Hi Mat TW5 doesn't use <article> for tiddlers at the moment, it just uses a <div> (it does use the related <section> element for the sidebar and the story river).
There's not much advantage that I'm aware of; the spec doesn't define any special behaviour for the <article> element, it's purpose is to identify structure for semantic purposes (so it might be used by a web crawler for instance). Changing over to an article element has the potential disadvantage that it would break backwards compatibility with CSS selectors used to target the tiddler frame. > Maybe, somehow, <article> (coupled with an id) would simplify for non-tiddlywiki sites to contain tiddlers they find? So, yes, that's about right. > Or even for ourselves, to single out a tiddler e.g for embedding iframing instead of, as I believe it is now, whole TWs. It doesn't help embedding TW content, sadly.
