written with an initial capital, the other three letters in lower case. The canonical list of codes is maintained by the Unicode Consortium, and is available at https://unicode.org/iso15924/iso15924-codes.html. The IETF recommends this code be omitted unless it is necessary to make a distinction you need.
region
Either an ISO 3166 country code or a UN M.49 region code that is registered with IANA (not all such codes are registered, e.g. UN codes for economic groupings or codes for countries for which there is already an ISO 3166 2-letter code are not registered). The former consist of 2 letters, and it is recommended they be written in upper case; the list of codes can be searched or browsed at https://www.iso.org/obp/ui/#search/code/. The latter consist of 3 digits; the list of codes can be found at http://unstats.un.org/unsd/methods/m49/m49.htm.
variant
An IANA-registered variation. These codes ‘are used to indicate additional, well-recognized variations that define a language or its dialects that are not covered by other available subtags’.
extension
An extension has the format of a single letter followed by a hyphen followed by additional subtags. These exist to allow for future extension to BCP 47, but as of this writing no such extensions are in use.
private use
An extension that uses the initial subtag of the single letter x (i.e., starts with x-) has no meaning except as negotiated among the parties involved. These should be used with great care, since they interfere with the interoperability that use of RFC 4646 is intended to promote. In order for a document that makes use of these subtags to be TEI-conformant, a corresponding <language> element must be present in the TEI header.

There are two exceptions to the above format. First, there are language tags in the IANA registry that do not match the above syntax, but are present because they have been ‘grandfathered’ from previous specifications.

Second, an entire language tag can consist of only a private use subtag. These tags start with x-, and do not need to follow any further rules established by the IETF and endorsed by these Guidelines. Like all language tags that make use of private use subtags, the language in question must be documented in a corresponding <language> element in the TEI header.

</content>
Declaration
teidata.numeric =
   xsd:double | token { pattern = "(\-?[\d]+/\-?[\d]+)" } | xsd:decimal
Note

Any numeric value, represented as a decimal number, in floating point format, or as a ratio.

To represent a floating point number, expressed in scientific notation, ‘E notation’, a variant of ‘exponential notation’, may be used. In this format, the value is expressed as two numbers separated by the letter E. The first number, the significand (sometimes called the mantissa) is given in decimal format, while the second is an integer. The value is obtained by multiplying the mantissa by 10 the number of times indicated by the integer. Thus the value represented in decimal notation as 1000.0 might be represented in scientific notation as 10E3.

A value expressed as a ratio is represented by two integer values separated by a solidus (/) character. Thus, the value represented in decimal notation as 0.5 might be represented as a ratio by the string 1/2.

Note

A point is defined by two numeric values, which should be expressed as decimal numbers. Neither number can end in a decimal point. E.g., both 0.0,84.2 and 0,84 are allowed, but 0.,84. is not.

teidata.pointer

teidata.pointer defines the range of attribute values used to provide a single URI, absolute or relative, pointing to some other resource, either within the current document or elsewhere.
Moduletei
Used by
Element:
Content model
<content>
 <dataRef restriction="\S+name="anyURI"/>
</content>
Declaration
teidata.pointer = xsd:anyURI { pattern = "\S+" }
Note

The range of syntactically valid values is defined by RFC 3986 Uniform Resource Identifier (URI): Generic Syntax. Note that the values themselves are encoded using RFC 3987 Internationalized Resource Identifiers (IRIs) mapping to URIs. For example, https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/% is encoded as https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/%25 while http://موقع.وزارة-الاتصالات.مصر/ is encoded as http://xn--4gbrim.xn----rmckbbajlc6dj7bxne2c.xn--wgbh1c/

teidata.probability

teidata.probability defines the range of attribute values expressing a probability.
Moduletei
Used by
Content model
<content>
 <dataRef name="double">
  <dataFacet name="minInclusivevalue="0"/>
  <dataFacet name="maxInclusivevalue="1"/>
 </dataRef>
</content>
Declaration
teidata.probability = xsd:double
Note

Probability is expressed as a real number between 0 and 1; 0 representing certainly false and 1 representing certainly true.

teidata.probCert

teidata.probCert defines a range of attribute values which can be expressed either as a numeric probability or as a coded certainty value.
Moduletei
Used by
Content model
<content>
 <alternate>
  <dataRef key="teidata.probability"/>
  <dataRef key="teidata.certainty"/>
 </alternate>
</content>
Declaration
teidata.probCert = teidata.probability | teidata.certainty

teidata.temporal.w3c

teidata.temporal.w3c defines the range of attribute values expressing a temporal expression such as a date, a time, or a combination of them, that conform to the W3C XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes Second Edition specification.
Moduletei
Used by
Content model
<content>
 <alternate>
  <dataRef name="date"/>
  <dataRef name="gYear"/>
  <dataRef name="gMonth"/>
  <dataRef name="gDay"/>
  <dataRef name="gYearMonth"/>
  <dataRef name="gMonthDay"/>
  <dataRef name="time"/>
  <dataRef name="dateTime"/>
 </alternate>
</content>
Declaration
teidata.temporal.w3c =
   xsd:date
 | xsd:gYear
 | xsd:gMonth
 | xsd:gDay
 | xsd:gYearMonth
 | xsd:gMonthDay
 | xsd:time
 | xsd:dateTime
Note

If it is likely that the value used is to be compared with another, then a time zone indicator should always be included, and only the dateTime representation should be used.

teidata.text

teidata.text defines the range of attribute values used to express some kind of identifying string as a single sequence of Unicode characters possibly including whitespace.
Moduletei
Used by
Content model
<content>
 <dataRef name="string"/>
</content>
Declaration
teidata.text = string
Note

Attributes using this datatype must contain a single ‘token’ in which whitespace and other punctuation characters are permitted.

teidata.truthValue

teidata.truthValue defines the range of attribute values used to express a truth value.
Moduletei
Used by
Content model
<content>
 <dataRef name="boolean"/>
</content>
Declaration
teidata.truthValue = xsd:boolean
Note

The possible values of this datatype are 1 or true, or 0 or false.

This datatype applies only for cases where uncertainty is inappropriate; if the attribute concerned may have a value other than true or false, e.g. unknown, or inapplicable, it should have the extended version of this datatype: teidata.xTruthValue.

teidata.versionNumber

teidata.versionNumber defines the range of attribute values used for version numbers.
Moduletei
Used by
Content model
<content>
 <dataRef name="token"
  restriction="[\d]+[a-z]*[\d]*(\.[\d]+[a-z]*[\d]*){0,3}"/>

</content>
Declaration
teidata.versionNumber =
   token { pattern = "[\d]+[a-z]*[\d]*(\.[\d]+[a-z]*[\d]*){0,3}" }

teidata.word

teidata.word defines the range of attribute values expressed as a single word or token.
Moduletei
Used by
Content model
<content>
 <dataRef name="token"
  restriction="[^\p{C}\p{Z}]+"/>

</content>
Declaration
teidata.word = token { pattern = "[^\p{C}\p{Z}]+" }
Note

Attributes using this datatype must contain a single ‘word’ which contains only letters, digits, punctuation characters, or symbols: thus it cannot include whitespace.

teidata.xmlName

teidata.xmlName defines attribute values which contain an XML name.
Moduletei
Used by
Content model
<content>
 <dataRef name="NCName"/>
</content>
Declaration
teidata.xmlName = xsd:NCName
Note

The rules defining an XML name form a part of the XML Specification.

teidata.xpath

teidata.xpath defines attribute values which contain an XPath expression.
Moduletei
Used by
Content model
<content>
 <textNode/>
</content>
Declaration
teidata.xpath = text
Note

Any XPath expression using the syntax defined in 6.2. .

When writing programs that evaluate XPath expressions, programmers should be mindful of the possibility of malicious code injection attacks. For further information about XPath injection attacks, see the article at OWASP.
