2016-02-17: ACTION-2014 Fred to review.
The one thing to watch is when the uploading media (videos, audio, pictures) API matures, it would be nice to have a way to assign an alt text or a closed caption track. Since they don't have any server side implementations yet - it is too early to worry about it.
2016-03-02: Fred reports we should come back to this when it matures. Resetting action to be due in 6 months to check.
2016-06-29: Received explicit review request. Advancing the deferred action to review now.
--Fred Esch (talk) 20:31, 5 July 2016 (UTC) Micropub needs an accessibility section.
- Images and media should be able to be uploaded and downloaded with associated accessibility info. For instance, an image should be able to be uploaded and downloaded with the appropriate img element alt attribute or a description. Media should be able to be tied to a closed caption track.
- You may be able to associate images/media with accessibility info, however there are no examples of how to do it and no accessibility section to explain how they should be linked. There are references to microformats 2, but without a close reading of microformats, my guess is if you use microformats for accessibility information you will have an ad hoc solution - not a standards compliant implementation.
