The page Citation_in_digital_scholarship describes a convention for indicating citations that relies on the 'class' and 'title' attributes when implemented in (x)html. This page describes an extension of that convention to encompass adding Microformats and CTS to conformant citations.

Sample sentence: "vd. Ath. Deipn. I".

Microformats + CTS

<a class="citation" target="_blank" href="http://fragments-repo.appspot.com/CTS?request=GetPassagePlus&withXSLT=true&urn=urn:cts:greekLit:tlg0008.tlg001.fhg01:1&inv=fhg-inventory.xml">
  <cite class="ctref">
   Ath. 
   Deipn. 
   I
   <span style="display:none" class="edition" title="urn:cts:greekLit:tlg0008.tlg001.fhg01">Kaibel
  </cite>
</a>

The idea is to store in the @title a machine-understandable value representing a citation segment. In this example CTS URNs are used to provide identifiers for authors, works and work editions.
