Comments on beta accessibility page, "What: Examples of Web Accessibility" section

Under "What: Examples of Web Accessibility" I think that the intro 
paragraph is perhaps redundant (this is already described above). It 
might be better to say that web accessibility is very diverse and cover 
sensory aspects (sight, hearing), input and output devices, and 
understandability.

Under "Alternative Text for Images" the first sentence "Alt text is the 
classic example" uses the jargon "alt text" without explanation. Maybe 
it could be punt in quotes to indicate that people are not expected to 
be familiar with it.

In the third paragraph "When equivalent alt text is provided, the 
information is available to everyone, including..." is very long and 
could be split up into "When equivalent alt text is provided, the 
information is available to all users. These include..."

The images and placeholders right and left make this section visually 
confusing for me.
