Re: is it necessary to disambiguate (using markup) inline notes,citations and original markup? [was] use of <mark> to denote notes in quoted text

Hi all,

quoted content.

Authors are encouraged to include the original HTML elements used in the
> source (if any) when quoting, this will preserve the *meaningful*semantics of the content. In cases where the source of the quote includes
