Placeholder for the name of a contributor where the actual name is unknown or not disclosed.
Design Note: Many tag sets model this element as an EMPTY placeholder, which is used to generate “anon.”, “Anonymous”, or similar text. However, a few tag sets expect content for this element, with such text as “Anonymous but assumed to be Francis Bacon”. Therefore, as implemented starting with Tag Set Version 2.3, the element <anonymous> uses a mixed content model in this Tag Set, so that content may be inserted when necessary.
<!ELEMENT anonymous %anonymous-model; >
