specific documents are published via the IATI activity standard.
All document-link
should be presented in the form of URLs (eg: http://example.org/exampledocument.odt)
The URL must resolve to a valid internet address that provides direct access to the document in question.
Attention should be paid by the publisher to any links that become obsolete.
The same document can be presented in different languages via separate document-link
elements.
For every document presented either a title
or category
is expected (or both).
The title
element can be repeated for different languages, regardless of the language of the actual document.
The free-text instances of title
should avoid use of text in CAPITALS, where possible.
For document category
in the IATI organisation standard, it is expected that the DocumentCategory
code would be have the B prefix.
