A WHO normative publication: a guideline, guidance, recommendation summary, or classification. Metadata follows Dublin Core, which HealthInterventions already uses. publicationType distinguishes normative guideline from guidance from summary table — a summary table restates recommendations made elsewhere, and conflating the two makes provenance wrong. identifier holds ISBN/ISSN/DOI, as CDHIv2 already does. sha256 pins the PDF. Derives from DublinCore (smart-base input/fsh/models/DublinCore.fsh); title, creator, publisher, date, identifier, language, rights are its elements. Class IRI: http://smart.who.int/kg/publication.
