Commitment
The Bow Tie Guide aims to provide content that can be used with keyboards, screen readers, zoom and common assistive technologies.
Current measures
{list_html(['Semantic headings and landmarks.','Visible keyboard focus and a skip link.','Text alternatives for meaningful images.','Responsive layouts that reflow on smaller screens.','Colour contrast chosen for readable text.','Tools that work without a mouse.','Print-friendly article styling.'],'checklist')}Known limitations
Third-party advertisements and services may not provide the same level of accessibility. Some older browsers may not support every enhancement, but core article content remains available.
Feedback
Report an accessibility problem through the WRS help desk. Include the page URL, the task you were attempting and the browser or assistive technology if comfortable doing so.
Testing approach
Core pages are checked for heading order, internal-link availability, alt text, keyboard-operable controls and reflow at narrow widths. Automated checks help identify errors, but reader reports remain important because assistive technologies and browsing environments differ.
Alternative access
Articles can be printed using browser controls. If an interactive feature is unavailable, the surrounding article explains the same decision in text so the tool is not the only route to the information.
