# Inline notes, etc

We (the Chinese Layout Task Force) don't understand what this column is about. It links to [Initial letter styling](https://w3c.github.io/typography/#initial_letter), but we don't understand why "inline notes" is related to "Initial letter styling".

We also don't know what "etc" means in this case. Therefore, we mark it as "unknown" for now.

(If "inline notes" means [Inline Cutting Note (Warichu)](https://www.w3.org/TR/jlreq/#inline_cutting_note), then it should be "something prevents interoperable or effective use in webpages (0)", i.e., red.)

We're not quite familiar with specifications like [CSS Fragmentation](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-break/), [CSS Generated Content for Paged Media](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-gcpm/), or [CSS Paged Media](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-page/), so we need help from the CSS Working Group and the publishing WG/IG/BG/CGs.

We mark it as "unknown" for now.

# Other pagination

Ditto.
