What is the correct way, according to you, to mark up a ship name? Instead of <i class="ship">HMS Pinafore</i>. I'm assuming <span class="ship">HMS Pinafore</span> is no better, since <span> is semantically null. <em>HMS Pinafore</em> is clearly wrong, since setting ship names in italics has nothing to do with emphasis. Using no markup at all is wrong, since then there is no way to achieve the italic visual presentation. Regards, Maciej
