    Hi, I work with the BBC’s Weather web team and we’d like to add
    some minimal RDFa to forecast pages to link them with their
    corresponding Geonames ID.

    The BBC URLs make use of GeoIDs, but there’s nothing that
    explicitly states (for example):
    http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/2637142 – is_a_forecast_for -
    http://sws.geonames.org/2637142

    Back in August on this list Keith Alexander suggested something like:
    <link rev="meteo:forecastPage"
     href="http://sws.geonames.org/2637142/
    <http://sws.geonames.org/2637142/>">

    which seems ideal, but unfortunately when I tried this on a
    sandbox it failed validation – apparently <linl rev=””> has been
    deprecated in HTML5.

    Has anyone come up against a similar problem, or have a suggestion
    for how else we might make this association?


What validator did you use? Can you try with [1]? HTML+RDFa re-introduces @rev, see [2].

Side note: I'm not sure it's meteo:forecastPage that you want to use to link a forecast to a geoname place. meteo:forecast looks like a better fit (domain: Place, range: Forecast).
