As Tantek mentioned, there aren't many real-world examples. Perhaps,

I think it's a good idea. DocBook, TEI, LaTeX are all good existing
models (I think the constant focus on "real world = what's already on
the web" is counter-productive; we're still early in the web
revolution). Indeed, I author my academic articles and books in
DocBook, and then convert them to a home-grown XHTML micro-format. It
actually is pretty good on its own, but also imports nicely into Word
(which is what publishers typically want).
Note also that Alf Eaton did some work in this area.
Here in particular - for publishing articles rather than books -
along with some background research and example pages elsewhere on
the site:

I was waiting for the citation microformat to get to a conclusion
before trying to persuade any publishers to use this (or something
like it).
