---+++3.14 Referencing contributors and sources
In SDD, this is a central repository for names of persons or organization, and is used throughout the data when attributing intellectual work, enabling management of authors, editors, contributors, translators and their respective contributions.
Agents are defined simply with a text string and an optional URL leading to more detailed information, as shown in the wire diagram and simple example below.
