As a general question, simply to satisfy my
curiosity, I would like to
ask if Mediawiki/Wikpedia could be XHTML 1.0 Strict (or even XHTML
1.1) compliant in the next years and what issues must be addressed to
accomplish this.
We currently have no plans for this, no.
Should it one day be required, the HTML sanitizer class would probably
be updated to do some conversion (eg, from <b> to <strong> or <span
class="bold-but-not-strong-because-strong-implies-semantic-meaning-which-we-cannot-infer">).
It also requires that we drop all forwards compatibility, for instance
with HTML 5.
