Remarks

The <article-title> element is used in two contexts: as a part of the metadata concerning the article itself and as part of bibliographic reference metadata inside a bibliographic citation <citation>.

The title is nearly always in the original language of publication, but a publisher or archive might choose to place all article titles in one language such as English and use the translated title element to hold the original title (Translated Title <trans-title>).

Authoring and Conversion Note: In the article metadata, the article subtitle and title are two different elements and should be tagged separately, using the <article-title> and <subtitle> elements. Within a bibliographic reference citation, the subtitle cannot be preserved separately. Some DTDs place it within the title, some leave it as untagged data characters within the text of the <citation>. Although this DTD Suite cannot enforce either form, retrieval performance will be enhanced if the subtitle is placed into the <article-title> element in cited material.
