註

Although the msDesc has primarily been designed with a view to encoding manuscript descriptions, it may also be used for other objects such as early printed books, fascicles, epigraphs, or any text-bearing objects that require substantial description. If an object is not text-bearing or the reasons for describing the object is not primarily the textual content, the more general object may be more suitable.

<!-- Note: This rule applies to <msContents>, <physDesc>, <history>, and <additional> wherever they occur. Luckily they are only allowed in places where they are constrained to 0 or 1 occurence. If that changes someday, this constraint may will likely need to be updated, too. -->

<!-- Also worth noting that a) if &amp; when we can use abstract patterns, this would be better handled as a single abstract rule somewhere, and concrete rules in the individual <elementSpec>s; and b) I did not test for the existence of "../*[name(.) eq $gi][2]" because then an error would be generated for each of the multiple occurences of $gi. -->
