Issue #1
- Alex Schneider
- Yeah, I've thought about it, but decided to keep it as is.
The block is neither an actual quote nor a <details>, but rather kind of a sidenote. Semantically, the best tag for it would be <aside>. It sometimes contains several paragraphs of text with headings. It is always visible. It isn't stylized at all except for the background. The text in fact looks like all the other body text.
All the three options (<details>, <blockquote> and <aside>) format the block in a way that doesn't correspond to the original. Even worse, they actually make the block less readable by italicizing, centering or hiding the text. Also, in the IV there is another <details> element with references right after it.
Sadly, there is no block element in IV that alters the background (I wish there was, it would be so useful!), so I had to choose the lesser evil. After all, unstyled and well readable beats weirdly styled and poorly readable any day.
- Declined by admin
- Since the block is in the end of article, it's acceptable to leave it as it is
- Type of issue
- IV page is missing essential content

maybe it's better to put it in <details> or <blockquote>?
