Ambiguous to users in general

From WCAG WG

WCAG definition of "ambiguous to users in general"

ambiguous to users in general

the purpose cannot be determined from the link and all information of the Web page presented to the user simultaneously with the link (i.e., readers without disabilities would not know what a link would do until they activated it) Example: The word guava in the following sentence "One of the notable exports is guava" is a link. The link could lead to a definition of guava, a chart listing the quantity of guava exported or a photograph of people harvesting guava. Until the link is activated, all readers are unsure and the person with a disability is not at any disadvantage.

Additional guidance when applying to ICT

This applies directly as written, and as described in WCAG 2.0 glossary replacing "web page" with "non-embedded content or software".
