<p>Missing <code>atom:link</code> with <code>rel="self"</code></p>
</div>
<div id='explanation'>
<p>According to the <a href="http://www.rssboard.org/charter">RSS Advisory Board</a>'s <a href="http://www.rssboard.org/rss-profile-1#namespace-elements-atom-link">Best Practices Profile</a>, identifying a feed's URL within the feed makes it more portable, self-contained, and easier to cache. For these reasons, a feed <span class="rfc2119">should</span> contain an <span class="element">atom:link</span> used for this purpose.</p>
</div>
<div id='solution'>
<p>If you haven't already done so, declare the Atom namespace at the top of your feed, thus:</p>
<pre class="code">&lt;rss version="2.0" <b>xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom"</b>&gt;</pre>
<p>Then insert a <code>atom:link</code> to your feed in the <code>channel</code> section.  Below is an example to get you started.  Be sure to replace the value of the <code>href</code> attribute with the URL of your feed.</p>
<pre class="code">&lt;atom:link href="<em><b>http://dallas.example.com/rss.xml</b></em>" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" /&gt;</pre>
</div>
