improvements to SG-oth: order of sub-sections, XML declaration, encoding #2076
Comments
This chapter of the Guidelines, arguably the most popular and influential, is primarily the work of @lb42. Thus assigning to him, as I think he has earned right of first refusal for updates to this chapter. |
Since the section on the xml declaration says it is not a PI, it really shouldn't be in the section that discusses PIs. I now have a revised version. Do you want me to create a branch and pull request or can I just check it in as in the good ole days? |
Agreed (not best served by being in PI section). When you ask “do you want a PR vs just check in”, the answer probably depends on which “you” you are asking. I think just checking in a prose change like that is fine. But @peterstadler, @martindholmes, and probably several others seem to want everything in a PR these days. |
OK, I checked it in. Leaving issue open for you to check you like the rewording. |
VF2F subgroup: we think there are some more revisions to work on here. Assigning @sydb to make revisions and @JanelleJenstad to proofread and fix that which he produces. |
While I am not 100% on this, it looks like all issues have been addressed. |

Of course, if the example is changed, said immediately following discussion has to be re-written to accommodate the change.<teiCorpus>

) should occur before “Processing Instructions” (SG-pi
), if not before “Character References” (SG-er
).The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
