Specification: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/complete/introduction.html Multipage: http://www.whatwg.org/C#history-1 Complete: http://www.whatwg.org/c#history-1 Comment: in paragraph 2, 3rd sentence HTML4 quicky followed later that same year. Drop the misspelled word quicky because it is redundant to the phrase 'later that same year'.

I'll fix the typo, but the intent of the redundant phraseology here was to emphasise the very short time between releases of the spec at the time. I'm open to better ways to do that, but I think removing the "quickly" makes this less strongly worded than I'd like.
