I don't agree that you can simply use rel="vote-for" because it
incorrectly gives the impression that you're "voting for" when really
you were "voted for",
It doesn't give the impression that you're ‘voting for’ though — the
use of rev or rel attribute determines that.
URL A is a vote for URL B.
That is the statement described by vote links.
Which of those URLs is the current page is determined by choice of
rel or rev, *not* a grammatical variant of the word ‘vote’.
rel="voted-for"
rel="voted-against"
rel="vote-abstained"
The only difference here is the tense of the word ‘vote’. Moving
‘vote’ from the present tense to the past tense doesn't change the
direction of the relationship.
rel="vote-for" would mean ‘The page I am linking to is a vote for
this page’
rev="vote-for" means ‘This page is a for for the page I am linking to’
Separate terms are really not needed to express what you're asking for.
