<article-title>
Article Title
Full title of a cited article.
Remarks
Usage: The <article-title> element is part of bibliographic reference metadata inside bibliographic citations (<element-citation> and <mixed-citation>), where it contains the full title of a cited journal article.
The title is nearly always in the original language of publication, but a publisher or
archive might choose to place all article titles in one language, such as English, and use
the translated title element to hold the original title (<trans-title>).
Subtitle: Within a bibliographic reference citation, the subtitle cannot be preserved separately as this Tag Set identifies no cited-subtitle elements.
For references using either the <element-citation>, which
does not permit untagged text, there are two choices:
- The subtitle may be included with the title in the <article-title> element (or the <source> element for book titles, proceedings titles, and other titles), or
- The subtitle may be tagged as <named-content> with a @content-type “subtitle”.
For references using the <mixed-citation>, there are two choices:
- The subtitle may be included with the title in the <article-title> element (or the <source> element for book titles, proceedings titles, and other titles), or
- The subtitle may be left as untagged characters within the text of the reference.
Best Practice in Citations: Although this Tag Set
cannot enforce either practice, retrieval performance will be enhanced if the subtitle for
all cited material is consistently placed within the <article-title> element for journal articles and within the
<source> element for book titles, proceedings
titles, and other documents. When marked as either a <named-content> or left as untagged text, the subtitle is
easy to lose to searching. It is also not always easy to identify, particularly with
historical or foreign material, which part of a multi-part title is the main title and
which the subtitle.
