Re: CfC: Checklist for Proposals

Thanks Gregg, you did mention that before and I included it in the github wiki version, but didn’t have it in this version. I do think that this is easily handled in the wiki template description (https://github.com/w3c/wcag21/wiki/Proposals-for-new-Success-Criteria) and this is a simple editorial change anyway so we will make it happen.

Thanks,

looks good

one suggested change

If making changes to an existing SC it often involves both adding and deleting words.  This can be very difficult to read when done.

  *   one suggestion was to include BOTH —  the original SC without edits  and  -- the final one without markup —  in addition to the one marked up changes  (probably presented in this order)
     *   New one with changes marked up
     *   Clean version of new SC
     *   Clean version of original SC

That will make it much easier for everyone — including, I suspect, screen reader users.

CALL FOR CONSENSUS – ends Thursday August 11 at 4:45pm Boston time.

This is a call for a Checklist for Proposals for new or changed Success Criteria.  The checklist was discussed on the WG call, and approved (http://www.w3.org/2016/08/09-wai-wcag-minutes.html#resolution03).

The checklist for proposals can be viewed at https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/wiki/WCAG_2.1_Success_Criteria#Checklist_for_proposals_for_new_Success_Criteria_or_to_change_existing_Success_Criteria


If you have concerns about this proposed consensus position that have not been discussed already and feel that those concerns result in you “not being able to live with” this position, please let the group know before the CfC deadline.

Thanks,
