MidCamp 2025 Website - Accessibility Audit

Created on 11 December 2024, about 2 months ago

The last accessibility audit for the MidCamp site was in 2020. A new audit is needed to ensure the site is in compliance with our target standards. In addition, the team should consider updating the Accessibility statement to update the standards to WCAG 2.2 Level AA.

To accomplish this, we need a volunteer to:

  • Set up an Audit Spreadsheet to capture any violations in the 2025 MidCamp Accessibility Google drive
  • Run Manual accessibility tests using recommended tools
  • Create subtasks for remediation

    Phil Alonso and Andrew Olson met to discuss the accessibility audit on Wednesday, January 15.

    From this conversation, Phil was able to coordinate with the website team to get the Editoria11y module installed on the MidCamp website πŸ“Œ Install and Enable Editoria11y Accessibility Checker Fixed . A preliminary list of issues has been captured by the Editoria11y module and is attached as a CSV. Note that these issues need to be reviewed and tasks defined to fix them.

    Phil and Andrew also identified which tools will be used for the audit in addition to the Editoria11y module. The following Chrome browser extensions will be used to identify issues:

    Phil reached out to AmyJune Hineline (volkswagenchick) and was able to get a copy of a spreadsheet template we can use to capture the accessibility issues. Phil plans to share this spreadsheet by uploading it to the 2025 MidCamp Google Drive "Accessibility" folder.

    Next steps are to use the tools to identify issues, then add them to the template spreadsheet. Once identified, we will create tasks to address the issues and keep the spreadsheet up to date with progress.
