Define -webkit-text-stroke sub-properties

[cdoublev]

This an editorial change.

The property is a shorthand for ... is a canonical sentence often used in CSS specs, which is followed by the names of its sub-properties, therefore the current text is ambiguous because it links to the SVG 2 spec and suggests that this spec defines its sub-properties.

Thanks @cdoublev

[karlcow]

hmm why the build is failing.

@cdoublev

shorthand property

could you remove the trailing whitespace after property?

[cdoublev]

Fixed but I suspect that curl is now failing to request resources.whatwg.org in the deploy script.

🤯 what?! fun time.

Error running preprocessor, returned code: 2.
LINK ERROR: Multiple possible 'stroke' dfn refs.
Arbitrarily chose https://svgwg.org/specs/strokes/#StrokeProperty
To auto-select one of the following refs, insert one of these lines into a <pre class=link-defaults> block:
spec:svg-strokes; type:dfn; text:stroke
spec:svg2; type:dfn; text:stroke
[=stroke=]
make: *** [Makefile:23: deploy] Error 22
 ✘  Did not generate, due to fatal errors

@miketaylr @annevk do you know what is happening with bikeshed here?

[annevk]

There's two definitions of stoke and you need to pick one. Presumably you would also get this error on main. What that means is that since you last ran CI the set of definitions Reffy picks up on has changed.

You might also want to file an issue against SVG telling them they shouldn't do stuff like this.

[cdoublev]

I do not think link errors are fatal. It even fails only with the metadata headers using https://api.csswg.org/bikeshed/.

[annevk]

We intentionally configured WHATWG CI to make all warnings and errors fatal. (Bikeshed has a force mode, but we consider that bad practice.)

@cdoublev you'll want to do something like so:

diff --git a/compatibility.bs b/compatibility.bs
index 6911c2b..950796f 100644

(or you can select "Allow edits from maintainers." and I can push it).

[cdoublev]

Do you think the error now comes from the link on invalid?

Allow edits by maintainers is already checked, but feel free to reproduce my edit in a separate PR.

Ah cool, I was on an airplane last night when I wrote that, and every other request was failing - could have just been that.

Yep, sigh... w3c/rdf-semantics@af9fc78

Can you add spec:css-syntax-3; type:dfn; text:invalid as well?

[miketaylr]

Thanks! Sorry for the delay in getting this landed.
