Note | When used in a specification element such as elementSpec, TEI convention requires that this be expressed as a finite clause, begining with an active verb. | ||||||||||
Example | <desc>contains a brief description of the purpose and intended use of a documentation element, or a brief characterisation of a parent entity </desc> | ||||||||||
Schematron | A desc with a type of deprecationInfo should only occur when its parent element is being deprecated. Furthermore, it should always occur in an element that is being deprecated when desc is a valid child of that element. <sch:rule context="tei:desc[ @type eq 'deprecationInfo']"> <sch:assert test="../@validUntil">Information about a deprecation should only be present in a specification element that is being deprecated: that is, only an element that has a @validUntil attribute should have a child <desc type="deprecationInfo">.</sch:assert> </sch:rule> | ||||||||||
