Note

All documentation elements in ODD have a canonical name, supplied as the value for their ident attribute. The altIdent element is used to supply an alternative name for the corresponding XML object, perhaps in a different language.
Example
<altIdent xml:lang="fr">balisageDoc</altIdent>
Schematron The altIdent element should only be a child of attDef, classSpec, constraintSpec, dataSpec, elementSpec, macroSpec, or valItem. Thus its use in other places is being deprecated.

<sch:report test=" parent::tei:model | parent::tei:modelGrp | parent::tei:modelSequence | parent::tei:paramSpec | parent::tei:schemaSpec"
 role="nonfatal"> Use of <altIdent> as a child of <<sch:value-of select="name(..)"/>> is
deprecated, and will no longer be valid after 2022-07-14.
</sch:report>
<sch:report test="parent::tei:moduleSpec"
 role="nonfatal"> Use of <altIdent> to declare the FPI of a module is
deprecated, and will no longer be valid after 2022-07-14;
please use <idno type="FPI"> instead.
</sch:report>
Schematron Other than when used to indicate the formal public identifier of a module (which is a deprecated usage), the content of altIdent should be a single teidata.xmlName.

<sch:rule context="tei:altIdent[ not( parent::tei:moduleSpec or @type eq 'FPI' ) ]">
<sch:assert test=". castable as xs:NCName"> The content of this 'altIdent' element (<sch:value-of select="normalize-space(.)"/>)
should conform to teidata.xmlName.
</sch:assert>
</sch:rule>
