I like that it is vague enough to be used on a case-by-case basis, but I don't understand why it has been reworded for this second registration. The original description was: "Refers to a parent document in a hierarchy of documents." This wording was chosen to fit with the other wordings: http://www.iana.org/assignments/link-relations/link-relations.xhtml Was the description reworded to match a rewording of the other related registrations? > Note, in <http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/links.html#link-type-up>: > > "The up keyword may be repeated within a rel attribute to indicate the hierarchical distance from the current document to the referenced document. If it occurs only once, then the link is leading to the current document's parent; each additional occurrence of the keyword represents one further level." > > Related WG issue: <http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/issues/119>. I was aware of this definition when I made the registration request, which probably accounts for the choice of "a" instead of "the" — however, I am agnostic on the issue.
