Thought it helpful to look at for this section to explain the structure. 15:10:10 jeanne: Each guideline has one or more outcomes, which are testable statements so you can tell whether the guideline has been met. 15:10:22 jeanne: For the second topic, ACT it helping us work on this. 15:10:52 jeanne: For the methods, those are kind of reworking techniques, non-normative and technology-specific. 15:11:29 jeanne: Ex: HTML, iOS app. As technology changes, you could have a different method. Experimenting with the ACT group on that. 15:11:40 jeanne: For this survey, using the older structure. 15:11:43 q? 15:11:50 TOPIC: Question 1 - Approval to move to CFC 15:11:57 Chuck has changed the topic to: Question 1 - Approval to move to CFC 15:11:58 Rachael: We have two survey questions: 15:12:06 StefanS has joined #ag 15:12:09 present+ 15:12:20 TOPIC: Error Methods Prevention Guideline 15:12:51 Chuck has changed the topic to: Error Methods Prevention Guideline 15:12:51 https://w3c.github.io/silver/guidelines/#error-prevention 15:12:55 sarahhorton: We've reviewed a couple of times, so happy to answer questions. This guideline focuses on preventing errors (rather than responding to). 15:13:32 sarahhorton: It takes some SCs from WCAG 2.x, reworks them into WCAG 3 structure. Work through flows, from there to user needs, to methods that address those needs. 15:13:45 sarahhorton: Ended up with 3 methods associated with one outcome. 15:13:56 q? 15:14:00 q+ 15:14:04 sarahhorton: Questions on those, as you've reviewed those? 15:14:10 ack AWK 15:14:38 AWK: Having a hard time separating guideline from methods. What specifically is the guideline text? 15:15:18 sarahhorton: "Provide features that help people avoid errors" (please paste in if quoting?) 15:15:29 JF has joined #ag 15:15:34 Present+ 15:15:38 q? 15:15:39 sarahhorton: From there, the methods provide ways of providing input instructions. 15:16:06 sarahhorton: We have not yet provided the error-prevention how to, which would provide more information. 15:16:22 AWK: Where it says "3.6 Error prevention Guideline: Provide features that help users avoid errors." 15:16:34 AWK: "Provides instructions for inputs that have requirements (for example, required, date format, password) so users know how to provide valid information." 15:16:37 https://w3c.github.io/silver/guidelines/#error-prevention 15:16:44 jon_avila has joined #ag 15:16:48 present+jon_avila 15:17:04 AWK: Functional categories, Critical errors, Rating as well? 15:17:17 q? 15:17:31 sarahhorton: A question of "ready enough" for sending out for public feedback. 15:18:00 AWK: The guideline looks fine. Not a normative item right now, right? Conformance would happen with methods. 15:18:12 https://w3c.github.io/silver/guidelines/#error-prevention 15:18:13 q+ 15:18:39 Rachael: Looking at content on that page. The link on that page is incorrect, no how to written yet, the link needs fixing. 15:18:55 To AWK: I'm unclear that conformance is on the method, as I expect methods are not normative. Maybe I'm confused? 15:19:01 karen_herr has joined #ag 15:19:04 present+ 15:19:09 q? 15:19:15 GN015: Also have confusion about normative vs. methods, since difficult to test except at the method level. 15:19:39 q+ 15:19:55 sarahhorton: It's not complete, we're rolling this out in front of us while we build the content. 15:20:38 sarahhorton: Working on other aspects of this, small group working on it (would love more to join!). 15:20:53 GN015: Maybe placeholder for missing pieces? 15:21:03 +1 to Gundula regarding placeholders 15:21:39 GN015: It currently looks like only instructions and nothing else, so good to note other things likely to come. 15:21:43 ack david-macdonald 15:22:02 Q+ to ask about Credits https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/WCAG3/2021/methods/instruction-for-completing-task/#tests-button 15:22:23 david-macdonald: I agree with that. If putting out a sketch for the world to look at, we should note the full structure coming so they have that context. 15:22:47 david-macdonald: We haven't had the discussion about Rating, yet. I'd rather have that discussion before we put it out to the world. 15:23:09 Concerned this is general UX goodness, and wondering what's a11y specific? 15:23:17 Rachael: Catch 22 where we need to have the discussion to have more content, but need more content to have that discussion. 15:23:22 qv? 15:23:53 Rachael: Moving forward as we can, but we need to go back and forth to have an ability to make progress. 15:24:05 q+ to remind AGWG that they resolved to add more content so they could develop the conformance 15:24:16 david-macdonald: Traditionally, we wouldn't put something in a draft unless we broadly agreed on things. 15:24:20 ack AWK 15:24:25 q- 15:24:28 Rachael: Lots of editor's notes pointing to these. 15:25:21 AWK: This guideline has one outcome currently. Really, the guideline is that one line of text. Whether we feel like this is a reasonable outcome to fit within it. 15:25:38 AWK: Including the outcome in the survey where it asks if you like this guideline? 15:26:47 jeanne: The testable statements, the outcomes, are organized into guidelines. In order to put in new methods, we need to associate them with an outcome. In order to have an outcome, we need the guideline. 15:27:29 jeanne: Actively working in a different group to make changes based on comments from FPWD. Need the whole package there to work through more content. 15:27:54 jeanne: Whole "package" calls itself a guideline, the outcome is part of that package so we can start working on methods. 15:28:20 AWK: Question 2: move guideline to CFC? Q3: related methods to CFC? 15:28:21 present+ 15:28:31 Rachael: We can also change how we survey if that'd help. 15:29:11 yeah, I get lost in the layout of this. any hand holds would help 15:29:21 AWK: It'd help to prefix with things like "Outcome: " to better see this hierarchy in order to evaluate. 15:29:29 Rachael: Outcome & methods as a separate part, then. 15:29:32 q? 15:29:41 ack JF 15:29:41 JF, you wanted to ask about Credits https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/WCAG3/2021/methods/instruction-for-completing-task/#tests-button 15:29:42 +1 to awk 15:29:47 https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/WCAG3/2021/methods/instruction-for-completing-task/#tests-button 15:29:47 Rachael: Focusing mainly on guideline at this point. 15:29:57 AWK: Also, what is the outcome image showing? Doesn't convey any meaning to me 15:30:45 JF: When I go to the method, tests tab. [reads from tab] I understand what it asks for, but I could do this as a tooltip, which would fail other things. 15:31:22 JF: Test for clear words, we haven't defined what that means. Expected results include a credit of 1 - what does that mean? 15:31:35 q+ to answer JF 15:31:38 Rachael: All in the methods test tab? 15:31:41 JF: Correct. 15:31:51 q- 15:32:03 Rachael: We'll come back to that when we get to methods, if good? 15:32:05 JF: Yes. 15:32:12 Proposed RESOLUTION: Move the Guideline to CFC after the link is fixed, placeholders are added, and "Outcome:" is added to template. 15:32:21 Rachael: Anything else to discuss at the guideline level? [crickets] 15:32:44 +.5 15:32:47 +1 15:32:48 +1 15:32:48 0 15:32:51 please repeat 15:32:51 +1 15:32:52 0 15:33:02 + 15:33:03 +1 15:33:04 +1 15:33:12 would like to see the placeholders before voting 15:33:12 +0 because the a11y distinction from general UX design is unclear to me 15:33:13 0 15:33:14 +1 15:33:32 0 15:33:33 AWK: Approving outcome as well? 15:33:37 0 15:33:43 Rachael: No, just guideline. 15:33:45 0 15:33:47 +1 15:33:53 +1 15:34:02 +0 15:34:15 0 15:34:19 RESOLUTION: Move the Guideline to CFC after the link is fixed, placeholders are added, and "Outcome:" is added to template. 15:34:32 TOPIC: Outcome text and methods 15:34:56 Rachael: This goes back to JF's point on testability, we have feedback in survey. 15:35:06 Chuck has changed the topic to: Outcome text and methods for Error Prevention 15:35:38 We are looking at: https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/WCAG3/2021/outcomes/input-instructions-provided 15:35:46 GN015: We discussed methods normative (no), yet by reading I feel they are normative as they form aspects of how they should be achieved. 15:36:08 q? 15:36:13 GN015: If you a specific context, you may need to use specific terms users would be familiar with. 15:36:33 GN015: In many contexts, an example is not necessarily needed. 15:36:50 https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/35422/error-prevention-July-21/results 15:37:21 GN015: Last example doesn't explain what it (*) means, fully. 15:37:33 GN015: Also seems to have some overlap between things. 15:38:24 q? 15:38:29 laura: Wondering, under instructions, [reads]. Others have a credit: 1, this one didn't. What does that mean? 15:38:34 +1, what is a Credit? 15:38:43 q+ to speak to a credit 15:38:47 laura: Under tests, what is a standard location? Possible to define? 15:38:48 ack jeanne 15:38:48 jeanne, you wanted to speak to a credit 15:39:30 sarahhorton: About credits, we reviewed credits at the previous meeting. Intention is to remove all of that for this round, since a prototype we had tried out for scoring. Will remove for next working draft. 15:39:32 q- 15:39:40 Q+ 15:39:53 sarahhorton: Predictable location: we have some things provided, can add more detail. 15:40:03 ack JF 15:40:05 Rachael: Covered everything? 15:40:10 laura: Yes, thank you. 15:41:01 JF: You mentioned it'll get taken out for the working draft. This conversation is about adding it to the draft? Concerned that as we drill in, we have editorial changes to make. Possible to remove those for this? 15:41:07 sorry, I have to drop 15:41:19 sarahhorton: Absolutely, and intended. Didn't get to it before the meeting. 15:42:29 Check that the page or view provides details about the required format. 15:42:35 Rachael: Getting a sense that we'll need to make more changes before we get into resolution to go to CFC, so now looking for any other feedback for Sarah & Co. to take into account before next meeting to review. 15:42:52 JF: For line pasted in, definitely need more details on this and what's acceptable. 15:43:07 q? 15:43:10 q+ to say I have a question about the critical error information and how the instruction method aligns 15:43:44 q+ to ask if we are going to re-review the content before deciding to go to CFC? 15:44:07 AWK: For the outcome, I have concerns that it asked for things not defined anywhere ("sensitive information"). 15:44:20 q+ to answer AWK 15:44:23 as a thought, the "details about the required format" likely also needs to be programmatically linked to the input 15:44:39 AWK: Questions about the rating scale, but ack that we'll need to do more there. 15:45:34 AWK: Looking at methods, wondering how we'll deal with things like tests for the method on required inputs indicated. Contrast of indicators, etc. 15:45:45 AWK: Will tests include checks like this to pass other methods? 15:46:01 +1 to AWK on that last point from me 15:46:24 -1 to assuming anything AWK 15:46:47 Q+ to ask about ATomic tests and ACT format 15:47:00 ack Ch 15:47:00 Chuck, you wanted to ask if we are going to re-review the content before deciding to go to CFC? 15:47:04 Chuck, yes we will re-review the outcome and method level content before moving to CFC 15:47:15 AWK: There are things we can assume users know. "Email:", input purpose. Do we have to have that information, like "joe@example.com", or do people know about entering email well enough? 15:47:36 q? 15:47:38 qv? 15:47:55 ack je 15:47:55 jeanne, you wanted to answer AWK 15:47:58 q? 15:48:08 mbgower: Looking at critical errors, relating to methods. [reads] 15:48:27 mbgower: Names can be sensitive in some contexts, so we need more details on that. 15:48:34 q+ to comment on "sensitive information" 15:48:40 ack mbgower 15:48:40 mbgower, you wanted to say I have a question about the critical error information and how the instruction method aligns 15:48:51 ack mbgower 15:49:16 q+ 15:49:22 Rachael_ has joined #ag 15:49:32 ack JF 15:49:32 JF, you wanted to ask about ATomic tests and ACT format 15:49:36 ack JF 15:49:56 JF: "Test instructions are present" - I'd like to see these written more in ACT-type format. 15:50:08 +1, we'll get there. 15:50:43 Rachael__ has joined #ag 15:50:44 JF: I'd like to see that the information is programmatically linked to the input, for instance. 15:50:48 q? 15:51:02 ack Chuck 15:51:02 Chuck, you wanted to comment on "sensitive information" 15:51:25 Chuck: mbgower suggested a list, but I think we should provide examples, rather than exhaustive. 15:51:26 ack david-macdonald 15:52:12 david-macdonald: Not as up on the structure as I'd like, I get confused on what's normative or not normative. 15:52:48 david-macdonald: Link takes me out somewhere else with a lot of information, I don't know what's normative or not. 15:53:04 Chuck, 'sensitive information' is a critical error. An author can totally fail this Guideline, so if we can't provide a list of sensitive information, it becomes pretty problematic 15:53:26 q+ to make suggestion for functional categories section 15:53:29 +1, we also want to get more design help on this! Please send suggestions of UX folks who can help. 15:53:47 I'd literally suggest some user testing on the format with new users 15:53:50 zakim, take up next item 15:53:50 I see a speaker queue remaining and respectfully decline to close this agendum, Rachael__ 15:53:54 ack AWK 15:53:54 AWK, you wanted to make suggestion for functional categories section 15:54:00 really appreciate the comment from people looking at wcag3 fresh, thank you 15:54:00 zakim, take up next item 15:54:00 agendum 3 -- Updated ACT-Silver proposal https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/35422/ACT-method-proposal/results -- taken up [from Rachael] 15:54:11 Rachael: ACT Silver proposal 15:54:52 jeanne: What we've been saying about error prevention, while Sarah's group moves forward, we also have another group looking at how we can make methods more testable (to points raised today). 15:55:25 jeanne: This is a proposal for how we could change the structure of the methods. Look at this thinking about how this structure can be applied to all of the guidelines we've already developed. 15:55:43 jeanne: If you like it, we can migrate those over and write new ones within this structure. 15:55:47 TOPIC: Approval to move ACT/Silver Method Proposal to CFC 15:55:56 Chuck has changed the topic to: Approval to move ACT/Silver Method Proposal to CFC 15:55:57 Wilco: Reviewed in depth, so proposal to dive in. 15:56:36 q+ to answer Gundula 15:57:05 Rachael__: Gundula's (sp?) point seems like it compares things with others rather than evaluating the structure. 15:57:10 q- 15:57:19 q? 15:58:02 laura: Structure looks fine, if you don't use decorative images. 15:58:07 +q to ask minor details on glossary terms 15:58:24 Rachael__: So comfortable with structure, just not content? 15:58:26 ack Jemma 15:58:26 Jemma, you wanted to ask minor details on glossary terms 15:58:27 q+ 15:58:27 laura: Yes. 15:58:34 q+ to ask for scribe change 15:59:10 Jemma: Test has lots of links to glossary terms, including old definition of ARIA.

I can live with AWK's rewording of bullet to Necessary 16:20:51 AWK: essential is narrowly defined, any change that is proposed for a11y if changing it is not doing the same thing, then that is the "out". 16:21:03 Straw Poll: Does essential cover the scenario of a legal form's presentation?
