Comment:
I believe that the link type &quot;tag&quot; should follow the same applicability as the
author link type - i.e. nearest article parent / page as whole otherwise. It
would also be consistent with the already used rel-tag microformat.

Status: Rejected
Change Description: no spec change
Rationale: The only implementations I could find of rel-tag consumers all worked at the page level, not the section level.</thetext>

    <thetext>After some research, I have come to the conclusion that the only confusion is one of wording - that I thought that the rel=&quot;tag&quot; attribute could only be applied if the tag in question concerned the entirety of the page.

Thank you for your consideration.</thetext>
