That caused us to update the suggested markup to include an example class value in the span tag, which is the only reason for using <span>. In HTML5 there was no semantic element added that’s particularly appropriate for marking up an attribution. So to mark up the logo attribution semantically, just wrap it with a <span> or <p> or whatever normal element’s best for your actual context, with a class attribute as needed. You could be wrapping the HTML logo image itself in a <figure>, as long as the purpose is to associate a caption to the image, and to do so, please use <figcaption>. But otherwise, if there’s no caption then there is nothing to gain by using <figure>. Just a normal <img> element on its own is semantically perfect in that case.
