| key |
provides an alternative identifier for the object being named,
such as a database record key. |
|
Datatype: CDATA |
|
Values: any string |
|
Default: #IMPLIED |
|
Example: <name type="place">Montaillou</name>
is not a large parish.
At the time of the events which led to
<name key="BXII" type="person">Fournier's</name> investigations,
the local population consisted of between 200 and
250 inhabitants.
|
| Note |
The value may be a unique identifier from a database, or
simply a more explicit name for the referent. Its purpose is only to
record an identification; if the analysis leading to the identification
is to be recorded as well, the analytic tags described in chapter 16 Feature Structures
should be used in addition or instead.
|
| reg |
(regularization)
gives a normalized or regularized form of the name used. |
|
Datatype: CDATA |
|
Values: Any string of characters. |
|
Default: #IMPLIED |
|
Example: At the time of the events which led to
<name reg="Benedict XII, Pope of Avignon (Jacques Fournier)"
type="person">Fournier's</name> investigations,
the local population consisted of between 200 and
250 inhabitants.
|
| Note |
In providing a `regularized' form, no
claim is made that the form in the source text is incorrect; the
regularized form is simply that chosen as the main form for purposes
of unifying variant forms under a single heading.
