'''Please read [[how-to-play]] before making any edits.'''
'''<dfn>microformats</dfn>''' are HTML for marking up [[h-card|people, organizations]], [[h-event|events]], [[h-adr|locations]], [[h-entry|blog posts]], [[h-product|products]], [[h-review|reviews]], [[h-resume|resumes]], [[h-recipe|recipes]] etc. Sites use microformats to publish a standard API that is consumed and used by [[search engines]], [[browsers]], and other web sites. See [[what-are-microformats]] for more.


'''Please read [[process]] before proposing any new microformats.'''
* See '''[[microformats2]]''' for a technical overview and summary of how to use microformats on public web pages and for APIs.


== Introduction ==
If you are looking for the '''microformats.org blog''', see:

<span style="float:right">__TOC__</span>
==Introduction==
{{main|introduction|Introduction}}
This wiki is the central resource of the microformats community and provides microformats authoring guides, references, specifications, drafts, publishing patterns, research, brainstorming, and issue tracking.


[[what-are-microformats|What are microformats]]? And [[what-can-you-do-with-microformats|what can you do with them]]? See the [http://microformats.org/about/ about page] for an overview, and the [[introduction]] page for more info.  Recent [[press]], [[presentations]], [[podcasts]], and [[screencasts]] are also a good place for some background reading/listening. Frequently asked questions are answered in the [[faq]].  Want something or want to contribute?  Help with things [[to-do]].  Want to learn more in person? Check out microformats [[events]].
== Get Started==
{{main|get-started|Getting Started}}
Get started with microformats:


One popular definition from our [http://microformats.org/discuss/ mailing list] (see also: [[mailing-lists]]) is "simple conventions for embedding semantics in HTML to enable decentralized development." More precisely, microformats can be defined as:
* Make sure your pages and web apps use proper ‘[[posh|<abbr title="Plain Old Semantic HTML">POSH</abbr>]]’ <abbr title="HyperText Mark-up Language">HTML</abbr>.
:simple conventions
* Mark-up your contact info with [[h-card]], link to other profiles with [[rel-me]]
:for embedding semantic markup
* Mark-up your blog with [[h-entry]]. See https://indieweb.org/ for more
::for a specific problem domain
* Questions? Read the [[faq|frequently asked questions]], ask on [[IRC]]
:in human-readable (X)HTML/XML documents, Atom/RSS feeds, and "plain" XML
* Want to learn more in person? Check out microformats [[events]]
::that normalize existing content usage patterns
::using brief, descriptive class names
::often based on existing interoperable standards
:to enable decentralized development
::of resources, tools, and services

== Design Patterns ==
== Specifications ==
'''[[microformats2]]''' is stable, has a test suite, publishers, and interoperable implementations. Use it on public web pages and developing more parsers and applications.


Design patterns give microformat authors a vocabulary for expressing their ideas consistently with what has already been done. ''If you're tempted to try your hand at writing a microformat '''[[process|read this first]]'''!''
Current, stable microformats open standard specifications.

== Examples ==
=== rel microformats ===
* [[examples]]
Some microformats require only a rel attribute and are widely supported by consuming sites and software.
* [[zen-garden]] {{NewMarker}}
* [[rel-author]] - link to the author's home page (from an article)
* [[rel-enclosure]] - link to attachments (e.g. files) to download and cache
* [[rel-license]] - licensed content
* [[rel-nofollow]] - links in untrusted 3rd party content
* [[rel-tag]] - tag posts and pages by subject
* [[XFN]] - social relationships and [[rel-me]] links among profiles for the same person


=== Classic Microformats ===
In addition use well established classic microformats for the primary subject of a page for legacy [[search engines]] support.


== Tools & Test Cases & Additional Research ==
* [[hatom|hAtom]] - blog posts and other date-stamped content
* [[hcalendar|hCalendar]] - events
* [[hcard|hCard]] - people, organizations, contacts
* [[hlisting|hListing]] - listings for products or services
* [[hmedia|hMedia]] - media info about images, video, audio
* [[hproduct|hProduct]] - products
* [[hrecipe|hRecipe]] - cooking+baking recipes
* [[hresume|hResume]] - individual resumes and CVs
* [[hreview|hReview]] - individual reviews and ratings
* [[hreview-aggregate|hReview-aggregate]] - aggregate reviews and ratings


The first place to look for examples, code, and test cases is in the pages for each individual microformat. There are only a few cross-cutting tools and services that need to process more than one microformat. This section is intended for editors, parsers, validators, test cases, and other information relevant across multiple microformats.
* [[adr|adr]] - address location information
* [[geo|geo]] - latitude &amp; longitude location ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WGS84 WGS84] geographic coordinates)

==== Classic Drafts ====
*[[selected-test-cases-from-the-web]]
Drafts are classic microformats which have varying degrees of support by consuming applications. They are stable and yet still open to change based on consuming application support, per the [[process]] to become specifications.

* [[xoxo|XOXO]] - outlines


=== microformats wiki languages with over 2 articles ===
''If you're tempted to try your hand at writing a microformat please read '''[[process|the process]]''' page first!'' and then take a look at [[exploratory-discussions]] for details of prior research, analysis of real-world [[examples]], existing formats, and brainstorming of possible new microformats, per the microformats [[process]].

Past specifications, drafts, and exploratory discussions which have either lacked (or lost) wide publishing support, implementation, or have been superceded by newer specs (see also [[process#related_issues_questions_regarding_document_stages|when does it make sense to demote a microformat spec]]). These may eventually be retired, deprecated, or reincorporated into other exploratory discussions.

For now, see the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Multilingual_coordination Wikipedia page on Multilingual coordination], and [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/How_to_start_a_new_Wikipedia How to start a new Wikipedia] for some good general tips, advice, and community conventions.
== Resources ==
See [[resources]].


You may want to start with the list of [[stable-pages]], which are pages that are relatively stable, and have only minimal/editorial changes, which makes them much easier to keep in sync with the English versions, by using the [[Special:Watchlist|my watchlist]] feature (use it to watch the pages you've translated for changes).
== User centric development ==
*[[user-interface]]
*[[data-portability]]
*[[social-network-portability]]
*[http://indiewebcamp.com/ indieweb]


Page naming: for the translated version of a page, use the same name for the page, and simply add the RFC 3066 language identifier code as a dash suffix. E.g. for the French version, [[Main_Page]] becomes [[Main_Page-fr]], and [[how-to-play]] becomes [[how-to-play-fr]].

microformats are HTML for marking up people, organizations, events, locations, blog posts, products, reviews, resumes, recipes etc. Sites use microformats to publish a standard API that is consumed and used by search engines, browsers, and other web sites. See what-are-microformats for more.

  • See microformats2 for a technical overview and summary of how to use microformats on public web pages and for APIs.

If you are looking for the microformats.org blog, see:

Introduction

Main article: introduction

This wiki is the central resource of the microformats community and provides microformats authoring guides, references, specifications, drafts, publishing patterns, research, brainstorming, and issue tracking.

Get Started

Main article: get-started

Get started with microformats:

How to contribute

Want to join in and contribute?

This wiki has a number of enhancements to assist development and contributions to microformats. Before you start editing, see the wiki introduction page for instructions.

Specifications

microformats2 is stable, has a test suite, publishers, and interoperable implementations. Use it on public web pages and developing more parsers and applications.

Current, stable microformats open standard specifications.

Parsing

If you are implementing a microformats2 parser, see:

Vocabularies

microformats2 vocabularies:

rel microformats

Some microformats require only a rel attribute and are widely supported by consuming sites and software.

  • rel-author - link to the author's home page (from an article)
  • rel-enclosure - link to attachments (e.g. files) to download and cache
  • rel-license - licensed content
  • rel-nofollow - links in untrusted 3rd party content
  • rel-tag - tag posts and pages by subject
  • XFN - social relationships and rel-me links among profiles for the same person

Classic Microformats

In addition use well established classic microformats for the primary subject of a page for legacy search engines support.

  • adr - address location information
  • geo - latitude & longitude location (WGS84 geographic coordinates)

Classic Drafts

Drafts are classic microformats which have varying degrees of support by consuming applications. They are stable and yet still open to change based on consuming application support, per the process to become specifications.

  • hNews - news articles, extension of hAtom
  • XMDP - define a microformat vocabulary / profile
  • XOXO - outlines

If you're tempted to try your hand at writing a microformat please read the process page first! and then take a look at exploratory-discussions for details of prior research, analysis of real-world examples, existing formats, and brainstorming of possible new microformats, per the microformats process.

Design Patterns

Design patterns are common uses of markup across microformats.

Archived

Past specifications, drafts, and exploratory discussions which have either lacked (or lost) wide publishing support, implementation, or have been superceded by newer specs (see also when does it make sense to demote a microformat spec). These may eventually be retired, deprecated, or reincorporated into other exploratory discussions.

Examples

Resources

See resources.

User centric development

Shared work areas

Tools, test cases, additional research

The first place to look for examples, code, and test cases is in the pages for each individual microformat. There are only a few cross-cutting tools and services that need to process more than one microformat. That section is intended for editors, parsers, validators, test cases, and other information relevant across multiple microformats.

 

Microformats wiki translations

You may read and edit microformats articles in many other languages:

See also other-languages, and how-to-start-a-new-translation.

community

microformats.org is a community focused on using an empirical (rather than aspirational) process to research web data & information human publishing behaviors, openly document it on our wiki (http://microformats.org/wiki/), discuss it in IRC (irc://irc.freenode.net/microformats), then brainstorm ideas & proposals based on that research for simple formats based on HTML to interoperably represent that information on the web, incrementally implement, and iterate.
