summary: >-
  The entity graph of a validation response, derived from the XML Schema embedded in the
  W3C-published WSDL 2.0 description. It is a single-root report tree, not a resource model —
  the service has no persistent entities, no identifiers and no relationships across calls.
entities:
  - name: validateURI
    kind: request
    description: Validate the document at a URL. HTML or CSS.
    fields:
      - {name: uri, type: anyURI, required: true}

      - {name: warning, type: int, required: false}
      - {name: lang, type: string, required: false}

    description: Errors grouped by the stylesheet they came from — an @import pulls in more.

identifiers:
  scheme: none
  detail: >-
    No opaque ids, no id prefixes. The only identifier in the model is the uri of the document
    validated, which is supplied by the caller and echoed back.
notes:
  - >-
    The one-to-many between tErrors and tErrorlist is the model's only non-obvious edge: a
    single validated document can produce several error lists, one per stylesheet reached
    through @import or a <link> in the validated HTML.
