In our earlier straw proposal <http://microformats.org/wiki/citation-

current straw proposal <http://microformats.org/wiki/citation-
brainstorming#Working_straw_schema> it's in the same block as the
metadata for the article itself.
The main occasion I can think of where this could be a problem is if
the item is found in multiple containers (eg a track on two different
albums, or a syndicated news article). Should there be a separate
hcitation for each occurence, or should they be condensed into one
with multiple containers?
I'm inclined to say they should be condensed into one with multiple
containers, since that seems simpler and avoids repetition. However, I
think the thing to do is follow existing practices, so if we can find
some marked-up examples of items with multiple containers and see how
they're already written, we'd have a better idea of which decision
would be likely to get used and which would be an imposition...
I can't think of where to find such examples, so if anyone else has
some, please share them.
