<collab-name-alternatives> Collaborative (Group) Name Alternatives

Wrapper element for more than one version of a single collaboration name, for example, the name of a laboratory in more than one language (such as a laboratory name in Japanese Kana characters and a transliterated form of the laboratory name in the Latin alphabet).

Usage/Remarks

The <collab-name-alternatives> is intended to hold as many names for a collaboration as need to be recorded. It should never be used as a sibling of <collab-name>, rather it should be used to contain collaboration names.
The <name-alternatives> element may be used to hold variant names of a collaboration:
Related Elements
The element <collab-name-alternatives> replaces the element <collab-alternatives>, a deprecated element which was originally designed to perform exactly the same function, but which was deprecated when <collab> was deprecated.
