<assert>

An assertion about a concept

Note

Usage note

The assertion about the concept may be used to merge multiple occurrences of concept details in properties into a single place or to extend the details of an assertion beyond the limited details other properties can provide.

When adding NewsML-G2 properties to an Assertion, immediate child elements from <itemMeta>, <contentMeta> or <concept> may be added directly to the Assert without the parent element; all other elements MUST be wrapped by their parent element(s), excluding the root element.

Content model

No child elements.

Attribute Type Use Description

Attribute	Type	Use	Description
Declared on this element
`qcode`	`QCodeType`	optional	A concept identifier expressed as a string of the form sss:ccc, where sss is a scheme alias and ccc is a code
`uri`	`IRIType`	optional	A URI which identifies a concept.
`literal`	`g2normalizedString`	optional	A concept identifier expressed as a free text string
From commonPowerAttributes
`id`	`ID`	optional	The local identifier of the property.
`creator`	`QCodeType`	optional	If the property value is not defined, specifies which entity (person, organisation or system) will edit the property value - expressed by a QCode. If the property value is defined, specifies which entity (person, organisation or system) has edited the property value.
`creatoruri`	`IRIType`	optional	If the property value is not defined, specifies which entity (person, organisation or system) will edit the property - expressed by a URI. If the property value is defined, specifies which entity (person, organisation or system) has edited the property.
`modified`	`DateOptTimeType`	optional	The date (and, optionally, the time) when the property was last modified. The initial value is the date (and, optionally, the time) of creation of the property.
`custom`	`boolean`	optional	If set to true the corresponding property was added to the G2 Item for a specific customer or group of customers only. The default value of this property is false which applies when this attribute is not used with the property.

`whyuri`	`IRIType`	optional	Why the metadata has been included - expressed by a URI
`pubconstraint`	`QCodeListType`	optional	One or many constraints that apply to publishing the value of the property - expressed by a QCode. Each constraint applies to all descendant elements.
`pubconstrainturi`	`IRIListType`	optional	One or many constraints that apply to publishing the value of the property - expressed by a URI. Each constraint applies to all descendant elements.
From i18nAttributes
`xml:lang`		optional	Specifies the language of this property and potentially all descendant properties. xml:lang values of descendant properties override this value. Values are determined by Internet BCP 47.
`dir`		optional	The directionality of textual content (enumeration: ltr, rtl)
