I think it's worth noting, early on in the article (perhaps in the introduction), that HTML5 is also widely used as a broader term, which encompasses more widely standardized JavaScript standards and CSS3. For example, any presentation you've ever seen regarding HTML5 (I participated in one of the HTML5 W3C conferences in Redmond, WA), talks about much more than just HTML itself. On the contrary, HTML is the hub language for several other languages and functionalities (WebGL, CSS3, Canvas, JavaScript functionalities (WebSockets, IndexedDB, WebWorkers, etc.)), and -- IMHO -- is more of a paradigm that is hitting the web world; NOT just a language. HTML5 is the golden opportunity for all browser vendors to strive for standards compliance. We've seen a much wider effort on behalf of all browser vendors, internet companies, educational institutions, and web developers alike (oh, and the W3C), to "get it right" this time around. So, HTML5 is a much bigger "thing." It's the evangelical voice vying for semantics, accessibility (ARIA), and pushing web languages into new horizons (PhoneGap, mobile devices), and even the increasing potential of integrating WebGL, CSS3 transforms, SVG, and interactive 3D gaming. ''phew!'' Do it proud. [[User:Danielbullis|Danielbullis]] ([[User talk:Danielbullis|talk]]) 05:56, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
:You are right, however HTML5 ''is'' a real thing i.e. there is a definition, and there is what people think it means. Like you said HTML5 has become this buzzword to mean anything that is new in the world of the web. The issue is that people (your average joe) still has issues with the real definition, and if we start talking about the idea that the definition and the buzzword are different things, I think it is going to make the issue worse. I am not saying that it should not be talked about but it needs to be made clear that what people call HTML5 and what HTML5 ''is'' are different things. --[[User:Inputdata|Inputdata]] ([[User talk:Inputdata|talk]]) 11:48, 13 May 2013 (UTC)
