Here are some proposed re-wordings: Success Criteria for 4.1 Old: When the author is presented with a list of choices, that includes choices of formats or authoring practices that do not support content that conforms to WCAG, these should be *marked* to indicate that the choice may produce content that is inaccessible. Proposed rewording: Any choices of formats or *authoring practices* presented to the author (e.g., in menus, toolbars or dialogs) that will lead to the creation of content that does not comply to WCAG must be marked or labeled so that the author is aware of the consequences prior to making the choice. Success Criteria for 3.1 Old: Various, including: TB2: Every time that the *authoring tool* provides to the *author* any authoring guidance practice (TB: what is this? is it clearly defined? examples?) when the author creates/manages *content*, then all of that guidance must always direct the *author* in each instance to use *accessible authoring practices* (TB: examples?) in the creation/management of said content, such that the content is *WCAG-conformant* at all times JR on call: The authoring tool must never provide instructions (in text or graphics) to the author that, if followed, would result in Web content that does not *conform to WCAG*. JR on call: The authoring tool must never provide instructions (in text or graphics) to the author that, if followed, would result in a Web content accessibility problem. Proposed rewording: Whenever the tool provides instructions to the author, either the instructions (if followed) must lead to the creation of Web content that conforms to WCAG, or the author must be warned that following the instructions would lead to Web content accessibility problems.
