What specific section or headline is this issue about?

Reference

What information was incorrect, unhelpful, or incomplete?

Comments of the form <!----> are only mentioned in the HTML Basics section, but I believe the reference should be a complete listing of all elements of the language. If you are experienced with programming but new to HTML you might just want to quickly look up a certain syntax. Searching for "comment" in the search bar returns a result on CSS comments but not HTML comments.

What did you expect to see?

the comment syntax listed in the reference

Do you have any supporting links, references, or citations?

No response

Do you have anything more you want to share?

Also, to whoever will create the page, note that comments are technically not HTML elements.
