This request was submitted by Jeff Beck on behalf of the BITS Working Group.

Request: I’d like to request that the <abstract> element be added to additional locations in the next revision of JATS.
Submitter Proposed Solution
We request that the <abstract> be added to

• app
• app-group
• boxed-text
• chem-struct-wrap
• disp-formula
• disp-formula-group
• fig
• fig-group
• graphic
• media
• sec (keywords but not abstract present in current Tag Set)
• statement
• supplementary-material
• table-wrap
• table-wrap-group
Developer Response
Is the rational that various components of a journal article, such as a chemical formula, figure, or table, can have their own abstract separate from an abstract attached to the article as a whole?
