Open davatron5000 opened 11 years ago

davatron5000 commented 11 years ago

Simple, bite-sized snippets of content to teach A11Y in smaller pieces instead of big chunks. We can check them off (using githubs new todo list feature) as we get them finished.

:chart_with_upwards_trend: == A table or chart here would be useful.

Concepts

Basic introductions to various concepts. What is it? Why does it exist?

Quick, tiny, easy improvements for maximum ROI

More in-depth, yet simple articles on HOW-TO use/create something.

@jimbateson Unclaimed! I'll put your name next to it.

For more information on contributing, here's a little guide, but holler if you have questions. https://www.a11yproject.com/contributing-guidelines/#submitting-content

Hello! My name is Chandra and I am interested in contributing an article on how to respect users' preference on reduced motion in web design (specifically, the prefers-reduced-motion media query). I would be happy to write it if it is not already done.

Thank you!

Hi @burnhc! That's a subject that's near and dear to my heart. We'd love to have that post in our collection.

Great, I'll follow the procedures on the Contributing Guidelines page and open a new issue for that.

Hi,

I was wondering if "What is WAI? The Web Accessibility Initiative" is claimed yet? I would love to write it if its not already claimed.

Thanks

ericwbailey commented 1 year ago

Hi @ilknureren! We'd love that!

Hi I am Peter, I have never contributed to accessibility before. I checked the a11y project site and noticed that there could be violation of Success Criteria 1.4.5 (Images of text). I don't know if this has been written about before. My exact title would be "Testing Success Criteria 1.4.5 (Images of text)"

ericwbailey commented 1 year ago

Hi @peternjugunamwaura, welcome! To clarify: do you think you've found a violation of SC 1.4.5 on The A11Y Project's website, or is this SC something you'd like to write about?

peternjugunamwaura commented 1 year ago

Hi @ericwbailey I think I can now go ahead and report the accessibility issue. Last time I broke some of the community guidelines and you were unhappy about it. But yeah here is the section on the site that violates SC 1.4.5. Screenshot_25 Thanks.

ericwbailey commented 1 year ago

@peternjugunamwaura Each of these images have alternate content descriptions and are not obscured when the browser is zoomed. This is a common and expected technique for providing an accessible experience for this type of content and not a violation of SC 1.4.5.

Additionally, this is not the proper place to report on this form of issue. Based on our interactions here, I'd encourage you to spend a little more time learning about how GitHub and open source works before participating again.

peternjugunamwaura commented 1 year ago

Thanks i will familiarize myself with all the guidelines and then possibly contribute again in the future. The thought was that the content above does not respond to changes in text spacing. But i now understand it. Thanks a lot.

HarcourtHamsa commented 1 year ago

@ericwbailey can I write about "Myth: Accessibility is just turning off CSS?"

jscherer92 commented 1 year ago

Hello!

I was wondering if I could do a write up on common UI behaviors that break color blindness. Things such as using red to highlight incorrectly filled out fields and the like.

HarcourtHamsa commented 1 year ago

Yeah sure !

Hi @davatron5000! :) I would like to work on the HOWTO: Make an accessible

davatron5000 commented 1 year ago

@CBID2 Looks like @jimbateson claimed that one (see thread above). Let's see if they still are planning on that - they may have already I'm newly back on the project.

Hi @davatron5000! :) Ok, I'll do this one:

?? HOWTO: Make accessible CANVAS & SVG ?? (2 posts?)

@CBID2 great! I'll put your name next to it.

Thanks @davatron5000. Just out of curiosity, does Canvas refer to the design app?

davatron5000 commented 1 year ago

@CBID2 No, more about the HTML <canvas> element? Do you have experience making accessible experiences with HTML canvas? I think for the purposes of this site/post it'd be good to have some expertise here and some examples to point to.

No I don't unfortunately @davatron5000. Maybe I can do this one instead:

What is WAI? The Web Accessibility Initiative

CBID2 commented 11 months ago

Hey @davatron5000! :) Can I do the entry on the Web Accessibility Initiative?

davatron5000 commented 11 months ago

@CBID2 Sounds good! I think WAI, it's relation to the W3C and ARIA and WCAG, etc would be super cool to have an overview about.

Ok I'll add that to my article too. Can you place my name near the WAI checkbox @davatron5000?

Hello @davatron5000 I am interested to write on gerontological design and gerontechnology. Thank you
