OriginType
A wrapper for all or part of the text of a piece of text, which provides a pointer to an item of data corresponding formally to what is being described here in natural language. The Href attribute identifies the relevant data, and may be an http URL or a NewsML URN as described in the comment to PublicIdentifier, optionally including a fragment identifier. Alternatively, it can be a simple fragment identifier consisting of a # character followed by the value of the Duid of an element in the current document.

Attributes
| Name | Occ | Type | Description | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Duid | [0..1] | xsd:ID | Duid is a "Document-unique Identifier". It must satisfy the rules for XML ID attributes: it must only contain name characters, and it must start with a name-start character (not a digit). Its value must be unique within any NewsML document. Every NewsML element type has Duid as an optional attribute. Combined with the Identifier element, providing a value for the Duid of any element in a NewsML document makes the element globally identifiable. The Identifier element gives global identification to the document, and the Duid provides local identification for the element within the document. | from group localid |
| Euid | [0..1] | xsd:string | Euid is an "Element-unique Identifier". Its value must be unique among elements of the same element-type and having the same parent element. Use of Euid attribute makes it possible to identify any NewsML element within the context of its local branch of the NewsML document tree. This makes it possible to copy, or include by reference, subtrees into new combinations in ways that would break the uniqueness of Duids (thereby forcing new Duids to be allocated), but still being able to retain the identity of each element. If Euids are maintained at every level, it is possible to identify, for example "The ContentItem whose Euid is abc within the NewsComponent whose Euid is def". Such identification patterns would be preserved even after "pruning and grafting" of subtrees. | from group localid |
| AssignedBy | [0..1] | xsd:string | An identifier for the party assigning a piece of metadata. This can be a string that designates the party informally (for example, a person's name), or a pointer in the form a fragment identifier consisting of a # character followed by the Duid of a Topic corresponding to the party. | from group assignment |
| Importance | [0..1] | xsd:string | An indication of the importance the party assigning a piece of metadata attaches to it. The value of the Importance attribute is a formal name for a level of importance. Its meaning and permitted values are determined by a controlled vocabulary. | from group assignment |
| Confidence | [0..1] | xsd:string | An indication of the confidence with which a piece of metadata has been assigned. The value of the Confidence attribute is a formal name for a degree of confidence. Its meaning and permitted values are determined by a controlled vocabulary. | from group assignment |
| HowPresent | [0..1] | xsd:string | An indication of the way in which a piece of metadata applies. The value of the HowPresent attribute is a formal name for the way the metadata applies. Its meaning and permitted values are determined by a controlled vocabulary. | from group assignment |
| DateAndTime | [0..1] | NewsMLDateTime | The date and (optionally) time at which a piece of metadata was assigned. | from group assignment |
| Href | [0..1] | xsd:string |
