xrefs in earlier chapters

[Sean Fitzpatrick]

I noticed that in the first few chapters, it is more common to see markup like:

<xref ref="def_closed_continuity">Definition</xref>

Am I right in thinking that this is now somewhat deprecated, and we should be using simply <xref ref="def_closed_continuity"/>?

Overall I think a lot of our references do not follow what is in the guide.

(Or we skip details like text="local" and rely on defaults.)

[Rob Beezer]

Almost certainly. Guide should be correct, sample article section has lots of inaccurate statements.

[Sean Fitzpatrick]

Thanks Rob.

The guide has a lot of details on how to format the cross references, but my experience has been that 99% of the time, I can just do <xref ref="foo"/> and PreTeXt will do the right thing.

A few cases we need text="title" or custom.

Haven't touched other attributes at all. Maybe I should, but if it ain't broke...
