<article> Article

A journal article.

Usage/Remarks

This element can be used to describe not only typical journal articles (research articles) but also much of the non-article content within a journal, such as book and product reviews, editorials, commentaries, obituaries, and news summaries.
Related Elements
A journal article (<article>) may be divided into four components:
  1. <processing-meta> (the metadata that concerns the XML file rather than the contents of the document);
  2. the <front> (the metadata or header information for the article, such as the title and the published date);
  3. the <body> (textual and graphical content of the article); and
  4. any <back> (ancillary information such as a glossary, reference list, or appendix).
