Review

This is an implementation of schema.org Review, adapted in Stencila Schema for structured review content.

It fits into Stencila's broader creative-work model while emphasizing rich block content for the review body instead of the plain-text text or reviewBody properties used in schema.org. This makes it suitable for peer review, software review, and other document-oriented evaluation workflows.

Key properties include itemReviewed, reviewAspect, and inherited content from CreativeWork.

Analogues

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

  • schema.org Review

  • JATS <sec>: Approximate JATS analogue when reviews are encoded as structured sections of prose rather than a dedicated review element.
