+     <p>This page about typefaces on British motorways uses a
+     <code><a href="#meta">meta</a></code> element to specify some keywords that users
+     might use to look for the page:</p>
+
+     <pre>&lt;!DOCTYPE HTML&gt;
+&lt;html&gt;
+ &lt;head&gt;
+  &lt;title&gt;Typefaces on UK motorways&lt;/title&gt;
+  &lt;meta name="keywords" content="british,type face,font,fonts,highway,highways"&gt;
+ &lt;/head&gt;
+ &lt;body&gt;
+  ...</pre>
+
+    </div>
+
+    <p class="note">Many search engines do not consider such keywords,
+    because this feature has historically been used unreliably and
+    even misleadingly as a way to spam search engine results in a way
+    that is not helpful for users.</p>
+
+    <div class="impl">
+
+    <p>To obtain the list of keywords that the author has specified as
+    applicable to the page, the user agent must run the following
+    steps:</p>
+
+    <ol><li><p>Let <var title="">keywords</var> be an empty
+     list.</li>
+
+     <li>
+
+      <p>For each <code><a href="#meta">meta</a></code> element with a <code title="attr-meta-name"><a href="#attr-meta-name">name</a></code> attribute and a <code title="attr-meta-content"><a href="#attr-meta-content">content</a></code> attribute and whose
+      <code title="attr-meta-name"><a href="#attr-meta-name">name</a></code> attribute's value is
+      <code title="meta-keywords"><a href="#meta-keywords">keywords</a></code>, run the following
+      substeps:</p>
+
+      <ol><li><p><a href="#split-a-string-on-commas" title="split a string on commas">Split the value
+       of the element's <code title="attr-meta-content">content</code>
+       attribute on commas</a>.</li>
+
+       <li><p>Add the resulting tokens, if any, to <var title="">keywords</var>.</li>
+

+
+    </ol><p>User agents should not use this information when there is
+    insufficient confidence in the reliability of the value.</p>
+
+    <p class="example">For instance, it would be reasonable for a
+    content management system to use the keyword information of pages
+    within the system to populate the index of a site-specific search
+    engine, but a large-scale content aggregator that used this
+    information would likely find that certain users would try to game
+    its ranking mechanism through the use of inappropriate
+    keywords.</p>
