<history>

History: Document History

Container element for dates related to the processing history of the document (for example, received date, accepted date).

Remarks

Best Practice: The dates inside the <history> element are used to preserve events other than publication date(s) in the life cycle of the article. Publication dates are considered to be an important part of the article metadata and are tagged using the <pub-date> element inside the element <article-meta>. History dates include received date(s), accepted date(s), reviewed date(s), revision date(s), and other dates that may be important to the publisher, but are not a likely part of the metadata concerning the article that is used for searching, building a DOI, etc.
