Your change to HTML5

May I ask the meaning of this change? You provided no edit summary, and your change is clearly incorrect if you look at the source given. —Simetrical (talk • contribs) 15:33, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

The source is a wiki itself, and has been changed from what it said when I check it for that edit. Resistor (talk) 20:05, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

No, it didn't. If you look at the version from that time, it says the same thing. In fact, it's said the same thing since the first wiki version of the page. I'm curious because several people have made changes to those exact dates, usually without explanation, and I'm really puzzled why that is. —Simetrical (talk • contribs) 20:10, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

Looks like I misread the source, then. Feel free to change it back. As to multiple people twiddling it, I suspect that the distinction between W3C Recommendation and W3C Candidate Recommendation gets them confused. I suspect that's what happened to me. —Resistor (talk) 20:19, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
