<ref-list>

Reference List (Bibliographic)

Definition

List of references (citations) for an article, which is often called “References”, “Bibliography”, or “Additional Reading”

Remarks

No distinction is made between lists of cited references and lists of suggested references.

Conversion Note: The optional paragraph-level elements after the title allow for those rare cases where there is explanatory material inside the list, preceding the references. There may also be similar explanatory material inside each reference group. However, any explanatory material that is outside a citation, for example, preceding a citation or between citations, will need to be relocated to inside one of the citations during conversion.
