Description
The representation of a concept, in the form of a drawing, map, graph, diagram, photo, engraving or the like, which helps understanding the article.
Comments

Note that the figure can only be in the form of an image (“mediaobject”).

A figure must contain only “image”-type media objects, even if the content model of the “mediaobject” element includes “audio” and “video” elements.

The content of the “no” sub-element must be entered as it appears in the article, with or without initial or final punctuation. It consists of a mention of the type of object and its number, such as: (ex : Figure 1, Fig. 1, Map 1, Photo 1, Diagram 1, Graph 1, etc.)

Generally speaking, figures referenced in a paragraph should be presented after that paragraph.

Use the “figure” element only to tag objects that correspond semantically to figures and not tables (“table”) or boxes (“box”) that might mistakenly contain numbering with the word “figure”.
