http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=10862 --- Comment #3 from Shelley Powers <shelleyp@burningbird.net> 2010-09-30 16:06:35 UTC --- Oops, as was pointed out to me, strike was also deprecated. Frankly, making both s and strike obsolete was a legitimate move with HTML5. The purpose of these elements wasn't to mark semantics, it was to provide a line through the text. We can do this with CSS now. We should do this with CSS now. If we undeprecate s (or strike for that matter), then we have inconsistent implementations on the web: some people have used s or strike purely for line-through presentation, some now, to match some new meaning. If the intent was to create something more meaningful, then a new element would have been a more logical move, and one that wouldn't create a level of confusion. -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
