Whereever we use status, I'm adding a browser-compat so they can be cross-checked. In this process I'm noticing some pages that shouldn't get a status, and one page with an incorrect page-type, even, so I'm fixing them alongside.

Maybe @chrisdavidmills might have thoughts about removing this

There were very strong feelings at the time of the discussion that we needed these notes on API pages, where major vendors opposed the technology.

What were your thoughts on getting rid of them, @Josh-Cena?

This is a guide page, not the main API landing page. The note is also a bit off because the section is on another page and not "below". I don't think a guide should talk about support status, and I've got multiple rounds of agreement on this opinion, so I will be removing all sorts of support indication (including vendor opposition) from "Using" type of guides.

Ah, so remove it from guides, but not API landing pages, interface refs, etc?

In which case, I'm on board. Thanks!

This note isn't about support status.

Let's not remove any standard position note without sign-off from @Rumyra.

Actually I don't care enough about this note; I just found it out of place. I'll restore it for now.

Everything looks good, so a +1 from me. One comment about the standards position note that might be good to verify first.

This doesn't have a spec_url, and it doesn't look deprecated, or at least it isn't marked as such:

Missing spec_url key is not a blocker here, but do you want to get rid of the deprecated status?

I'm not totally familiar with the SVG spec landscape but this attribute is defined in the SMIL spec only and not the SVG animation spec. I'll remove the status for now since it can be synced anyway. The spec link can be added later to BCD.

I reckon we probably ought to keep this, unless you've got a really good reason not to.
