Have you seen how much you can save by using solar panels at your home? You can cut your electricity bill down up to three times less than it currently is. And, the great news is, that when you live in the Irvine or Anaheim areas, you’ve got plenty of sunshine to take advantage of. In fact, Irvine is recognized as one of the leading California cities for home solar panel use. Many homebuilders and home remodelers are installing solar panels to take advantage of not being as dependent on electricity and to look forward to year after year of low electricity bills.
{{DISPLAYTITLE:Welcome to the microformats wiki!}}


To know more about both residential and commercial solar panels [http://www.americansolarsolution.com/ click here]
'''<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.


A solar panel is made up of photovoltaic cells which take in energy from the sun. Putting panels side by side means you are able to harness an extraordinary amount of natural power. Trained solar panel experts can come out to your home and take measurements to tell you exactly how many solar panels you would need to power your home. The truth is these solar panels can work so well they overproduce power and you can make back money by selling off the excess to your utility company. Imagine your residential solar system in Anaheim not only powering your home but making money for you, as well.
* See '''[[microformats2]]''' for a technical overview and summary of how to use microformats on public web pages and for APIs.


Installing home solar panels in Irvine or can be fairly pricey. That is why it’s important for you to really take the time to look into the solar panel companies in your area. Don’t be afraid to ask about their training and experience, their pricing, and if they have a contact list of past customers who you can talk to for reference. Most companies are happy to provide this information as a show of sincerity in their business practices and commitment to providing you with the best possible outcome. If a company refuses or cannot provide this type of information, it’s best to go elsewhere.

There are also companies who will allow you to actually lease solar panels for your home. The company, in effect, pays the cost of the solar panel system for you, has it installed for you, and then continues to maintain the solar panels on your behalf. Your responsibility comes in paying a low monthly fee for an agreed upon amount of time. If you want to modernize your home and save money from doing so in the long run, investing in the amazing ability of solar panels is a wise way to begin. Why wait? It’s the perfect time, all the time, in Southern California to find the right solar panel company for you.

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.

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:

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.
