This page is for documenting brainstorming related to the metaformats.

Which HTML tags

See https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#metadata-content for tags to consider.

meta

The meta, obviously, for Open Graph Protocol and Twitter Cards at least. Are there any others?

  • Only in the head?
  • Or should we specify how to parse meta tags in the body as well?
    • Do any existing consuming code (that supports meta in the head) do anything with meta tags in the body?

Which attributes on meta

name

The HTML specification defines the meta name attribute: https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#attr-meta-name

content

The HTML specification defines the meta content attribute: https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#attr-meta-content

property

Only for backcompat with Open Graph Protocol.
