Tot ra: /* Draft */

==Authors==
[http://kurapov.name/eng/tech/explicit_content_format/ Artjom Kurapov]

== Problem ==
Explicit content is a media that affects human psyche and disturbs it. Formatting violent, pornographic and other content should allow control with browser plugins, search crawlers, rss feed readers and other automated tools

==Existing standards==
Current formats of marking content (SafeSurf, RTA, ICRA, RSAC, PICS and now W3C POWDER) either mark entire page as pornographic using meta tag or headers, or are too complex for webmasters to handle.

Ratings like ESRB, MPAA, PEGI are product specific and centralized, which though does provide confidence, cannot scale with internet media. They are also targeted for specific country and its legislation.

== Draft ==
Author has to mark any html element with attribute, based on his subjective rating of content's danger. HTML5 gives attribute data- in free use, so namespace xrate (sort for explicit rating) with integer values (0-100) which represent danger to the viewer (the higher - the bigger), which will also ease filtering. Suggested format is not centralized and thus heavily depends on maintainer and owner of the content. A collective voting system with average or median result as rating value is advised to be used.

=== Rating tags ===
data-xrate-violence Violence and its results - weapons, wounds, dead bodies, blood

data-xrate-sex Romantic, erotic, pornographic

data-xrate-nude Level of nudity

data-xrate-disgust Might cause disgust (shit, larvae, decomposition)

data-xrate-asocial Smoking, alcohol, drugs, gambling, prostitution

data-xrate-lang Obscene language

data-xrate-spoiler Story is retold

data-xrate-blink Blinking animation that might cause eplilepsy

data-xrate-camera If application (flash/applet?) gains access to videocamera

data-xrate-malware If resource can cause infection (viruses, trojans etc.) on viewer's machine

===Examples===
<pre><nowiki>
<a href="http://meatvideo.com/" data-xrate-violence="100">omg</a>

<img src="http://www.tema.ru/jjj/tits/renuar.jpg" data-xrate-nude="60" data-xrate-sex="0" />

<entry-title>Exploratory Discussions</entry-title>

Per the microformats [[process]]: research and analysis of real-world [[examples]], existing formats, and brainstorming to motivate the microformat. Please check [[rejected-formats]] before making additions.

Sort each section alphabetically. Group similar efforts.

==active==
'''New: [[microformats 2]]''' has sufficiently stabilized to start using on public web pages and developing parsers and applications. Current exploratory microformats should switch to the microformats-2 syntax for further development.

== completed ==

* review [[review-examples|review examples]], and [[review-formats|review formats]] yielded the [[hreview|hReview]] draft

== solo pursuits ==
The following are primarily pursued by a single individual and thus have not generated widespread interest in the community yet. In general, solo pursuits are discouraged.

The goal of a format is to help human communication, the exchange of information between two people. Thus if only one community member is really interested in pursuing it (enough to work on it in the community), it's not important as a format. While a list of contributors or supporters helps demonstrate some broader interest, it is still insufficient if a format is only really being worked on in the community by a single individual.

* geo extensions ([[User:AndyMabbett|Andy Mabbett]])
** [[geo-elevation-examples]], [[geo-elevation-formats]] - extend geo for representing altitude
** [[geo-waypoint-examples]], [[geo-waypoint-formats]] - extend geo for representing routes and boundaries, using waypoints
** [[geo-extension-examples]], [[geo-extension-formats]], [[geo-extension-brainstorming]], [[geo-extension-strawman]] - extend geo for moons, other planets, etc.
* [[off|OFF]]
* [[hJoke]] a microformat used to delineate jokes/humor
* [[itinerary]] ([[User:Lfbn|Luís Nóbrega]]), [[itinerary-examples]].

== failed to follow process ==
All too often it seems people propose a new microformat without following the [[process]] (most often not even reading apparently), nor creating the proper research pages first (and doing the research), nor sometimes even reading the [[introduction]] and [[how-to-play]] pages. Such proposals are relegated to this section to make it clear that they are worse than mere solo pursuits, they are (most of the time) solo pursuits by people who haven't even read the [[process]] page!

In short, if you, the proposer, don't even bother to spend the time reading and attempting to use existing microformats (as the [[Main_Page]], [[introduction]], AND [[process]] page ask you to do so), how can you expect anyone else to bother to read and consider your proposal?

* [[directory-proposal]]
* [[realestate-propertydetail]], [[realestate-propertydetail-examples]], [[realestate-propertydetail-formats]], [[realestate-propertydetail brainstorming]]
* show [[show-examples]], [[show-formats]], [[show-brainstorming|show brainstorming]]
* showroll [[showroll-examples]], [[showroll-formats]], [[showroll-brainstorming]]
* syllabus [[syllabus-examples]], [[syllabus-formats]], [[syllabus-brainstorming]]
* [[web-page]]

=== did not read main page ===
Even worse, proposals by people who apparently didn't even bother to read the rest of the [[Main_Page]]!
These are proposals that failed to follow the process and were added by the author to the [[Main_Page]] where it explicitly says to follow the process (often right next to where they added the link to their brainstorm proposal).

== completed ==

* review [[review-examples|review examples]], and [[review-formats|review formats]] yielded the [[hreview|hReview]] draft

== solo pursuits ==
The following are primarily pursued by a single individual and thus have not generated widespread interest in the community yet. In general, solo pursuits are discouraged.

The goal of a format is to help human communication, the exchange of information between two people. Thus if only one community member is really interested in pursuing it (enough to work on it in the community), it's not important as a format. While a list of contributors or supporters helps demonstrate some broader interest, it is still insufficient if a format is only really being worked on in the community by a single individual.

* geo extensions ([[User:AndyMabbett|Andy Mabbett]])
** [[geo-elevation-examples]], [[geo-elevation-formats]] - extend geo for representing altitude
** [[geo-waypoint-examples]], [[geo-waypoint-formats]] - extend geo for representing routes and boundaries, using waypoints

* [[itinerary]] ([[User:Lfbn|Luís Nóbrega]]), [[itinerary-examples]].

== failed to follow process ==
All too often it seems people propose a new microformat without following the [[process]] (most often not even reading apparently), nor creating the proper research pages first (and doing the research), nor sometimes even reading the [[introduction]] and [[how-to-play]] pages. Such proposals are relegated to this section to make it clear that they are worse than mere solo pursuits, they are (most of the time) solo pursuits by people who haven't even read the [[process]] page!

In short, if you, the proposer, don't even bother to spend the time reading and attempting to use existing microformats (as the [[Main_Page]], [[introduction]], AND [[process]] page ask you to do so), how can you expect anyone else to bother to read and consider your proposal?

* [[directory-proposal]]
* [[realestate-propertydetail]], [[realestate-propertydetail-examples]], [[realestate-propertydetail-formats]], [[realestate-propertydetail brainstorming]]
* show [[show-examples]], [[show-formats]], [[show-brainstorming|show brainstorming]]

* syllabus [[syllabus-examples]], [[syllabus-formats]], [[syllabus-brainstorming]]
* [[web-page]]

=== did not read main page ===
Even worse, proposals by people who apparently didn't even bother to read the rest of the [[Main_Page]]!
These are proposals that failed to follow the process and were added by the author to the [[Main_Page]] where it explicitly says to follow the process (often right next to where they added the link to their brainstorm proposal).
