What were you trying to do?
I pasted the user and tag RSS feeds produced at these URLs against the official W3C Feed Validation Service to check the feeds' compliance with the RSS 2.0 and Atom 1.0 specifications.
/users/:nickname/feed.rss
/users/:nickname/feed.atom
/tags/:tag.rss
/tags/:tag.atom
What did you expect to happen?
The user and tag feeds should be as compliant as possible with the official standards.
It may be the case that non-compliant elements and attributes are included in feed output in order to support legacy feed readers or other automated tools. If so, these non-compliant elements should be identified and noted in the source code accordingly.
For example, undefined or repeated link elements such as rel="avatar", rel="emoji", rel="header", rel="mentioned", or rel="ostatus:conversation", and the managingEditor sub-elements in the RSS 2.0 feed.
What actually happened?
The validator service reported many errors. Some of these should be corrected without discussion. Others might need to be reviewed to make sure that legacy non-compliant readers will continue to parse these feeds correctly.
