			== The Problem ==

			While there are dozens of formats used on thousands of web directories, there is no single standardised format for presentation of web directory listings. Having a standardised directory listing format will significantly benefit readers, aggregators, search engines, automations and researchers alike.

			== Thoughts on a Microformat for News ==

			I found substantial base of attributes and fields with [[hListing]], and simplified an initial effort at a data format for directory listing using fields already in [[hListing]], the focus of this format is to add the required fields enabling you to create a meaningful Web Directory format.

			The difference from the [[hListing]] is the purpose of the implementation and the core difference in the item properties and purpose, a Directory listing is an item with no associated price nor an expiry date, the ability to get the summery of the item in a condense format is one of the key parts of the listing.

			The fields selected are a combination of the common fields from many of the Web Directory formats currently in use, and the introduction of new fields, '''TBD'''.


			=== Common Directory Listing Fields ===
			'''TBD'''.

			== Issues ==

			Please add new issues to the bottom of the [[news-brainstorming#Open_Issues\|Open Issues]] section by copy and pasting the [[news-brainstorming#Issues_Template\|Template]]. Please follow-up to resolved/rejected issues with new information rather than resubmitting such issues. Duplicate issue additions will be reverted.

			=== Current Issues ===
			'''TBD'''.
