I'm one person who's doing an heavy use of cite in my writing. The
issue is that it has been poorly defined that we see a lot of patterns.
IANAL = I'am not a librarian.
For example, I have used cite inside or outside of blockquote.
<blockquote cite="urn:isbn:2070717399">
<p>L'instituteur m'a donné …</p>
<p class="source">
<cite class="auteur">Kenzaburō, Ōe</cite>. 1989.
<cite class="titre"><a href="http://www.shunkin.net/Auteurs/?book=4
73">M/T et l'histoire des merveilles de la forêt</a></cite>. p. 13. Du
monde ent
ier. Paris: Gallimard.</p>
</blockquote>
but I have also done things like this in the past
<p class="source"><cite class="auteur">Kenzaburō Ōe</cite> has
written in <cite class="titre"><a href="http://www.shunkin.net/Auteurs/?book=4
73">M/T et l'histoire des merveilles de la forêt</a></cite>:</p>
<blockquote cite="urn:isbn:2070717399">
<p>L'instituteur m'a donné…</p>
</blockquote>
Some patterns have their own issues, which give different constraints,
flexibilities.
# issues
* what are the patterns on the Web right now when using cite? (with/
without blockquote/q) [The most needed for now]
* How do you associate a specific author, title to a specific quote?
* What are the use cases for cite?
* Is there a need for a better content model? We can think about
"author", "source", etc. elements
