[http://wikipedia.org Wikipedia] makes extensive use of bibliographic citations, in particular to point readers to further information sources. There are differing formats depending on Wikipedia's language.

Note that Wikipedia values are often links to other pages on Wikipedia (used elsewhere, those URLs might be more canonical, such as to an author or publisher's website).

The markup for the 'full citation' page is similar, with a little more information about the authors.
 
Here's the markup from the 'ACM Ref' link, which apparently is how they suggest you format it:
<pre>
<nowiki>
Zhao, W., Whalley, D., Healy, C., and Mueller, F. 2005.

</td>
 
 
</nowiki>
</pre>
 
== CiteSeer database search results ==
 
The [http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu CiteSeer] database has been another heavily used Computer Science online resource, and it has minimal markup:
 
Here's what you see on the main page for a given paper - this information is duplicated everywhere on the page, but this is where it's formatted most like an academic citation:
<pre><nowiki>
<font size=-1>Yoshio Kataoka, Michael D. Ernst, William G. Griswold, and David Notkin.
Automated support for program refactoring using invariants. In ICSM, pages 736-- 743,
November 2001. http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/kataoka01automated.html &nbsp;
<a href="http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/check/1791139">More</a></font><br>
 
</nowiki>
</pre>
 
Clicking on the 'More' link in the above text gets you a page with a listing of all the ways they found it written out as a citation in other papers. This is an example of how they mark up each of those entries:
 
<pre><nowiki>
<br>
Yoshio Kataoka, Michael D. Ernst, William G. Griswold, and David Notkin.
<i>Automated support for program refactoring using invariants</i>.
In ICSM, pages 736-- 743, November 2001.<br>
<br>
</nowiki>
</pre>
 
== CiteULike.org citation listing ==
 
[http://www.citeulike.org/ CiteULike] is a shared reference database site that allows organization using tags and ratings. The site imports from many unstructured web resources using mostly screen-scraping plugins (I think --Mike)
 
Here is an example of the markup for one article on the main page:
<pre><nowiki>
<tr>
  <td...>
    <ul>
      <li>
        <a class="title" href="/user/jrw/article/505272">Geometric phases in adiabatic open quantum systems</a>

        </div>
      </li>
    </ul>
  </td>
</tr>
</nowiki></pre>
 
And here is markup from the detail page for another publication:

== Citeproc XHTML output ==
I'm the author of the [http://xbiblio.sourceforge.net/citeproc.html citeproc] project, which includes a micro-format of sorts (though I never thought of it as such) in its XHTML output mode.  See [http://xbiblio.sourceforge.net/examples/apa-en.html here] for an example.  The difference compared to the bibtex-derived model is that is a) more generic and b) hierachical.
It would be possible, certainly, to do a flat model if for some reason there was a good technical reason not to go hierarchical (though is there?)
'''The burden of proof is on *going* hierarchical, rather than a simpler flat solution.  Complexity must be justified, not simplicity.'''
... but then you need to think outside the BibTeX box in any case. Any model of this sort ought to be able to handle legal citations, magazine articles, patents, etc. etc.; not just a narrow range of BibTeX types.
'''Per the microformats [[process]], microformats are designed to support existing practice on the Web, anything else should be omitted from at least the first version.'''
== Styles ==
This does NOT define a format, but instead shows how the format should be displayed. This is something out of the direct scope of this project. CSS styles will handle the look-and-feel of the text, and the author can put it in any order they choose. These links are mentioned for two reasons, one is informative, the other is so we know at least meet the minimum properties that are used in the styles.

Latest revision as of 16:21, 18 July 2020


The following examples are real world examples of citations found on the web. Please add to this list. The idea is that we get a solid sample of examples and see what commonalities there are amonst them and try to build this microformat so that it can meet 80% of typical uses.

To add examples: please first add a copy of the HTML source for your example at the citation-examples-markup page, then add a description of the example to this page, with a link to the corresponding section on citation-examples-markup. Thanks!

Citation Mark Up in the Wild

Mark up examples, e.g. including from reference publisher's websites (online catalogs), including ABC-CLIO, Greenwood Press, Marshall Cavendish, Oxford University Press (USA) and Thomson Gale. Examples are broken down and organized by element.

CiteProc XHTML Output

CiteProc Original Markup

The XHTML output for CiteProc[1] wasn't designed per se as a microformat, but is probably not a bad place to start. It is designed to handle a wide range of content. Here is the APA output:

Wikipedia

Wikipedia makes extensive use of bibliographic citations, in particular to point readers to further information sources. There are differing formats depending on Wikipedia's language.

Note that Wikipedia values are often links to other pages on Wikipedia (used elsewhere, those URLs might be more canonical, such as to an author or publisher's website).

The kinds of citations used on the site run the full gamut. Here are breakdowns of four categories previously mentioned:

  • description (abstract)
  • date
  • type
  • identifier (a url)
  • format
  • fulltext
    • this is in a rel-alternate link element. The class is 'fulltext', and the href is the same link as in format, only a valid URL this time.

In the body of the page, they use the following classes, now no longer DC terms:

With exception of just a few properties, all of the above appeared in atleast two different examples. The following properties were very common in most the example formats:

Styles

This section should be moved and incorporated into citation-formats.

This does NOT define a format, but instead shows how the format should be displayed. This is something out of the direct scope of this project. CSS styles will handle the look-and-feel of the text, and the author can put it in any order they choose. These links are mentioned for two reasons, one is informative, the other is so we know at least meet the minimum properties that are used in the styles.
