Talk:markup

Sense #1:

> The notation that is used to indicate how text should be displayed.

seems insufficient. Modern markup languages (starting in the 1980s) are as much or more about the semantics of the text being marked up than about how it is displayed. This sounds more like a definition of the subset of markup called "procedural markup".

 * ✅ Fixed. I left the text formatting stuff in because it often is the case (e.g. in RTF or early, pre-CSS HTML). Equinox ◑ 20:28, 2 May 2019 (UTC)
