    <p>OK so here is what I've gathered from authorative sources.</p> <p><a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/section" rel="nofollow"><strong>MDN</strong></a>:</p> <p>The HTML Section Element () represents a generic section of a document, i.e., a thematic grouping of content, typically with a heading.</p> <p>Usage notes :</p> <p>If it makes sense to separately syndicate the content of a element, use an element instead. Do not use the element as a generic container; this is what is for, especially when the sectioning is only for styling purposes. A rule of thumb is that a section should logically appear in the outline of a document.</p> <p><a href="http://learn.shayhowe.com/html-css/elements-semantics#html5-elements" rel="nofollow"><strong>Shay Howe's guide</strong></a>:</p> <p>A section is more likely to get confused with a div than an article. As a block level element, section is defined to represent a generic document or application section.</p> <p>The best way to determine when to use a section versus a div is to look at the actual content at hand. If the block of content could exist as a record within a database and isn’t explicitly needed as a CSS styling hook then the section element is most applicable. Sections should be used to break a page up, providing a natural hierarchy, and most commonly will have a proper heading.</p> <p><a href="http://dev.opera.com/articles/view/new-structural-elements-in-html5/#article-section" rel="nofollow"><strong>dev.opera.com</strong></a></p> <p>Basically, the article element is for standalone pieces of content that would make sense outside the context of the current page, and could be syndicated nicely. Such pieces of content include blog posts, a video and it's transcript, a news story, or a single part of a serial story.</p> <p>The section element, on the other hand is for breaking the content of a page into different functions or subjects areas, or breaking an article or story up into different sections.</p>
