=== Inspiration and Acknowledgments ===
Thanks to everyone who has given feedback on VoteLinks. Thanks especially to EtanWexler, who provided the first really good documentation that VoteLinks should be using 'rev' instead of 'rel' (see [[VoteLinksFAQ]]), and John Allsopp who similarly challenged the use of 'rel', and helped co-author the [[RelFAQ]] exploring questions and issues about the use of the HTML4 'rel', 'rev' attributes and linktypes in general.

== Introduction ==
Indexing and tracking applications treat all links as endorsements, or expressions of support. This is a problem, as we need to link to those we disagree with as well, to discuss why.

== Specification ==
VoteLinks is an [[elemental-microformat|elemental microformat]], one of several [[microformats|microformat]] open standards.
We propose a set of three new values for the rev attribute of the <a> (hyperlink) tag in HTML.

The new values are "vote-for" "vote-abstain" or "vote-against", which are mutually exclusive, and represent agreement, abstention or indifference, and disagreement respectively.

A link without an explicit vote 'rev' value is deemed to have value "vote-for" or "vote-abstain", depending on the application.

Additional human-readable commentary can be added using the existing 'title' attribute, which most browsers show as a rollover.

Examples:
<pre><nowiki>
<a rev="vote-for" href="http://ragingcow.blogspot.com"
title="neat spoof">Raging Cow</a>
<a rev="vote-against" href="http://ragingcow.com"
title="nasty corn syrup drink">Raging Cow</a>
</nowiki></pre>

=== Deprecated: Using 'rel' for VoteLinks ===
A previous draft of the specification used the 'rel' value instead of the 'rev' attribute. Analysis and feedback has demonstrated this to have been inappropriate use of the 'rel' attribute, when the 'rev' attribute was much more important. See the [[RelFAQ]] for more details.

Implementations MAY support links with the VoteLinks values in the 'rel' attribute for backward compatibility with any existing VoteLinks content.

Authors MUST NOT use 'rel' for VoteLinks values.

<h1> geo </h1>
*http://rbach.priv.at/2006/buttons/geo.png
'''geo''' (pronounced "gee-oh") is a simple format for marking up [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WGS84 WGS84] geographic coordinates (latitude; longitude), suitable for embedding in (X)HTML, Atom, RSS, and arbitrary XML. '''geo''' is a 1:1 representation of the "geo" property in the vCard standard ([http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2426.txt RFC2426]) in XHTML, one of several open [[microformats|microformat]] standards.

=== Inspiration and Acknowledgments ===
Thanks to everyone who participated in the [[geo-bof-2005-06-30|Geo Microformat BOF at O'Reilly's Where 2.0 conference]], and in particular to [http://radar.oreilly.com/nat/ Nat Torkington] and Vee McMillen of [http://oreilly.com O'Reilly] for [http://conferences.oreillynet.com/cs/where2005/view/e_sess/7476 arranging and hosting the BOF]. Thanks to Chris Hibbbert for providing the [http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=dc4754bf-64d5-4f28-8715-45ad2505c86f real world geo-caching example].

== Introduction and Background ==
The vCard standard ([http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2426.txt RFC2426]), has been broadly and interoperably implemented (e.g. Apple's Address Book application). The [[hcard|hCard]] microformat has similarly received significant adoption, from numerous sites publishing the format, to hCard to vCard proxies, to clientside javascript parsers.

At the [http://conferences.oreillynet.com/where/ Where 2.0 conference] in June 2005, there was widespread recognition that the community needed a way to simply and easily publish visible, extractable, geographic location information on the Web, given how often bloggers, and numerous other sites publish such information. The [[geo-bof-2005-06-30|geo microformat BOF]] discussed this very topic, and concluded with a consensus decision to just try using ''geo'' from vCard/hCard.

This specification introduces the '''geo''' microformat, which is a 1:1 representation of the aforementioned ''geo'' property from the vCard standard, by simply reusing the ''geo'' property and sub-properties as-is from the [[hcard|hCard]] microformat.

Publishers can both embed '''geo''' addresses directly in their web pages and feeds, as well as markup existing latitude/longitude coordinates in the context of the rest of the information in their web pages and feeds.

If the publisher knows and is publishing the ''name'' of the location in addition to its geo lat/long, then the publisher MUST use [[hcard|hCard]] instead of just '''geo''' to publish the name and geo lat/long of the location.

If the publisher knows and is publishing the address of the location, OR if the address of the location was what was actually entered by a human, and the publisher simply turned that into lat/long using some sort of a service, then the publisher SHOULD use [[adr]] to publish the actual human entered address information since that communicates far more semantic information than a simple geo lat/long coordinate.

== Semantic XHTML Design Principles ==
{{semantic-xhtml-design-principles}}

== Format ==
=== Singular Properties ===

Note that all the properties in '''geo''' are singular properties, and thus the first descendant element with that class should take effect, any others being ignored.

=== Human vs. Machine readable ===

If an <code><abbr></code> element is used for a property, then the <code>title</code> attribute of the <code><abbr></code> element is the value of the property, instead of the contents of the element, which instead provide a human presentable version of the value.

=== Value excerpting ===

Sometimes only part of an element which is the equivalent for a property should be used for the value of the property. For this purpose, the special class name <code>value</code> is used to excerpt out the subset of the element that is the value of the property. See [[hcard|hCard]] for details on this.

=== Root Class Name ===

The root class name for an geo location is <code>geo</code>.

=== Property List ===

This is the list of properties in geo, taken from [[hcard|hCard]]:

* latitude
* longitude

=== XMDP Profile ===

See [[hcard-profile]] for the [http://gmpg.org/xmdp XMDP] profile of hCard which contains the above complete list of properties, with references to their RFC 2426 definitions.

=== Parsing Details ===

See [[hcard-parsing|hCard parsing]], with the only difference being that "geo" is the root class name, rather than "vcard".

== Examples ==

This section is informative.

=== Example from RFC2426 ===

Section 3.4.2 of RFC2426 has a simple geo example:

<pre><nowiki>
GEO:37.386013;-122.082932
</nowiki></pre>

this vCard fragment as a geo, as [http://microformats.org/wiki/hcard-examples#3.4.2_GEO_Type_Definition first documented on the hCard examples page]:

<pre><nowiki>
<div class="geo">GEO:
<span class="latitude">37.386013</span>,
<span class="longitude">-122.082932</span>
</div>
</nowiki></pre>

this geo could be displayed as: 

<div class="geo">GEO: <span class="latitude">37.386013</span>, <span class="longitude">-122.082932</span></div>

Note that this is a '''live''' geo microformat, which will be found on this page by parsers.

=== Real world geo example ===

Here is a sample of published lat/long info (from [http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=dc4754bf-64d5-4f28-8715-45ad2505c86f geocaching: Noble Steed]):

<pre><nowiki>
N 37° 24.491 W 122° 08.313
</nowiki></pre>

With geo markup:

<pre><nowiki>
<div class="geo">
<abbr class="latitude" title="37.408183">N 37° 24.491</abbr>
<abbr class="longitude" title="-122.13855">W 122° 08.313</abbr>
</div>
</nowiki></pre>

This geo might be displayed as: 

<div class="geo"><abbr class="latitude" title="37.408183">N 37° 24.491</abbr> <abbr class="longitude" title="-122.13855">W 122° 08.313</abbr>
</div>

Again, this is a '''live''' example.

Note that since the real world example used a more human readable presentation of the geo coordinates, we use the [[abbr-design-pattern]] to keep that more human readable presentation, and in addition provide the respective absolute numerical values for the geo.

== Examples in the wild ==
This section is '''informative'''.

The following sites have published geos, outside their normal context of hCards, and thus are a great place to start for anyone looking for examples "in the wild" to try parsing, indexing, organizing etc., in addition to those in many [[hcard-examples-in-wild|hCard examples in the wild]]. If you find geos outside of hCards anywhere else, feel free to add them to the '''top''' of this list. Once the list grows too big, we'll make a separate wiki page.

== Abstract ==
[[Rel-Tag]] is one of several [[MicroFormats]]. By adding <code>rel="tag"</code> to a hyperlink, a page indicates that the destination of that hyperlink is an author-designated "tag" (or keyword/subject) for the current page. Note that a tag may just refer to a major portion of the current page (i.e. a blog post). e.g. by placing this link on a page,

<pre><nowiki><a href="http://technorati.com/tag/tech" rel="tag">tech</a></nowiki></pre>

the author indicates that the page (or some portion of the page) has the tag "tech".

The linked page SHOULD exist, and it is the linked page, rather than the link text, that defines the tag. The last path component of the URL
is the text of the tag, so

<pre><nowiki><a href="http://technorati.com/tag/tech" rel="tag">fish</a></nowiki></pre>

would indicate the tag "tech" rather than "fish".

== Scope ==
rel="tag" is specifically designed for "tagging" content, typically web pages (or portions thereof, like blog posts).

rel="tag" is NOT designed for "tagging" arbitrary URLs or external content. There is demand for a general decentralized syntax for tagging URLs external to the current page, but this is not meant for that. See [[xfolk|xFolk]] and [[hreview|hReview]] for ways to tag arbitrary URLs.

If you need to define tags as part of a more specialized format, rel="tag" is the recommended way to do so, and [[xfolk|xFolk]], [[hreview|hReview]], [[hcard |hCard]] and [[hcalendar|hCalendar]] all do this.
== XMDP profile ==
<pre><nowiki>
<dl class="profile">
<dt id="rel">rel</dt>
<dd><p>
<a rel="help" href="http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/links.html#adef-rel">
HTML4 definition of the 'rel' attribute.</a>
Here is an additional value.</p>
<dl>
<dt id="tag">tag</dt>
<dd>Indicates that the referred resource serves as a "tag",
or keyword/subject, for the referring page.</dd>
</dl>
</dd>
</dl>
</nowiki></pre>

== Tag Spaces ==

Tags are embedded in HTTP URIs in a well-defined manner so that the tag embedded in an HTTP URI can be mechanically extracted from that URI. Specifically, the last segment of the path portion of the URI (after the final "/" character) contains the tag value. For example, the URI <pre><nowiki>http://www.example.com/tags/foo</nowiki></pre> contains the tag "foo".

Thus, for the purposes of comparing two HTTP URIs as tags, the last segment of the path portion should be extracted and only that value (that value of the tag) should be compared.

''Need more formal language about comparison and extraction process.''

The destination of a rel="tag" hyperlink is required to be a tag space (a place that collates or defines tags), where the last segment of the path of the URL is the tag, e.g.

<pre><nowiki>http://technorati.com/tag/tech </nowiki></pre>

is a URL for the tag "tech".

Tags may only be placed in the URL path, and only in the last segment of the path. Tags may not be placed in query parameters or fragment identifiers. e.g.

<pre><nowiki>http://technorati.com/tag/tech?tag=fish#emu </nowiki></pre>

is still a URL for the tag "tech", not "fish" or "emu".

Since the only part of a tag space URL of which any structure is required is the last path segment, a tag space URL can be hosted at any domain. Authors may choose to link to a tag at a particular tag space in order to provide a specific meaning. E.g. a tag for technology could link to:

<pre><nowiki> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technology </nowiki></pre>

Trailing slashes in tag URLs are ignored, that is:

<pre><nowiki> http://technorati.com/tag/Technology/ </nowiki></pre>
as a rel-tag URL is treated as:
<pre><nowiki> http://technorati.com/tag/Technology </nowiki></pre>

== Encoding issues ==
Spaces can be encoded either as <code>+</code> or <code>%20</code>. Unicode characters are encoded as specified in [http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3986.txt RFC 3986]. For example:

<pre><nowiki><a href="http://technorati.com/tag/Sant%C3%A9+et+bien-%C3%AAtre" rel="tag">Santé et bien-être</a> </nowiki></pre>

Note that if using Wikipedia as a tagspace, as discussed above, you should use <code>%20</code> as they remap '+' to <code>%2B</code>, causing a page with a plus sign in the title (which usually does not exist) to appear.

== Tags Are Visible Metadata ==
<code>rel="tag"</code> hyperlinks are intended to be visible links on pages and posts. This is in stark contrast to meta keywords (which were invisible and typically never revealed to readers), and thus is at least somewhat more resilient to the problems which plagued meta keywords.

Making tag hyperlinks visible has the additional benefit of making it more obvious to readers if a page is abusing tag links, and thus providing more peer pressure for better behavior. It also makes it more obvious to authors, who may not always be aware what invisible metadata is being generated on their behalf.

As a result the invisible tag link syntax variant: <code><link rel="tag" href="..." /></code> SHOULD NOT be supported by implementations.

==Examples in the Wild==
This section is '''informative'''.

The following sites have implemented rel-tag, and thus are a great place to start for anyone looking for examples "in the wild" to try parsing, indexing, organizing etc. If your site marked up with rel-tag, feel free to add it to the '''top''' of this list. Once the list grows too big, we'll make a separate wiki page.

===Examples with some problems===
Entries may be moved here if there's a problem with the way hCards are used on the page concerned. If the page is yours, and you want to improve it, see the [[hcard-faq|hCard FAQ]], or raise any queries on [[hcard-issues|hCard Issues]] or [[mailing-lists#microformats-discuss|the mailing list]], where people will be happy to help you.

Examples may also be sorted into the grouped sections below, and noted in a subsection with minor (unTOC'd) heading: '''with some problems:''' (e.g. see [[hcard-examples-in-wild#Institutions|Institutions]]). That way it is easier to keep similar examples grouped together, even if they have problems, so that when the problems are fixed they can simple be moved up a little rather than having to be sorted into the proper group.

Please consider distinguishing problems for each as either:
* '''invalid''' - the hCard is invalid and cannot be parsed by a parser for any information due to the problem.
* '''suboptimal''' - the hCard is technically valid, yet either has one or more properties that have no data due to a markup problem (e.g. adr without children), and/or there is data inside the hCard markup which ''could'' be marked up with an hCard (sub)property but isn't.
* '''hidden''' - one or more the hCard's (sub)properties are hidden via CSS or other mechanism and are thus potentially out-of-date or vulnerable to being labeled as spam by search engines.

== Grouped Examples ==
This section organizes examples into several rough categories as follows. If an example fits in more than one cateogry, use the *last* matching category in this list that matches the specific hCard example(s) in the wild that you are trying to categorize.
# '''Individuals''' - one card per person, perhaps sort alphabetically by "family-name". People with their own hCards (typically) on their own site.
# '''Organizations''' - one card per organization, alphabetical by "fn". Organizations with their own hCard(s) (typically) on their own site.
# '''Institutions''' - which list more than one person, with a count estimating the # of hCards, e.g. 40k for Avon. Also indicate complexity of information supplied, eg. just name+number vs. complete details. Alphabetically sorted by "org" with perhaps a few individuals listed in a single sub-bullet, comma delimited, sorted by "family-name".
# '''Group Blogs''' - blogs with multiple authors marked up with hCard
# '''Online Profiles''' - which host profiles for more than one person, with a count estimating the # of hCards, e.g. 10m+ for Flickr.com. Alphabetically sorted by "fn" with perhaps a few individuals listed in a single sub-bullet, comma delimited, sorted by "family-name".
# '''Online Venues''' - which provide listings for businesses or organizations, with a count estimating the # of venues, e.g. ~10k for Upcoming.org. Alphabetically sorted by service/site name, with perhaps a few specific venues listed in a single sub-bullet, comma delimited, sorted by "fn".
# '''Speakers Listings''' - event sites' speakers pages where the speakers are marked up with hCard. Sort by date, sub-grouped by year. Most recent first. Perhaps a few individuals listed in a single sub-bullet each event, comma delimited, sorted by "family-name".

In addition there is a separate "UTF8 Examples" section that can be used to put another link to any hCard examples in the wild which exercise various non-ASCII7 / non-english characters for various property values.

As each section itself become quite large (we might be there already, once we sort through the above "Reviewed Examples"), it will probably be moved to a separate page, leaving its heading here in place, and replacing its contents here with a link to the separate page and perhaps a stats summary.

=== Individuals ===
* [http://dbaron.org/ David Baron]'s home page is marked up with hCard.
* [http://tantek.com/ Tantek Çelik]'s home page includes an inline author hCard at the bottom of the page.

'''with some problems:'''
* The [http://www.ibm.com/contact/employees/ IBM Employee Directory] returns hCards in its query results
** E.g. [http://www.ibm.com/contact/employees/servlets/lookup?country=us&language=en&search_country=all&lastname=Kaply&firstname=Michael search for Michael Kaply],
** but with some problems:
*** '''invalid''': no "fn" (would be addressed by the [[hcard-brainstorming#Implied_FN_from_N|implied fn from n proposal]])
*** '''suboptimal''': adr has no children and thus is not providing any data (may be addressed by the [[hcard-brainstorming#implied_adr_subproperties|implied adr subproperties proposal]])
* ...

=== Group Blogs ===
'''with some problems:'''
* The [http://www.ibm.com/shortcuts/ IBM Shortcuts Podcast] has authors marked up with hCard but has some problems:
** '''hidden''': The root hCard element as well as every property contained therein is made invisible through a style attribute containing "position:absolute; visibility:hidden".

===UTF8 Examples===
These examples all contain one or more characters in UTF8 that are outside the ASCII7 range and make for excellent test cases to make sure you are handling UTF8 properly throughout your hCard parsing and transforming. And especially if you are generating vCards, these test cases will help you make sure you are generating UTF8 vCards in such a way that can be recognized by UTF8 supporting vCard applications. Sorted roughly alphabetically (per Unicode).
* [http://sphinx.net.ru/author/ Dmitry Dzhus] embedded his UTF8 encoded hCard with Russian characters in «Author» page of his website.
* [http://tantek.com/ Tantek's Thoughts] encodes Çelik as inline UTF8.
* [http://technorati.jp/about/contact.html Technorati Japan contact information] encodes Japanese as inline UTF8.
* [http://uk.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%93%D0%B5%D1%82%D1%8C%D0%BC%D0%B0%D0%BD_%D0%92%D0%B0%D0%B4%D0%B8%D0%BC_%D0%9F%D0%B5%D1%82%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%B8%D1%87 Vadym Hetman] (Wikipedia-UK (Ukranian))
==== nickname only ====
These UTF8 examples only have UTF8 for the "nickname" property and are thus are a bit easier for testing than the previous examples.
* Various Wikipedia-EN articles, e.g. the "nickname" in: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noyabrsk Noyabrsk] (Russian), [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thessaloniki Thessaloniki] (Greek), [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kyoto Kyoto] (Japanese) and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beijing Beijing] (Chinese)

ChristianHess: /* New Examples */

=hCard Examples in the wild=

This page is an '''informative''' section of the [[hcard|hCard specification]].

The following sites have published [[hcard|hCards]], and thus are a great place to start for anyone looking for examples "in the wild" to try parsing, indexing, organizing etc.

If people or organizations on your site are marked up with hCard (even just your own contact information), feel free to add it to the top of this list. Please be sure to include at least one URL to a page on your site that includes actual [[hcard|hCard]] markup. Examples added without a URL to a page with hCard markup may be removed.

Want to get started with writing an [[hcard|hCard]]? Use the [http://microformats.org/code/hcard/creator hCard creator] to write up some contact information and publish it, or follow the [[hcard-authoring|hCard authoring tips]] to add hCard markup to your current contact page.

==Buttons==
You can use these buttons on pages with hCards. See [[buttons#hCard]] for any recent additions.

== Grouped Examples ==
This section organizes examples into several rough categories as follows. If an example fits in more than one cateogry, use the *last* matching category in this list that matches the specific hCard example(s) in the wild that you are trying to categorize.
# '''Individuals''' - one card per person, perhaps sort alphabetically by "family-name". People with their own hCards (typically) on their own site.
# '''Organizations''' - one card per organization, alphabetical by "fn". Organizations with their own hCard(s) (typically) on their own site.
# '''Institutions''' - which list more than one person, with a count estimating the # of hCards, e.g. 40k for Avon. Also indicate complexity of information supplied, eg. just name+number vs. complete details. Alphabetically sorted by "org" with perhaps a few individuals listed in a single sub-bullet, comma delimited, sorted by "family-name".
# '''Online Profiles''' - which host profiles for more than one person, with a count estimating the # of hCards, e.g. 10m+ for Flickr.com. Alphabetically sorted by "fn" with perhaps a few individuals listed in a single sub-bullet, comma delimited, sorted by "family-name".
# '''Online Venues''' - which provide listings for businesses or organizations, with a count estimating the # of venues, e.g. ~10k for Upcoming.org. Alphabetically sorted by service/site name, with perhaps a few specific venues listed in a single sub-bullet, comma delimited, sorted by "fn".
# '''Speakers Listings''' - event sites' speakers pages where the speakers are marked up with hCard. Sort by date, sub-grouped by year. Most recent first. Perhaps a few individuals listed in a single sub-bullet each event, comma delimited, sorted by "family-name".

In addition there is a separate "UTF8 Examples" section that can be used to put another link to any hCard examples in the wild which exercise various non-ASCII7 / non-english characters for various property values.

As each section itself become quite large (we might be there already, once we sort through the above "Reviewed Examples"), it will probably be moved to a separate page, leaving its heading here in place, and replacing its contents here with a link to the separate page and perhaps a stats summary.

=== Individuals ===

* [http://blogs.msdn.com/cwilso/ Chris Wilson] has an hCard for himself on [http://blogs.msdn.com/cwilso/about.aspx his about page].

===UTF8 Examples===
These examples all contain one or more characters in UTF8 that are outside the ASCII7 range and make for excellent test cases to make sure you are handling UTF8 properly throughout your hCard parsing and transforming. And especially if you are generating vCards, these test cases will help you make sure you are generating UTF8 vCards in such a way that can be recognized by UTF8 supporting vCard applications.

ChristianHess: /* New Examples */

=hCard Examples in the wild=

This page is an '''informative''' section of the [[hcard|hCard specification]].

The following sites have published [[hcard|hCards]], and thus are a great place to start for anyone looking for examples "in the wild" to try parsing, indexing, organizing etc.

If people or organizations on your site are marked up with hCard (even just your own contact information), feel free to add it to the top of this list. Please be sure to include at least one URL to a page on your site that includes actual [[hcard|hCard]] markup. Examples added without a URL to a page with hCard markup may be removed.

Want to get started with writing an [[hcard|hCard]]? Use the [http://microformats.org/code/hcard/creator hCard creator] to write up some contact information and publish it, or follow the [[hcard-authoring|hCard authoring tips]] to add hCard markup to your current contact page.

==Buttons==
You can use these buttons on pages with hCards. See [[buttons#hCard]] for any recent additions.

* [http://suda.co.uk/ Brian Suda] has managed to embed a photo in [http://suda.co.uk/contact/ his hCard] through the [http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2397.txt data URI scheme] by converting the image to BASE64 code. View the Source to see how this is accomplished. [http://suda.co.uk/projects/X2V/get-vcard.php?uri=http%3A//suda.co.uk/contact/ The X2V link] will extract the image and encode it for a vCard which will be displayed in some address book applications.
** Inspired by this I thought to try the same for SVG at [http://barefoot-ceramics.com/find Barefoot] ...
** <img class="photo" style="display:none;" src="data:image/svg+xml;text,<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' standalone='no'?><svg xmlns:svg='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' version='1.0' width='50' height='80' id='svg3957'><defs id='defs3959' /><path d='M 28.91433,...32.192802 z' style='fill:#cc4d00;fill-opacity:1;fill-rule:evenodd;stroke:none;stroke-width:0.625;stroke-linecap:butt;stroke-linejoin:miter;stroke-miterlimit:4;stroke-opacity:1' id='path9551' /></svg>" alt="Barefoot">
** Does it work?? Well it parses OK. Some automated tools replace the < with %3C (etc., e.g. Brian Suda's vCard form). Unfortunately Kontact (KDE contacts tool) doesn't handle SVG as a vCard photo or logo format - I don't know if this is a standard. It seems it could work and maybe even does somewhere. Maybe the text field needs to be Base64 encoded? ... see [http://slashdot.org/~pbhj/journal/142382 pbhj's slashdot journal] for a bit more on this.

== Grouped Examples ==
This section organizes examples into several rough categories as follows. If an example fits in more than one cateogry, use the *last* matching category in this list that matches the specific hCard example(s) in the wild that you are trying to categorize.
# '''Individuals''' - one card per person, perhaps sort alphabetically by "family-name". People with their own hCards (typically) on their own site.
# '''Organizations''' - one card per organization, alphabetical by "fn". Organizations with their own hCard(s) (typically) on their own site.
# '''Institutions''' - which list more than one person, with a count estimating the # of hCards, e.g. 40k for Avon. Also indicate complexity of information supplied, eg. just name+number vs. complete details. Alphabetically sorted by "org" with perhaps a few individuals listed in a single sub-bullet, comma delimited, sorted by "family-name".
# '''Online Profiles''' - which host profiles for more than one person, with a count estimating the # of hCards, e.g. 10m+ for Flickr.com. Alphabetically sorted by "fn" with perhaps a few individuals listed in a single sub-bullet, comma delimited, sorted by "family-name".
# '''Online Venues''' - which provide listings for businesses or organizations, with a count estimating the # of venues, e.g. ~10k for Upcoming.org. Alphabetically sorted by service/site name, with perhaps a few specific venues listed in a single sub-bullet, comma delimited, sorted by "fn".
# '''Speakers Listings''' - event sites' speakers pages where the speakers are marked up with hCard. Sort by date, sub-grouped by year. Most recent first. Perhaps a few individuals listed in a single sub-bullet each event, comma delimited, sorted by "family-name".

In addition there is a separate "UTF8 Examples" section that can be used to put another link to any hCard examples in the wild which exercise various non-ASCII7 / non-english characters for various property values.

As each section itself become quite large (we might be there already, once we sort through the above "Reviewed Examples"), it will probably be moved to a separate page, leaving its heading here in place, and replacing its contents here with a link to the separate page and perhaps a stats summary.

===UTF8 Examples===
These examples all contain one or more characters in UTF8 that are outside the ASCII7 range and make for excellent test cases to make sure you are handling UTF8 properly throughout your hCard parsing and transforming. And especially if you are generating vCards, these test cases will help you make sure you are generating UTF8 vCards in such a way that can be recognized by UTF8 supporting vCard applications.
* [http://tantek.com/ Tantek's Thoughts] encodes Çelik as inline UTF8.
