Perhaps Micheal Cooper will know. Micheal? > The way I handled this in some editorial work I did earlier can be seen in the definitions for CSS pixel and display orientation. In short, point to the spec to say the definition comes from there, and also put in a formal reference to the spec by putting its shortname in double brackets like [[css]] which the script will turn into an official reference. The shortname is the part after the TR in the latest version URI, e.g., for WCAG 2.1 it's "WCAG21". Most likely the reference should be a "normative" reference, so put an exclamation mark at the start inside the brackets, like [[!css]], and the script will handle appropriately. That's what I did for those other terms. Michael
