This is a type used in Stencila Schema for grouped citations.

It exists to represent multiple related Citation nodes as a single inline unit when the surrounding text cites several references at once. This allows citation processors and renderers to generate a combined rendered form, including ranges and grouping punctuation, while preserving the individual citation items structurally.

Key properties include items and the generated content rendering.

Analogues

The following external types, elements, or nodes are similar to a CitationGroup:

MyST role cite: Close MyST authoring analogue for grouped citations, though Stencila stores individual citation items explicitly.

CSL citation cluster: Conceptually analogous to a rendered citation cluster in Citation Style Language processors.
