Faulty titles in BIPM Metrologia references

[anermina]

Fetched titles of several BIPM Metrologia references include less and greater parameters.

bundle exec relaton fetch "BIPM Metrologia 55 1 L13"

<bibdata type="article">
  <fetched>2022-09-19</fetched>
  <title type="title-main" format="text/plain" language="en" script="Latn">The {CODATA} 2017 values of$\less$i$\greater$h$\less$/i$\greater$,$\less$i$\greater$e$\less$/i$\greater$,$\less$i$\greater$k$\less$/i$\greater$, and$\less$i$\greater$N$\less$/i$\greater$$\less$sub$\greater$A$\less$/sub$\greater$for the revision of the {SI}</title>

  <uri type="doi">https://doi.org/10.1088/1681-7575/aa950a</uri>

Therefore, we don't get the correct rendering of those references:

Thank you @anermina for spotting this! This is the first instance where we needed to have math inside titles and abstracts. This will require a change in the Relaton data model for support, which will require us to adopt a series of downstream changes.

[andrew2net]

@ronaldtse title has a format option. We can use text/html format and have title with HTML content.

[andrew2net]

fixed in relaton-bib v1.13.8 and relaton-bipm v1.13.8

Of course, Metanorma expects content to be marked up in Metanorma, @andrew2net if there a Metanorma option on the titles? If not, I'll need to implement an HTML to Metanorma translator my side.

[ronaldtse]

I do not think HTML is a solution. This is LaTeX math in the title.

[ronaldtse]

If not, I'll need to implement an HTML to Metanorma translator my side.

That's a huge stretch. I'm not sure we really want that.

@opoudjis title is a subclass of FormattedString and it allows "text/html" format. We don't need full HTML support, just some markup that we already have in abstract (abstract is also FormattedString).

I do not think HTML is a solution. This is LaTeX math in the title.

@ronaldtse it's not a math, it's just italic and subscript markup:

<title type="title-main" format="text/html" language="en" script="Latn">The CODATA 2017 values of <i>h</i>, <i>e</i>, <i>k</i>, and <i>N</i><sub>A</sub> for the revision of the SI</title>

Yes, I know that. But I'm consuming these bibitems, and I'm consuming them in the context of Metanorma. So I'm asking you, whether a Metanorma XML option is available...

just some markup that we already have in abstract (abstract is also FormattedString).

Yes, and when this came up in IETF, we got away with it because p is shared between Metanorma XML and HTML; in fact, a lot of markup is.

On the other hand, <i> and <b> are not: Metanorma only understands <strong> and <em>.

So we still have a problem:

• Either I write an HTML to Metanorma XML translator to consume these strings,
• Or you add a Metanorma XML string
• Or we agree on a limited number of tags shared by Metanorma XML and HTML

[andrew2net]

Fixed.

<title type="title-main" format="text/html" language="en" script="Latn">The CODATA 2017 values of <em>h</em>, <em>e</em>, <em>k</em>, and <em>N</em><sub>A</sub> for the revision of the SI</title>

[opoudjis]

So, we have for now gone for a solution of only using tags shared between Metanorma and HTML. Eventually, this will break, when we start using MathML in titles, and I will implement a translator.
