| Attribute | | extent | indicates approximately how much text is in the damaged area,
in letters, minims, inches, or any appropriate unit, where this
cannot be deduced from the contents of the tag. | Zustand | Optional | | Datentyp | 1–∞ occurrences of separated by whitespace | | Werte | any measurement phrase, e.g. 25 letters, 2 × 3
inches. |
| | hand | In the case of damage (deliberate defacement, etc.) assignable
to a distinct hand, signifies the hand responsible for the
damage.| Zustand | Optional | | Datentyp | | | Werte | must be one of the hand identifiers declared in the document
header (see section 11.4.1 Document Hands). |
| | agent | categorizes the cause of the damage, if it can be identified.| Zustand | Optional | | Datentyp | | | Beispielwerte sind etwa: | - rubbing

leaf edges

| | degree | Signifies the degree of damage according to a convenient scale.
The <damage> tag with the degree attribute should
only be used where the text may be read with some confidence; text
supplied from other sources should be tagged as <supplied>.| Zustand | Optional | | Datentyp | | | Werte | an alphanumeric categorization of the degree of damage, as
0.4. | | Anmerkung | The <damage> tag with the degree
attribute should only be used where the text may be read with
confidence despite the damage. It is appropriate where it is desired
to record the fact of damage, though this has not affected the
readability of the text (as may be the case with weathered
inscriptional materials). Where the damage has rendered the text
more or less illegible either the <unclear> tag (for partial
illegibility) or the <gap> tag (for complete illegibility,
with no text supplied) should be used, with the information
concerning the damage given in the attribute values of these tags.
See section 11.5.2 Use of the <gap>, <del>, <damage>, <unclear>, and <supplied> Elements in Combination for discussion of the use of these
tags in particular circumstances. |
| | group | assigns an arbitrary number to each stretch of damage
regarded as forming part of the same physical phenomenon.| Zustand | Obligatorisch wenn zutreffend | | Datentyp | |
