<contrib-group>

Contributor Group

Definition

Wrapper element for information concerning a grouping of contributors, such as primary authors. These are contributors who worked individually, not as a group.

Remarks

Not to be confused with the element <collab>, which is used for groups of authors who are credited under a single name, either as a collaboration in the strictest sense, or when an organization, institution, or a corporation is given as a contributor.

Related Elements

This element is for grouping contributors in the metadata of an article. The <person-group> element performs a similar function of grouping contributors, such as authors and editors, within bibliographic references (<citation> and <nlm-citation>).
