What did you do? ================ 1. visit https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/dialog 2. view the table in "Specifications" section What happened? ============== the Specifications table says that the <dialog> element was defined in HTML 5.1 (Recommendation). This is incorrect---see https://www.w3.org/TR/html51/ : there is no <dialog> element in that specification. What should have happened? ========================== The <dialog> element actually first appears (apart from the WHATWG Standard) in HTML 5.2 (Working Draft as of 2017-01-04). See https://www.w3.org/TR/html52/interactive-elements.html#the-dialog-element. The Specifications table should be updated to reflect this. Is there anything else we should know? ======================================

:teoli, the problem here is that we have in the SpecName table a spec whose ID is "HTML5.1" but it links to the latest draft, which is actually listed by W3C as HTML 5.2. <dialog> indeed doesn't exist in HTML 5.1 if you go directly to that spec. So. How do we handle this case properly?

I think we should have an entry for 5.1 linking to the recommandation, and a new one for 5.2 linking to the draft.

The spec table on that page now links to the Living Standard and to the 5.2 spec.
