Who "standardizes" HTML meta tags?

Question

HTML

Dear habra community.

Tell me, what organization is involved in the standardization of HTTP META tags? I would like to make a proposal to them on the development of meta tags responsible for classifying the confidentiality of content (so that, for example, search robots do not index confidentional, secret documents). I assume that this is the W3C, but decided to clarify?

Answer 1

1) There is already robots.txt, which is just for search engines.
2) There is Noindex , proposed by Yandex for a more detailed cut of data from indexing.
3) Nofollow
4) Robots meta tag

Answer 2

What about the meaning? After all, you yourself are proposing to write a robot that will purposefully index documents marked confidentional and secret.

Answer 3

Yes. What is valid tags depends on the version of HTML that is supposed to be used.
HTML 4.01 and XHTML - content, http-equiv, name and scheme
HTML 5 - content, http-equiv, name, scheme + charset
