[jats-list] Update requested for examples when citing standards

[Bruce Rosenblum <bruce@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

In the working group's final recommendations for JATS 1.0, comment 
161 includes information about additional methods for tagging 
references to standards. The tag library examples were never updated 
to reflect the decision by the working group. Furthermore, the 
existing examples for the <std> element do not reflect common 
editorial styles when citing standards in a bibliography.

In line with comment 161, I'd like to offer the following examples as 
recommended practice for tagging standards using source and pub-id:

<ref id="ref1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation 
publication-type="standard"><pub-id pub-id-type="std-designation">ISO 
832:1994</pub-id>, <source>Information and documentation -- 
Bibliographic description and references -- Rules for the 
abbreviation of bibliographic terms</source></mixed-citation></ref>

<ref id="ref2"><label>2.</label><mixed-citation 
publication-type="standard"><pub-id pub-id-type="std-designation">ISO 
78-2:1999</pub-id>, <source>Chemistry -- Layouts for standards -- 
Part 2: Methods of chemical analysis</source></mixed-citation></ref>

<ref id="ref3"><label>3.</label><mixed-citation 
publication-type="standard"><pub-id 
pub-id-type="std-designation">IEEE 802.3u-1995</pub-id>, <source>IEEE 
Standards for Local and Metropolitan Area Networks--Supplement to 
Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) 
Access Method and Physical Layer Specifications--Media Access Control 
(MAC) Parameters, Physical Layer, Medium Attachment Units, and 
Repeater for 100 Mb/s Operation.</source></mixed-citation></ref>

Notes:
1. This markup leaves behind the <std> element and give greater 
granularity by using pub-id and source
2. CrossRef has just introduced the standard_designator element into 
the CrossRef query schema 
(http://doi.crossref.org/schemas/crossref_query_input2.0.xsd), and 
the content of pub-id, as illustrated here, will map directly to the 
recommended content for the standard_designator element. Please note 
that the year is considered part of the designator for a standard and 
is _not_ a separate semantic element in this context.

I have also seen cases when standards are cited like "books". The 
next example is such a case and is recommended markup for this case:

<ref id="ref4"><label>4.</label><mixed-citation 
publication-type="book"><person-group 
person-group-type="author"><collab>National Information Standards 
Organization</collab></person-group>. <source>Syntax for the Digital 
Object Identifier</source>. <publisher-loc>New York</publisher-loc>: 
<publisher-name>American National Standards 
Institute</publisher-name>; <year>2000</year>. <size units="pages">24 
pp.</size> (<pub-id pub-id-type="std-designation">ANSI/NISO 
Z39.84-2000</pub-id>).</mixed-citation></ref>

Thanks!

Bruce
