Article Interop WG: How to represent titles?

Should title be inserted into Article.content as an <h1> tag, or should it go to Article.name?

@silverpill that's interesting because I'd say no, but html pages frequently duplicate title and h1.

@tedu @article_interop There might be popular services where name is ignored completely but <h1> in content gracefully degrades. If that's the case, <h1> (or <h1> plus name) would be preferable.

AFAIK Mastodon doesn't have this problem and will display Article.name. I don't know about the others.

Found the answer here: https://funfedi.dev/support_tables/generated/object_types/

Sharkey seems to be ignoring the name, I guess this means Misskey does that as well.

That makes sense to me. The is metadata, and often includes context that isn't necessary in the article body.
