I wouldn’t use NumberId as there is no guarantee that this ID
will be numeric.

Paul,
That is helpful feedback. I'll revisit on the use analysis.
So perhaps better would be to have NumberId as the element and RefId for
the internal one. Clearly when an attribute its being used to indicate
linkage between content such as polling place description and geo map data, and
so on.
Thanks, DW

Hi David,
The original intention was that Id exists as an element when it is
an external Id such as an electoral roll number. It is used as an attribute
when it is an internal system Id.

Team,
This might be an easy one to fix? We appear to use
"Id" as an attribute everywhere - but we have 4 different definitions
for it.
In emlcore we could add a single type definition - and then
reference that everywhere "Id" occurs.
A small step for EML...
Are there one or two other candidates? I don't want to have
too many of these to do at this point - but obvious ones that are highly used
seem like worthwhile to fix at this point.
Thanks, DW
