Representative hCard Issues

These are externally raised issues about representative hCards with broadly varying degrees of merit. Thus some issues are rejected for a number of obvious reasons (but still documented here in case they are re-raised), and others contain longer discussions. Some issues may be accepted and perhaps cause changes or improved explanations in the spec.

Submitted issues may (and probably will) be edited and rewritten for better terseness, clarity, calmness, rationality, and as neutral a point of view as possible.

Issues

    1. There are accessibility and usability issues with linking a page to itself (to be expanded). Note prior discussion at hcard-issues#2006 dated 2006-10-21

      • Possible solution - allow class="representative vcard" or similar. Andy Mabbett 15:44, 2 Feb 2008 (PST)

    1. Not all representative hCards are about people; some are about organisations or venues, so cannot use rel="me" (see, for example that for the BBFO, one of several on http://www.westmidlandbirdclub.com/bardsey
      • Possible solution - allow class="representative vcard" or similar. Andy Mabbett 16:03, 2 Feb 2008 (PST)

Template

Consider using this format (copy and paste this to the end of the list to add your issues; replace ~~~ with an external link if preferred) to report issues or feedback, so that issues can show up in hAtom subscriptions of this issues page. If open issues lack this markup, please add it.

Please post one issue per entry, to make them easier to manage. Avoid combining multiple issues into single reports, as this can confuse or muddle feedback, and puts a burden of separating the discrete issues onto someone else who 1. may not have the time, and 2. may not understand the issue in the same way as the original reporter.
