How to submit an article to the MML
To submit an article to the Mizar Mathematical Library please follow these steps:
- We claim that an author of a Mizar article is satisfied with the content
of his article. None of special restrictions are given for the length
of an article; usually it is between 1200 and 5000 lines, typical length
is about 1700 lines - we strongly recommend submission of
longer articles.
Observe that the restriction of 80 characters in a line is given
when submitting the article for inclusion in the MML.
- Check if your article uses the local data base. If so, empty local
"prel"
subdirectory (transfer preliminaries to your article if needed)
- Check your private vocabulary if you use any:
call "checkvoc ".
If it contains extended ASCII characters or one-letter symbols,
correct the formats. White space in a symbol is not allowed also.
CHECKVOC compares your private symbols with the ones from the MML and
returns error if any repeat.
- The name of your article had to be built according to the
ancient "8+3" DOS principles
with the obligatory extension ".miz". File name must contain only
letters, digits and symbol "_". The first character must be a letter
(excluding "x" as it is reserved for some special encyclopaedic
files).
The length of the name should be between 5 and 8.
File name had to be unique,
that is it must differ from article names yet submitted to the MML.
The correspondence of a name with the title of article as well
as 8-chars identifiers are preferred.
- The vocabulary name should be the same as the article name,
but the obligatory extension is ".voc". Make sure that the vocabulary
file does not contain unused symbols. For details concerning
vocabulary building, check
Vocabulary section on WWW.
- Make sure that your article is without errors: remove the
technical pragmas
::$V, ::$P, ::$EOF and call Mizar verifier.
Use
most recent
version of Mizar as possible.
- Please make sure that your file is clean under all standard
Mizar review programs available in your distribution:
RELPREM, RELINFER, CHKLAB, INACC, TRIVDEMO and RELITERS.
Also in your environment description unnecessary directives should be
deleted (IRRVOC and IRRTHS programs will be useful).
- Use example.bib file (in "doc" directory of your Mizar
distribution)
to make bibliography note for your article.
The name of this file has to be same as the name of your Mizar
article file name. Note that English language should be used.
Please add at least one citation for an external (i.e. non-Mizar)
article as given in the example bib-file.
