That's not a bad start, but that only deals with semantic headers :-)
I would make sure that guide mentions the following:
- menus: 99 to 1, your menu should be a list of links, styled appropriately, not a bunch of <div> or | or etc, just a simple <ul>
- breadcrumbs: same thing, they should be a <ul> with appropriate styles
- content: content is content, it is <p> there is almost need to wrap these in endless <div> or <span> just to give them cool colors, just style the <p> directly in most cases, sometimes extra markup is needed but generally i see *too* much markup
- definition lists: probably don't use them when you really should (think image galleries) : http://maxdesign.com.au/presentation/definition/
- style external links: http://maxdesign.com.au/presentation/external/
and probably lots of other things that can be mentioned about semantic markup, some more useful articles here: http://maxdesign.com.au/presentation/
as i don't have time to write anything up in detail (my schedule at the moment is far too packed) these useful notes should be made. whomever updates it, i'm more than willing to edit and critique just don't have the time to write it up initially.
