Designing for Web Accessibility: Tips for Getting Started

12:41:53 q+ to say that is fine although depends on introduction 12:42:36 Shawn: only con to approach is that details like tips for mark up and coding isn't in the main title 12:42:51 but only 2 of the topics provide that additional information. 12:42:52 ack k 12:42:52 kevin, you wanted to say that is fine although depends on introduction 12:43:54 Kevin: happy with Shawn's approach. Perhaps a little too much text for my liking. 12:44:26 Important that key words are front loaded. 12:44:31 +1 12:44:38 Shawn: feedback 12:44:39 -1 12:44:39 +1 12:44:54 s/text for/text in the h1 for/ 12:45:19 q+ to say throw-away on reread 12:45:21 Howard: Think title/header longer. cuts down on scanning & quick reading of it. 12:45:42 ... understand need to brand the page in some way. thought issue addressed better with box at right 12:46:36 I amend my +1 to a +0.5 12:47:09 Shawn: my concern not so much branding but clarity of information. 12:47:39 Tips for getting started with accessibility - if that is just in box at right. My concern is that the H1 12:47:57 does not say anything about "tips" or "getting started" 12:48:28 +1 to Howard 12:48:43 Someone with a screenreader or enlarger won't see that "getting started" cue. Important to see "tips for getting started in the h1" 12:49:58 Howard: title now has "quick Start Tips". true screen mag user miss that. hadn't thought about that. 12:50:44 q+ 12:50:51 ... spomething in banner that's close the the H1 that screen mag 12:51:27 ack j 12:51:37 Shawn: that was my original thought but as Kevin and I discussed I changed to current suggestion. 12:51:41 ack e 12:51:44 ack y 12:51:44 yatil, you wanted to say throw-away on reread 12:52:18 Eric: Having ":" Quick Start Tips is a good solution. H1 should describe the content of the site. 12:52:48 s/ Quick Start Tips/Tips for Getting Started/ 12:52:52 If you decide to reread the page, you can stop at the colon.

Doesn't include the other text, which is a paragraph. 12:57:10 Find the "Tips for Getting Started" as part of the heading clashing a bit with the similar text in the box at the right. 12:57:38 Might be other solutions for screenreader and low vision users. 12:57:49 i/scribe: Howard/ScribeOptions: -implicitContinuations/ 12:57:53 rrsagent, draft minutes 12:57:53 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2015/06/05-eo-minutes.html yatil 12:58:01 Shawn: title and h1 should communicate what's in the page 12:58:16 Feel it's important to have the title in the H1 to communicate that. 12:58:35 Kevin: get that and comfortable exploring that. 12:59:56 Jon: Way I'm looking at the page, "Designing for Web Accessibility" is what the page is about. 13:00:30 I think that "Designing for Web Accessibility" is very concise. 13:01:42 Shawn: boils down to how important "Tips for getting started" in the heading. People often skip intro paragraphs. 13:02:03 Jon: wouldn't the title of the page carry that over? 13:02:17 Shawn: most people would not see the title. 13:03:01 Jon: happy with exploring it 13:03:10 Howard: don't agree, but OK to explore it. 13:03:28 Jon: wouldn't screenreaders catch that? 13:03:46 Shawn: Next issue: banner 13:03:49 banner https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/35532/eowg1june2015/results#xbanner 13:05:09 Shawn: this came from an idea Howard had last week. In the survey looks like 13:05:17 there were preferences for the box. 13:06:05 Shawn: one of challenges for Kevin is to consider if the box title needs to change if we change the H1. 13:06:34 s/one of challenges for Kevin is to consider if the box title needs to change if we change the H1./one of challenges for Kevin is to consider how the box works if we change the H1. 13:06:58 Howard: liked the styling before better 13:07:03 Howard: liked the red color for the font title on the box - more eye catching. 13:07:14 s/ liked the styling before better/ / 13:07:21 q+ to say that I like the more muted style 13:07:35 ack e 13:07:43 Kevin: styling not written in stone yet - was playing around with it. 13:08:06 q+ to say agree and maybe smaller text 13:08:10 ack y 13:08:10 yatil, you wanted to say that I like the more muted style 13:08:11 Eric: likes the more muting styling.

If it's decided it needs to be quieter, ok. 13:09:41 intro paragraph https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/35532/eowg1june2015/results#xintroP 13:11:15 Howard: ok 13:11:52 Kevin: is the current intro tersified for you? 13:12:09 Shawn: No, I think it's redundant. 13:12:33 Needs to be tersified more. 13:12:55 Kevin: not overly tied to what's there. This is just a start. 13:13:44 Shawn: feel like what's there is overly wordy. 13:14:10 Kevin: will have a look at it and also will play around with H1s and subtitles and see how it might all work together. 13:14:24 Shawn: any other comments on intro? 13:14:45 overview page: http://w3c.github.io/wai-quick-start/ 13:15:47 Shawn: Look at Howard's comment on "developing" and "designing" being next to each other. 13:16:16 Shawn: Howard felt words were similarly shaped and shouldn't be next to each other. 13:16:54 Kevin: Order of these items somewhat arbitrary. Designing and Dev'l came first but no reason they have to be next to each other. 13:17:52 Shawn: open up for discussion - what are general feelings for this layout (instead of a list)? 13:17:56 sub-topis: layout 13:18:03 s/sub-topis/sub-topic 13:18:20 Paul: nice that it's a change from the list. Nice to be different. 13:18:21 I like this layout better than the list. List just seems perscriptive to me 13:18:34 like it 13:18:39 i like the current format 13:18:50 +1 13:19:30 Shawn: in terms of order, is there benefit to having most common ones first. What might we do regarding placement? 13:20:15 Paul: Okay with putting "writing" between "Designing" & "dev'l". Would put designing first. 13:20:28 Shawn: any other input on order? 13:20:52 Shawn: Kevin, please put notes on any decision you decide. 13:21:04 Kevin: will put issues in GitHub. 13:21:31 Shawn: probably don't want alphabetical. 13:21:49 icons https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/35532/eowg1june2015/results#xq4 13:21:51 Shawn: Idea was to have icons for the overview page. 13:22:38 q+ to clarify my answer 13:22:53 ack j 13:22:53 jon, you wanted to clarify my answer 13:24:09 Jon: I'm huge proponent of iconography. Currently, too text heavy. 13:24:28 Happy to create images but not with coming up with what they should be. 13:25:07 q+ 13:25:33 Shawn: Anabelle liked iconography but she's on leave. 13:26:34 Shawn: So okay with leaving the idea of icons open but need to decide who will address it. 13:26:42 q+ 13:26:50 s/Anabelle/Anna Belle 13:27:05 ack b 13:27:19 Jon: maybe he, Howard and Brent could discuss icons offline. 13:27:33 Shawn: probably best to do it online. 13:28:05 +100 Brent 13:28:13 Brent: would go further with icons - once you learn icons, it's the quickest recognition tool. 13:28:35 Assume when you put the icon on the overview page will carry over to tips page. 13:29:14 Does the W3C need to create it's own icons or is here a catalogue we can pull from. Would be happy to pull from an icon. 13:29:56 q? 13:29:57 Shawn: don't have a catalogue of resources right now but Jon and Annabelle like to create these. 13:30:15 ack k 13:30:26 We can start with creative commons and then have Jon and Annabelle fill in any holes. 13:30:49 s/Annabelle /Anna Belle/ 13:30:59 Kevin: might be beneficial to see how icons might work - not the selection - but how it goes in there. 13:31:06 s/Annabelle /Anna Belle/ 13:31:13 rrsagent, draft notes 13:31:13 I'm logging.

Will that be added? 14:06:46 EricE: don't know if it's worthwhile to have search. Search seemed to be confusing to people. 14:07:08 .. would be useful to bet more user feedback on this that we're planning. 14:07:28 Shawn: my personal feeling was that search was too complex. 14:07:45 .. Most people can just do cntl-F to find. 14:08:14 Howard: User feedback, people confused by way the search worked.

If had 14:13:41 .. filter running it would still show the information not on the screen. 14:14:07 EricE: some people didn't expect it to work that way. 14:15:08 Shawn: personally, preferred the layout with the filters on the right. Prefers the left side cleaner. 14:15:40 .. Minor point: expand/collapse icons don't work. Should fix before usability testing. 14:15:49 Actions: EricE to take a look at the expand/collapse icons. 14:16:08 .. Would encourage that we have both versions for usability testing. Alternate between which version people see first. 14:17:00 I understand your perspective, but I still prefer everything on the left. On one side 14:17:01 Howard: can see customize & filters on right. but like tags and overview onm left 14:17:10 +1 to Howard 14:17:50 Shawn: expand/collapse, arrows don't make as much sense as they did before. 14:18:11 .. Like the heading being at the top instead of the overview - not a major thing. 14:18:32 .. EricE, can you say how you see the tags working? 14:19:15 EricE: Thinking of 2 different possibilities for the tags - either hide or show very faint success criteria not applicable to that tag. 14:19:40 .. show the SC applicable to that tag. For eg. if select contrast, everything would fade 14:19:58 .. but items related to contrast. 14:21:18 Shawn: think it's vital that if things are hidden we make that clear. 14:21:51 EricE: if open filter level and make selection, that happens immediately. 14:22:21 Action: EricE to make clear when the main view updates 14:22:21 Created ACTION-316 - Make clear when the main view updates [on Eric Eggert - due 2015-06-12]. 14:22:25 Action: EricE to show filtered items. 14:22:25 Created ACTION-317 - Show filtered items.

With eval tool, want to print things for manager. 14:24:41 EricE: there will be a print option but will be a challenge to do that without messing 14:25:06 .. up the layout. Don't know if it will be possible to print one small section.
