| Description of Document: |
This document is intended as an
entry point for users of Dublin Core. For non-specialists,
it will assist them in creating simple descriptive records
for information resources (for example, electronic documents).
Specialists may find the document a useful point of reference
to the documentation of Dublin Core, as it changes and grows. |

6.2 Simple HTML Examples
General examples [1]
<meta name = "DC.Creator"
content = "Simpson, Homer">
<meta name = "DC.Title"
content = "The Communist Manifesto">
<meta name = "DC.Creator"
content = "Marx, K.">
<meta name = "DC.Creator"
content = "Engels, F.">
<meta name = "DC.Title"
content = "Capital">
Example: Special character encoding
[1]
<meta name = "DC.Creator"
content = "Da Costa, José">
<meta name = "DC.Title"
content = "Jesse "The Body" Ventura--A Biography">
These examples show how some special characters may be encoded.
The author name in the first element contains a diacritic encoded
as an HTML character entity reference -- in this case an accented
letter E. Similarly, the second contains two double-quote characters
encoded so as to avoid being interpreted as element content delimiters.
Link tags [1]
<link rel = "schema.DC"
href = "http://purl.org/DC/elements/1.0/">
<link rel = "schema.ADMIN"
href = "http://metadata.net/admin">
Embedded HTML in poem [1]

</head>
<body><pre>
Rough wind, that moanest loud
Grief too sad for song;
Wild wind, when sullen cloud
Knells all the night long;
Sad storm, whose tears are vain,
Bare woods, whose branches strain,
Deep caves and dreary main, -
Wail, for the world's wrong!
</pre></body>
</html>
Different encoding practices [1]
<META NAME="DC.Format"
CONTENT="text/html; 12 Kbytes">
<meta
Content = "text/html; 12 Kbytes"
Name = "DC.Format">
<meta name = "DC.Format" content = "text/html; 12 Kbytes">
Encoding languages and schemes [1]
<meta lang = "LANGUAGE_OF_METADATA_CONTENT" ... >
<meta scheme = "CONTROLLED_FORMAT_OR_VOCABULARY_OF_METADATA" ... >
<meta name = "PREFIX.ELEMENT_NAME.SUBELEMENT_NAME" ... >
Accordingly, a work in Spanish with an additional English title
might be described with:
<meta name = "DC.Language"
scheme = "rfc1766"
content = "es">
<meta name = "DC.Title"
lang = "es"
content = "La Mesa Verde y la Silla Roja">
<meta name = "DC.Title"
lang = "en"
content = "The Green Table and the Red Chair">
<meta name = "DC.Date"
content = "1935">
