You should probably open another question for new HTML elements. (Actually, I might, if you don't… I have a list, you see.)– wizzwizz4Commented Sep 4, 2024 at 14:32

1High chance it will just get closed as a duplicate -_-'– muruCommented Sep 4, 2024 at 14:33

1I'll take that bet.– wizzwizz4Commented Sep 4, 2024 at 14:35

@wizzwizz4 how do you want to go about it? A question per tag/family of tags, or a single overarching question with individual answers for tags?– muruCommented Sep 4, 2024 at 14:37

1I was going to just list all the useful HTML elements in a question, perhaps with motivation.– wizzwizz4Commented Sep 4, 2024 at 14:39

That could work, but the worry I have is that people opposed to some subset of requested tags will oppose the whole request - and I have seen that happen when a single request asks for multiple things. It really makes it hard to garner support.– muruCommented Sep 4, 2024 at 14:42

I suppose I'll procrastinate less on posting it if I can do it piecemeal, too. Thanks for the suggestion.– wizzwizz4Commented Sep 4, 2024 at 14:45

4Yeah, Jeff gut-reaction declined that request because he has a weird personal vendetta against the concept of code folding. It should never have been declined out of hand like that, but it certainly should have had its status-declined tag simply removed as soon as he left the company.Adding support for details/summary formatting within posts would be a huge modernization boon for exceedingly little effort by comparison, so you get my +1.– TylerHCommented Sep 4, 2024 at 15:33

2@muru Posted a separate question.– wizzwizz4Commented Sep 4, 2024 at 16:06

Wow, the Jon Skeet answered the question, and Jeff Atwood was the one who marked it as declined. That really dates this.– S.S. AnneCommented Sep 25, 2024 at 20:48

How to Format

like so
``` -

```python
def function(foo):
print(foo)
``` - put returns between paragraphs
- for linebreak add 2 spaces at end
- _italic_ or **bold**
- indent code by 4 spaces
- backtick escapes
`like _so_` - quote by placing > at start of line
- to make links (use https whenever possible)
<https://example.com>[example](https://example.com)<a href="https://example.com">example</a>
How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. stack-overflow), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
