FWIW, changes to the PROV-N signatures in the ProvRDF page such as:

|asnExpression([id],e,[a],[t],[attrs])
+
|asnExpression(id,e,a,t,[attr_1=val_1, ...])

and

|entity(id, [ attr1=val1, ...])
+
entity(id, [ attr_1=val1, ...])


break the automated alignment check at

If you want these signatures to change, please raise an issue against DM.

Thanks,
Tim
