<annotation>

Annotation in a Citation

Definition

Information concerning the cited work in bibliographic references <citation> and <nlm-citation>. For the intent, see Remarks below.

Remarks

Although most citations simply provide the bibliographic information for a cited reference, a few describe the work, categorize the work, comment upon the nature or quality of the work, or summarize its findings. The <annotation> is intended to hold such comments.

Display Note: All of the other reference elements are inline elements. In contrast, an Annotation in a Citation is typically presented as a block element, with space before and after it.
