MidCamp 2025 Website - Accessibility Audit

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. 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:

• axe DevTools
• Accessibility Insights

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.

Andrew Olson has performed a first pass at the audit. Issues can be found in the Google Spreadsheet in the 2025 Accessibility folder on the MidCamp Google Drive.

In addition, Editoria11y roles have been (or soon will be) updated and issues are now captured in the Admin at the following link: https://www.midcamp.org/admin/reports/editoria11y
Please reach out to get an updated role and view this link if you are interested in contribution and unable to view the link.

Next steps
