We could put rel=something on loads of our links (http://microformats.org/wiki/existing-rel-values#formats), and start putting RDFa and microdata all over the place. hreflang by itself wouldn't take up much space, but adding every piece of metadata of similar possible utility would make our output unreasonably long. For sanity's sake, we need to draw a line as to what kind of metadata we're going to output, and it's got to be more restrictive than "someone might be able to use it". > Current draft HTML 5 spec for hreflang attribute: > http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/links.html#attr-hyperlink-hreflang You don't want to use the /TR version of W3C specs -- that's usually months outdated. Use the dev.w3.org version instead: http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/links.html#attr-hyperlink-hreflang (Currently that's also labeled Working Draft, but only because a new Working Draft is awaiting publication. Usually it's labeled Editor's Draft.) Alternatively, use the WHATWG version so you don't have to worry about the W3C's crazy versioning scheme: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/links.html#attr-hyperlink-hreflang The WHATWG version also includes extra features that aren't included in the W3C version because of feature freeze, plus a handful of minor differences. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
