Unless the names are marked up individually as list-items, within a list, they are pretty much inaccessible to a screen reader users. The current markup is in an unbroken (no separating punctuation even) block within a paragraph). The whole paragraph is announced together without a sense of where one name ends and the next begins, and with no means to pause or review the names. Using list-items would enable a screen reader user to hear each name as a discrete entity, to pause the reading and to hear a name again, and even to hear the individual letters.
FreeCEN is using lists AFAIK.
A table would not be appropriate.
Is lists AFAIK different to the current presentation?
@nurifreembd I do not understand your question — unless it is AFAIK (= as far as I know) that I need to explain? Apologies for using the abbreviation and for not putting a comma after lists. I.e. "FreeCEN is using lists and list-items, as far as I know."
I believe that REG is still dumping the names in a paragraph, much the same as BMD. Which is why I said: The current markup is in an unbroken block (with no punctuation) within paragraph tags.
Current presentation of names are to busy and not vey user friendly. we could consider tabular form.
