Wikivoyage:Microformats Voyage Tips and guide

You can check the original Wikivoyage article Here

    Microformats are a loose group of standards for adding simple markup to human-readable data items such as events, contact details or locations. The information in web pages that follow the standards can be extracted by software and indexed, searched for, saved, cross-referenced or combined. More technically, they are items of semantic markup, using just standard (X)HTML with a set of common class-names. They are open and available, freely, for anyone to use.

    Since microformats depend on particular (X)HTML elements and attributes, it's not - yet - possible to implement them in basic Wiki syntax. However, some of our MediaWiki extensions do or will support microformats for output.

    hCard

    [edit]

    hCard is used to mark up contact details for people, organizations or venues (i.e hotels, shops, pubs, museums, etc.). and can be extracted as a vCard. The new Project:Listings implement hCard. For examples, see Birmingham (England), Cincinnati or Singapore/Sentosa.

    rel-license

    [edit]

    The rel-licence microformat is already used on every page on Wikivoyage.

    Future

    [edit]

    If you have suggestions for other ways to implement microformats on Wikivoyage, please discuss on the Talk page.
