Lists: subscriber lists

Encoding Instructions (new P5 version)

The WWP encodes subscriber lists using <list type="subscriber">.

Lists which are broken down by letter (A, B, C, etc.) are encoded as a list of lists, with the letters acting as headings for the individual lists, placed as the first child of the embedded list.

list type="subscriber"

itemMr. Baker/item/list/item

/list

Where “ditto” (or quotation marks) is used in place of a repeated name or place name, we will encode the repetition using persName or placeName, with a sameAs attribute pointing to the xml:id of the first instance of the material being repeated. See example 1.

Each “dittoed” reference gets its own ID, regardless of whether that particular place or person has already appeared and received an ID (since logically the “ditto” refers to the instance immediately preceding). See example 2. Also see 083 for more on repetitive referencing structures.

The phrase “2 copies” (for instance) will be encoded with measure.

Examples

            1.
