Some elements that are deprecated in HTML 4.x / XHTML 1.x are acceptable in HTML 5 , some are obsolete ; you would need to check them on a case-by-case basis (noting that HTML 5 is still a draft and thus a moving target).
deprecated in html5 like
<ul>tag
<ul> has never been deprecated.

The tags <acronym> , <applet> , <basefont> , <big> , <center> , <dir> , <font> , <frame> , <frameset> , <noframes> , <isindex> , <strike> , <tt> aren't used anymore in HTML5 . They aren't deprecated, but you'd better not use them ( source ).
You can also check absent attributes: http://www.w3.org/TR/html5-diff/#absent-attributes .

Yes, you can use the <u> tag in html 5 even though it is deprecated. Using CSS to achieve the same effect is however recommended.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Can we use deprecated html 4 elements in html 5?</title>
</head>
<body>
This is a <u>test</u>.
</body>
</html>
You can use the W3C validator to validate it.

deprecated in html5 like
<ul>tag
<ul> is not deprecated, you can find some lists of deprecated elements and their replacements like this one , just try to google little bit more :-)

deprecated in html5 like
<ul>tag
The <ul> tag will not be deprecated. you can see all the changes here , and the tags that will be dropped here . Nothing will be "deprecated" (see here ), as :
Since HTML5 has separate conformance requirements for authors and user agents there is no longer a need for marking features "deprecated".
so keep on using your <ul> ! (If you actually have an unsorted list... if not, use the element that's most suited for the job)
