<h1>hCard advocacy</h1>
{{TOC-right}}
Adding [[hcard|hCard]] to these sites would make them quite handy for their users and for being indexed.

== Online Profiles ==
=== Sites to check ===
The following sites may have hCard or XFN support and need to be checked and placed into lists on [[hcard-supporting-user-profiles]] and [[hcard-xfn-supporting-friends-lists]] as well. Feel free to add icons/logos for each of these as well.

=== User Profiles ===
Nearly every website that has a login has a page representing the public profile of the user that other users can see and interact with. Many such sites already [[hcard-supporting-user-profiles|support hCard]] (e.g. ClaimID.com, Flickr.com, Technorati.com). Here are some that I think would benefit from the addition of hCard to their profile / user pages, making them [[hcard-supporting-user-profiles]].

Feel free to add more such sites that have a social network profile-like component and we'll see what we can do, as well as add icons/logos for each of these as well.
* Wikimedia - including this site, Wikipedia (See [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Microformats WikiProject Microformats]), Wikitravel, etc.
**It would be nice if <nowiki>[[User:YOURNAME]]</nowiki> links generated proper (mini)hCards. ([http://microformats.org/wiki?title=to-do&diff=12177&oldid=12173#Lazyweb per SteveIvy]; moved from 'to-do')
* http://360.yahoo.com
* http://alexa.com has online profiles for domains with contact information. Would be great if they could add hCard to those. 2007-04-18 [[User:Tantek]] requested of [[User:BenWest]] e.g.:
** http://www.alexa.com/data/details?url=alexa.com/
** http://www.alexa.com/data/details?url=w3.org/
* [http://dodgeball.com/ Dodgeball] profiles and venues need [[hcard|hCard]] for people and organizations
** [http://www.dodgeball.com/user?uid=30209 a profile]
** [http://www.dodgeball.com/venue?vid=23551 a venue] - could also use [[hreview|hReview]] for the user reviews listed there for the venue
* [http://www.icq.com/people ICQ people], where they show people's profiles and have a few ways of contacting and/or connection to people.
* http://youtube.com The very popular YouTube have profiles that do include some information that might use [[hcard|hCard]].
* [http://www.facebook.com Facebook] is a very popular (over 13 million members) community.
**Requested support of microformats in [http://flickr.com/photos/56624456@N00/1399881855/ openly asked question to Mark Zuckerberg (founder of Facebook) during Q&A at TechCrunch40 conference], and got [http://therealmccrea.wordpress.com/2007/09/18/facebook-to-support-open-standards/ lukewarm reply]. Glimmer of hope: "When it's important to our users, we'll do it." Thus if you are a Facebook user, please make a request to them to support microformats and tell them it is important to you. Feel free to add your name below. 2007-09-17 [[User:Tantek|Tantek]]
*** Additional notes of Mark's response to Q above: "fits into context of push to open up in more ways, but keep in mind we're a really small company, under 300, so with respect to open standards, it's a matter of priorities. When it's important to our users we'll do it." Notes taken by John McCrea of Plaxo at TechCrunch40 conference.
**Requested in message to developer, 2007-09-28 [[User:AndyMabbett|Andy Mabbett]]
* [http://anobii.com Anobii] - I asked them if they could implement hCard-supporting profiles and XFN on 2007-10-05 - [[User:JulianStahnke|Julian Stahnke]]
** Response: We will definitely spend some time to consider the suggestion.
** Got another mail from one of their developers, they’re looking into it.

=== hCard XFN friends lists ===
In addition, if sites with people profiles have friends lists, we should encourage them to add support for [[hcard-xfn-supporting-friends-lists]]. Both of these help [[social-network-portability]] and help the site become a node on the [[open-social-web]]. Feel free to add icons/logos for each of these as well.
* http://360.yahoo.com
* [http://dodgeball.com/ Dodgeball]

=== Company Profiles ===
* [http://getsatisfaction.com/ Satisfaction Unlimited], has company profiles, e.g. http://getsatisfaction.com/satisfaction/ that could be marked up with hCards.
** Contacted Ted Grubb at the company and requested hCards for company and its employees for all their company profiles. [[User:Tantek|Tantek]] 11:24, 2 Sep 2007 (PDT)

== Online Venues ==
There are many sites that offer pages that represent organizations and venues that could benefit from being marked up with hCard. [http://local.yahoo.com/ Yahoo Local] venues are marked up with hCards for example. Here are some more sites that have venues that would benefit from hCard markup.
* Yelp.com
* http://opentable.com - a site for making restaurant reservations
** [[hcard|hCard]] for restaurants
** [[hcalendar|hCalendar]] for free busy times at restaurants
** [[hcalendar|hCalendar]] for your reservations
** Tantek has emailed a friend who is a former employee of OpenTable with the above three requests, in the hopes she can pass on the message. In addition, Ryan King may know someone in marketing there. [[User:Tantek|Tantek]] 16:57, 30 Sep 2007 (PDT)

== Plugins for and modifications of web-applications ==
Many web-applications use plugin-systems to change their behavior and content. Most notable is probably web-forums and blogs. Many of these have a community of coders that develop plugins or code to modify the default behavior of these web-applications. Here are some sites where it might be interesting to develop hcard-related plugins/mods.

=== WYSIWYG buttons ===
In addition to getting them to markup obvious references to users/usernames with hCard, it would be great to see them update their WYSIWYG authoring interfaces (little creator/style buttons that often line up just above the top of a blog post editing textarea for creating links, lists etc.) to add a "person" button (perhaps with an icon http://microformats.org/wiki/skins/monobook/user.gif) which simply inserts [[hCard]] markup for you, or better yet, lets you pick someone from your address book, and then inserts an inline hCard with their name, URL (and perhaps even your [[XFN]] relationship to them) for you. While they're at it, perhaps a similar button/feature for easily inserting an [[hCalendar]] event.

=== Tools ===

== Organization Contacts ==
Many companies and organizations have about or contact pages that could benefit from being marked up with hCard. [http://technorati.com/about/contact.html Technorati's contact page] for example is both marked up with hCard and has a convenient "Add to Address Book" hCard to vCard converter link. The following company sites could benefit from similar markup (and, until user agents support hCards natively, "Add to Address Book" links). [[User:Tantek|Tantek]] 17:44, 13 Dec 2006 (PST)

== Individual hCards ==
Getting these sites to at least add hCard to their home page or contact info page and then [http://pingerati.net/ping/ ping Pingerati] would be an excellent start with getting them some experience with microformats and thinking about adding microformats to other places in their sites that make sense:

advocacy

2008-04-10T22:31:36Z

MonkeyFormats: /* Event-sites */

<h1> Advocacy </h1>
A lot can be done to help advocate the use of microformats. Often, simply by taking an existing site, and adding the suggested microformatting to a few of its pages as examples is all that is necessary to help the developers of the site add the microformats to the site itself. Applications, such as browsers, could also use some guidance on how to best support microformats.

Sometimes advocacy requires comparison and analysis of alternative technologies or approaches. As [[User:MikeSchinkel|Mike Schinkel]] pointed out, we need good answers to comments like "No, we're going to use XYZ instead...".

The goal for this page is to include pointers for how to advocate microformats on new sites and on existing sites that are considering or using alternative approaches, as well as applications that can benefit from supporting microformats.

When contacting potential microformat users, you may wish to refer to [[notable-users|some notable users]].

For general resources for marketing microformats, see [[spread-microformats]].

== Adding Microformats to Existing Sites ==
Add sites here that you think would benefit from the addition of microformats. For now they are grouped by the microformat which would primarily benefit the site. Feel free to take a look at some of the sites on this list, document sample pages to be microformatted, add microformats to them, and then add the before/after of the key sections of mark-up to another wiki page for that site.

Successes are also noted; the most recent are flagged as {{SuccessMarker}}.

If your successes resulted from emails that you sent to site owners/developers, please consider sharing your successful advocacy emails on the [[advocacy-email-samples]] page, and along with each email sample, list the sites which responded positively to your email. This way others in the community can learn from your success and hopefully use your email samples to contact additional sites and get them to adopt microformats.

===hCard===

;See [[hcard-advocacy]]

===hCalendar===
Here are sites that could use [[hcalendar|hCalendar]] to provide more/better functionality to their users.

For ideas of sites (rather than specific sites), see the subsection at the end of this subsection

==== conferences ====
===== W3C track at WWW2006 =====
* DanC offers a 150 point bounty to anybody who takes [http://www.w3.org/2006/05/w3c-track the W3C track at WWW2006] and adds hCalendar markup and sends it to connolly@w3.org,www-archive@w3.org 
** DanC, did this happen? Could you renew your bounty for WWW2008?

==== travel location ====
* [http://dopplr.com/ Dopplr] is a site that lets users publish their travel plans to other users.
** It would be great if they let you subscribe to external travel hCalendar (e.g. [http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/#travl DanC travel]) and incorporated it into your Dopplr travel data. Originally suggested by Dan Connolly.

==== Event-sites ====
Sites that host online calendars of different sorts, containing information from many different areas. (These could also make use of hCard, since they often contain contact information to a lot of different places.)

==== ideas for possible hCalendar sites ====
=====Travel Industry=====
any travel site is based on calender type data!
Airlines, Hotels etc.
Sure it will be nice to get your reservation confirmation, but what about suppliers "syndicating" their product details that are calendar based? This would allow any other to mash-up supplier offerings.
Sorry no examples... but I hope this will stimulate others to add some if the know them or just to make others think about possibilities.

=== hReview ===

Sites which currently offer ''downloadable'' routes or tracks (as KML, GPX or similar files) could also offer a "view on-line" option, with the coordinates listed on a web page, marked-up with Geo (and hCard) microformats, which could then be parsed with whatever tool the user chooses.:

* [http://www.tierrawiki.org/wiki/ TerraWiki]

=== Adr ===
Adding "[[adr|Adr]]" markup to these sites would make them even more useful:
*Various postcode <--> address lookup sites
** e.g. [http://www.royalmail.com/portal/rm/addressfinder Royal Mail (UK)] - enter a valid postcode (e.g. "B13 9PW").

===rel-tag===
====Google as rel-tag namespace====
A Google search for 'sparrow' resolves to http://www.google.com/search?&q=sparrow, if not the unwieldy http://www.google.com/search?hs=TUz&hl=en&lr=&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-GB%3Aofficial&q=sparrow&btnG=Search - likewise http://www.google.com/search?&q=%22black+redstart%22 for ' "black redstart" '. If Google can be persuaded to also accept, say, '''<nowiki>http://www.google.com/search/sparrow</nowiki>''' and '''<nowiki>http://www.google.com/search/black_redstart</nowiki>''' as being equivalent (and assuming that the latter term searches for ' "black redstart" ', with the quote marks), then Google would become a namespace for rel-tag.

== Adding Microformats to Applications ==

User-agents (browsers, etc.) should support microformats natively. For instance, a user should not need to use a third party application or web service to add address details or events from a microformat-using web page to their address book or calendar program.

===Browsers===

In addition to the following, third-party developers should be encouraged to make their relevant browser add-ons microforamt aware; or to create new add-ons with microformat capabilities.

====Firefox====
===== Firefox developments =====
*Mozilla are "brainstorming" developments for Firefox 3.0 and beyond, and have a page on microformat handling at http://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/Feature_Brainstorming:Microformat_Handling

=====ReminderFox=====
*The makers of the [http://reminderfox.mozdev.org/ ReminderFox] extension have put hCalendar support on their [http://reminderfox.mozdev.org/userrequests.html ReminderFox "to do" list].

=====LinkAlert=====
*The [http://conlan89.googlepages.com/linkalert LinkAlert] extension could signal when a link is marked as a tag (likewise for other "rel" attributes). [[User:AndyMabbett|Andy Mabbett]]

===Screenreaders===
*Screenreaders (e.g [http://www.freedomscientific.com/fs_products/software_jaws.asp Jaws]) could recognise telephone number components of hCards, to differentiate them from other strings of digits. [[User:AndyMabbett|Andy Mabbett]] 13:02, 9 Dec 2006 (PST)
** Additional to this, I believe that screen reader users would benefit from being able to recognise any of the microformats.

implementations

2008-04-10T20:50:15Z

MonkeyFormats: /* Greasemonkey */ added Monkeyformats

<h1>Microformats Implementations</h1>
{{TOC-right}}
This page lists the applications, plugins, sample code, services, tools that produce or consume microformats. This is only a partial list. If you know other services or tools for or supporting microformats, please add them, link to their [[implementors]], and list what specific microformats they support.

== Implementations vs. Examples in the Wild ==
This page is ''only'' for implementations of tools that publish or consume microformats. Companies simply ''using'' microformats on their pages/sites belong in the "Examples in the wild" sections of those respective microformats, e.g.:
* [[hcard-examples-in-wild|hCard Examples in the wild]]
* [[hcalendar-examples-in-wild|hCalendar Examples in the wild]]
* etc.

== Editing This Page ==
When you find an implementation, first make sure that it is ''actually'' an implementation as opposed to ''just'' an [[hcard-examples-in-wild|example in the wild]] of publishing microformats (see above).

Second, note the name of the ''tool or service'' separately from the name of the ''developer(s)'' who wrote the tool/service.

Add a third level heading with the name of the tool/service ( <code>=== Name of Tool ===</code> ) to the Applications / Plugins / Services / Tools section, sorted alphabetically by name of tool/service. Add a top level list item (*) just below the heading with an external link to the tool/service, along with a link to evidence of their support for microformats, and mention (and locally link) each microformat that is supported.

Add a nested list item <code>* by Name of Developer</code> and local to wiki hyperlink the Name of Developer to a fragment identifier in the [[implementors]] page, e.g. Apple Computer would be linked like this: <code><nowiki>[[implementors#Apple_Computer|Apple Computer]]</nowiki></code>

Check to see if there is an entry for the developer in the [[implementors|list of implementors]], if not add them there. Add a link to the developer's home page followed by "has implemented microformats in:".

In the entry for the developer, add a list item <code>* Name of Tool</code> and local to wiki hyperlink the Name of Tool to a fragment identifier in this page, e.g. X2V would be linked like this: <code><nowiki>[[implementations#X2V|X2V]]</nowiki></code>

Save the page and make sure that each fragment ID local hyperlink when clicked scrolls you to the right spot (for the developer, and for the tool). Make any fix-up edits as necessary. That's it!

== Reporting Bugs ==
In short, [[put-it-on-the-wiki]]. In particular, add bug reports, with URL(s) to a valid demonstrative test case(s) of course, to the listing of an implementation on this page, OR on the specific implementations wiki page (e.g. [[hcard-implementations]]). Please describe why you think it is a bug (user interface, cosmetic, violates a spec page, e.g. for problems parsing hCards, reference which part of [[hcard-parsing]] the implementation appears to not be following).

If you have a sense of urgency for getting that particular bug fixed in that implementation, you may email [http://microformats.org/discuss/ microformats-dev] with the URL of that implementation on the wiki page, and *summarize* the bug (the full description being on the wiki page instead).

== Formats ==
Most microformat specifications have an "implementations" section, e.g.:
*[[rel-tag#Implementations|rel-tag implementations]]
*[[vote-links#Implementations|vote-link implementations]]
*[[xoxo#Implementations|XOXO implementations]]

In addition, some microformat specifications have separate implementation pages:
*[[hcalendar-implementations|hCalendar implementations]]
*[[hcard-implementations|hCard Implementations]]
*[[xfn-implementations|XFN implementations]]

== Applications / Plugins / Services / Tools ==
This is an alphabetical listing of all applications, plugins (grouped with their app/tool), services and tools that implement microformats, along with the list of microformats that are supported, and the company and/or developers responsible for it.

As a user, the implementations listed below will automatically help you use microformats and help your data portability and interoperability with other apps and services.

Please help complete this list! If you know of additional apps/plugins/services/tools that support microformats, please add them!

Note: this section is only for listing specific ''implementations''. The list of ''implementors'' is in the [[implementors#Companies / Developers / Organizations|Companies / Developers / Organizations]] section on the [[implementors]] page.
