Here you have a short example fragment from one of our DTDs. Yes, it
wasn't very pleasant to write, but luckily there aren't that many
elements in it.

<!ENTITY % xlinkit-namespace-prefix "xlinkit">
<!ENTITY % LinkBase "%xlinkit-namespace-prefix;:LinkBase">
<!ENTITY % ConsistencyLink "%xlinkit-namespace-prefix;:ConsistencyLink">
<!ENTITY % Locator "%xlinkit-namespace-prefix;:Locator">
<!ENTITY % State "%xlinkit-namespace-prefix;:State">
<!ENTITY % Go "%xlinkit-namespace-prefix;:Go">
 
<!-- A linkbase consists of a set of consistency links
     that result from the evaluation of the consistency rules -->
 
<!ELEMENT %LinkBase; (%ConsistencyLink;)*>
<!ATTLIST %LinkBase;
        docSet          CDATA           #REQUIRED
        ruleSet         CDATA           #REQUIRED
        date            CDATA           #REQUIRED>
