Examples include paragraphs, large quotations, lists, buttons, table cells. Quotations inside a paragraph or links inside sentences are not blocks of text. " 13:17:18 WF: A sentence is easy to define, but what makes it a block? Defining it by white space seems "off" because of screen readers and books 13:19:49 WF: A block of text starts on a new line and ends with the line break. 13:20:28 ... it would include every line of a poem, but I can live with that. 13:20:55 ... you might need text that reflows 13:21:45 ... you either know that there is a line break or you need ?? 13:22:32 JS: So if there is a
in a

, that would be two blocks of text? 13:22:36 WF: Yes 13:25:39 WF: ANother example: A definition list could be on one line on a wide screen could be one block of text and one the narrow screen it would be two blocks of text. 13:26:52 JS: Shouldn't something that is programmatically coded as two blocks, still be two blocks even if it is visually one block? 13:27:03 WF: That makes it unnecessarily complicated 13:29:33 JS: Will the definition work in a vertical language? 13:35:50 JS: What about: "A paragraph is typically a run of phrasing content that forms a block of text with one or more sentences that discuss a particular topic, as in typography, but can also be used for more general thematic grouping. For instance, an address is also a paragraph, as is a part of a form, a byline, or a stanza in a poem". - from HTML5 Semantics, structure and APIs of 13:35:50 HTML documents (Editor’s draft) 13:36:09 WF: This is too HTML specific, but we can work on it. 13:36:38 ... it is a circular definition. 13:39:37 ... I liked the definition we started with, but I also like the HTML examples 13:40:05 JS: I think we should note the HTML5 definition and explain that we aren't using it because it is self-referential. 13:43:30 JS: What about a programmatic line? 13:44:00 WF: I would rather see a "hard line break" from word processing 13:44:31 WF: What about PDF? They can have untagged sentences and paragraphs. 13:48:26 WF: What about columns that reflow? They don't end in a paragraph. 13:54:58 Topic: Next step with AGWG? 13:55:26 FS: I will send a message to Rachael saying the work is ready to present to AGWG 13:55:35 JS: I can move it to Github 15:18:32 Zakim has left #silver-reliability 15:21:20 rrsagent, make minutes 15:21:20 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2022/04/26-silver-reliability-minutes.html jeanne 15:22:13 present+ Francis, Wilco, jeanne 15:22:17 chair: Francis 15:22:33 rrsagent, make minutes 15:22:33 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2022/04/26-silver-reliability-minutes.html jeanne 15:23:56 +1 15:33:24 jeanne has left #silver-reliability 15:35:31 Francis_Storr has joined #silver-reliability
