capjamesg[d] I added rel=me to the MDN link types repository: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Link_types/me
# capjamesg[d] [tantek] Can you advise on what should be put in the Specifications / browser compatability section?
# capjamesg[d] I assume rel=me is compatible in all browsers? Should we cite the microformats wiki for the specification reference?

[tantek]2 capjamesg[d], you can cite gmpg.org/xfn/11#me for the original rel=me specification for now
# [tantek]2 capjamesg[d], however, the microformats wiki page for it needs some serious updating: https://microformats.org/wiki/rel-me (lots of stuff there needs to be moved to past / previously section or page)
# [tantek]2 "compatible in all browsers" doesn't really mean much because all rel values technically are because that's just part of HTML5?
# [tantek]2 the more important question is whether any browsers actually *do* anything special with rel=me, which AFAIK the answer is no (in contrast to say, rel=stylesheet obviously makes things happen in a browser)
# [tantek]2 capjamesg[d], this gets back to the general methodology approach of, FIRST make sure the microformats wiki pages on a subject are updated / valid, BEFORE creating a similar page / summary on MDN.
# [tantek]2 to be clear, I'm happy to work with you on updating https://microformats.org/wiki/rel-me which likely requires rescoping / rewriting it (as a more "spec-like" page), and moving at least some of the "how to" or examples etc. to https://indieweb.org/rel-me

# capjamesg[d] [tantek] I had already been working on this before we had that discussion 🙂
# capjamesg[d] I can assist with updating the rel=me page to be more "spec like".
# capjamesg[d] And then revise MDN as appropriate.
