Hi all, The term *format* is being used in the text in different contexts and can confuse the reader. The title of Best Practice 2 is: "Provide metadata in different *formats*" Then we have a kind of subtitle: "Metadata should be provided for both humans and machines" So the formats are (I guess): human-readable; machine-readable. In the text of BP2 we have: "Metadata for machines is best provided either as an alternative representation of the Web page in a *format *such as Turtle or JSON-LD (for RDF)...." We have also file formats: XML, CSV, JSON... Maybe we have to qualify the term format when we use it. So, Turtle is a serialization format, CSV is a file format, etc. ==== I propose a more straight title to BP2: "Provide metadata for both humans and machines" What do you think about this? Best, Laufer -- . . . .. . . . . . .. . .. .
