+<h2>Types</h2>
+
+ <!-- TODO: ul/li -->
+
+ <div typeof="rdfs:Class" resource="http://schema.org/Action">
+ <span class="h" property="rdfs:label">Action</span>
+ <span property="rdfs:comment">An action that may be carried out by some 'performer' such as a Person or Organization.</span>

+ <span>Subclass of: <a property="rdfs:subClassOf" href="http://schema.org/Intangible">Intangible</a></span>
+ <span>Notes: User Agents may invoke ActionHandlers in order to perform an action. An
+ActionHandler is typically passed a description of the Action instance as input"</span>
+</div>
+
+<!-- This could be dropped from the core -->
+<div typeof="rdfs:Class" resource="http://schema.org/ActionType">
+ <span class="h" property="rdfs:label">ActionType</span>
+ <span property="rdfs:comment">ActionType represents those subtypes of Action that are intended to be usefully actionable according to the schema.org Action-description machinery. This allows for other subtypes of Action to be declared for other descriptive purposes.</span>
+ <span>Subclass of: <a property="rdfs:subClassOf" href="http://schema.org/Class">Class</a></span>
+<span>Notes: ActionType can be used to indicate specific sub-types of Action which are
+designed to participate in the Action-description machinery described here. While
+not essential, this allows other useful sub-types of Action to be defined for other
+purposes without confusion.</span>
+</div>
+
+
+<h2>Enumerations</h2>
+
+<div>We introduce an 'actionStatus' property, which relates an Action to one of several enumerated ActionStatusValue options.</div>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>
+ <div typeof="schema:ActionStatusValue" resource="http://schema.org/PossibleAction">
+ <span class="h" property="rdfs:label">PossibleAction</span>
+ <span property="rdfs:comment">PossibleAction - The action has not been performed yet.</span>
+ </div>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <div typeof="schema:ActionStatusValue" resource="http://schema.org/PendingAction">
+ <span class="h" property="rdfs:label">PendingAction</span>
+ <span property="rdfs:comment">PendingAction - The action is in the process of being performed.</span>
+ </div>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <div typeof="schema:ActionStatusValue" resource="http://schema.org/CancelledAction">
+ <span class="h" property="rdfs:label">CancelledAction</span>
+ <span property="rdfs:comment">CancelledAction - The action was cancelled.</span>
+ </div>
+ </li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>Other Changes</h2>
+
+<div>
+Note: 'Action' is a sibling type to '<a href="http://schema.org/Event">Event</a>', sharing some of its properties, such as 'performer' and spatial/temporal information. Applicable properties include: ‘performer’, ‘duration’, ‘startDate’, ‘endDate’ … (these would have domainIncludes amended to mention Action). <!-- TODO. -->
