Overview
This page describes GEDCOM extension tags used by TMG to GEDCOM when writing version 7+ GEDCOM files.
_CREF
n _CREF <Text>_CREF is used under a GEDCOM SOURCE_CITATION record to hold TMG's Citation Reference text.
_CREF is the default extension tag. If the TMG to GEDCOM user customizes the tag, TMG to GEDCOM will update the GEDCOM SCHMA and associate the customized tag with the static URI, "https://www.tmgtogedcom.com/en/extensions.htm#_CREF".
When the Citation Reference value meets the requirements of an external ID that TMG to GEDCOM recognizes, TMG to GEDCOM writes the Citation Reference value using the _CREX structure.
_CREF and _CREX are mutually exclusive. If one is present, the other will not be present.
_CREX
n _CREX <Text>
+1 TYPE <Special>
_CREX is used under a GEDCOM SOURCE_CITATION record to hold TMG's Citation Reference text. Unlike _CREF, the text must be an external identifier that meets the same requirements as a GEDCOM 7 EXID.
_CREX is the default extension tag. If the TMG to GEDCOM user customizes the tag, TMG to GEDCOM will update the GEDCOM SCHMA and associate the customized tag with the static URI, "https://www.tmgtogedcom.com/en/extensions.htm#_CREX".
_CREF and _CREX are mutually exclusive. If one is present, the other will not be present.
_PART and _PNAME
n _PART <Text>
+1 _PNAME <Text>_PART and _PNAME combine to provide a labeled text value called a "part". These are used to describe:
- Name details — TMG's name records include labeled subdivisions with components that do not map to GEDCOM name parts.
- Place details — TMG's place records include labeled subdivisions.
- Source details — TMG's citation and source records include labeled source elements.
_PART is used to define the value of the part and to act as the superstructure for the _PNAME substructure.
_PNAME is used to define the name of the part.
_PLAC
_PLAC is used to define both a Master Place Record and a Master Place Reference.
_PLAC is the default extension tag. If the TMG to GEDCOM user customizes the tag, TMG to GEDCOM will update the GEDCOM SCHMA and associate the customized tag with the static URI, "https://www.tmgtogedcom.com/en/extensions.htm#_PLAC".
Master Place Record
n @XREF:_PLAC@ _PLAC <List:Text>The payload of the _PLAC tag follows the same rules as the GEDCOM 7 PLAC tag payload.
The _PLAC tag may be followed by several other substructures. See: _SHORTPL and _PART.
Master Place Reference
n _PLAC @XREF:_PLAC@A master place list reference associates a master place record with the event superstructure.
_ROLE
n _ROLE <Text>Assigns the given text as the role for the subject of the event superstructure. The subject is always a principal.
_ROLE is the default extension tag. If the TMG to GEDCOM user customizes the tag, TMG to GEDCOM will update the GEDCOM SCHMA and associate the customized tag with the static URI, "https://www.tmgtogedcom.com/en/extensions.htm#_ROLE".
_SHORTPL
n _SHORTPL <Text>Defines a "short place value" with an _PLAC master place list record.
_SHORTPL is the default extension tag. If the TMG to GEDCOM user customizes the tag, TMG to GEDCOM will update the GEDCOM SCHMA and associate the customized tag with the static URI, "https://www.tmgtogedcom.com/en/extensions.htm#_SHORTPL".
_SOURFULL
n _SOURFULL <Text>Provides the full formatted source text associated with its SOUR superstructure.
_SOURFULL is the default extension tag. If the TMG to GEDCOM user customizes the tag, TMG to GEDCOM will update the GEDCOM SCHMA and associate the customized tag with the static URI, "https://www.tmgtogedcom.com/en/extensions.htm#_SOURFULL".
