got an odd request to unblock someone from the wiki via Skype chat. username is live:somehextstring so I'm not trusting it
#
[tantek]
if that was you, please speak up here

hListing draft
#
[tantek]
which I reverted because I found no hListing on the page they added, and they changed someone else's unrelated page too
#
[tantek]
so I see no reason to unblock

Tantek re that blog post for Microformats - do we know who can help with getting it live? Ie Aaron, as it'd be a shame to lose the momentum after the announcement from Google

↩️ Although, joking aside, I find Structured Data β€” and its near-relative, microformats β€” fairly benign. Yes, it helps Google β€” but it also helps anyone else who wants to use it. Whereas FB/Twitter-mandated metadata is much more tailored to the specific needs of a single vendor.

↩️ Stuff that augments information in or about a page or site (Structured Data, microformats) is positive and enriches everyone. Stuff that conforms to the very specific requirements of 1 vendor (apple-touch-icon, anybody?) is less so, even if it’s theoretically usable by others.
