Change "Here" links to Accessible format #707

Closed jsgro closed 3 years ago

jsgro commented 3 years ago

"Here" links are not recommended in order to make text or buttons more "Accessible" (see e.g. accessibility-posters-set.pdf shown in Instructor training lesson.)

I noted the following 3 links that could benefit changing to a better format with minimal changes with the suggestions shown below.

On the Home page tag: https://datacarpentry.org/R-ecology-lesson/index.html#Update_R_and_RStudio the following phrase

On page tag: https://datacarpentry.org/R-ecology-lesson/00-before-we-start.html#Asking_for_help the phrase:

On page tag: https://datacarpentry.org/R-ecology-lesson/instructor-notes.html#R_Version the phrase

As a side note, while these changes would benefit "accessibility" they are also typically suggested in the case of search engine optimization (SEO.)

Thank you for this suggestion! This is indeed and important issue! I've changed the text (took the liberty to deviate from your suggestions a bit.)
