Author Notes

Capture notes about contributors in an <author-notes> element.

The <author-notes> element may contain child <fn> elements for contributor footnotes or <corresp> elements for contributor correspondence notes.

Each <fn> or <corresp> element must have a @id attribute which contains a unique identifier for the note which is used for linking to the relevant contributor(s) (see Contributor Cross References).

If the <fn> or <corresp> is numbered it must contain a <label> containing the relevant label text.
