It needs alt text to satisfy WCAG SC 1.1.1 "Non-text content". The alt text needs to be the same as the text in the image. I don't think the vertical bar is important, so it might benefit from some punctuation tweaks to sound more natural: alt="DrupalCon Global 2020. July 14-17, Online Everywhere."
These are also borderline failures of WCAG SC 1.4.5 "Images of Text". You might argue that it qualifies for the logotype exemption, but not all of the text amounts to a logotype. It would be better if used real text instead of an image-of-text.
But there is a lot of other stuff not a11y. For example, empty ALT on <div class="field field-name-field-cta-graphic field-type-image field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><img src="https://www.drupal.org/files/cta/graphic/DrupalJobs-blue_102.png" width="1957" height="414" alt="" /></div></div></div> <div class="cta-text"> isnt
But also colors (low contrast around "try drupal" in menu), and no ALT on <iframe width="391" height="220" src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/JfEZeTH9c1I?controls=0&modestbranding=1" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen=""></iframe>
No H3 but use of H4. etc etc...
And that is just the homepage... Should we make a new master ticket on a11y on d.o?
It does sound like the scope is beginning to widen and that is always the right time to create a new issue. If completed as far as the Issue Summary describes, mark this one as fixed and open another - might need moving to an infrastructure queue

avpadernoThe same happens to logged-in users.

gisleI think these things live in blocks that webmaster's don't have edit access to.
Not sure who does, but it might be Content. I suggest you move the issue there.

andrewmacpherson commentedThese are "images of text" for purposes of WCAG.
alttext needs to be the same as the text in the image. I don't think the vertical bar is important, so it might benefit from some punctuation tweaks to sound more natural:alt="DrupalCon Global 2020. July 14-17, Online Everywhere."Nitpick:
altis an attribute, not a tag.Comment #7
rachel_norfolkI believe I have added the required alt attribute. If someone can check, let me know.
