| 17 | + <h2>Abstract</h2> |
| 18 | + <p>This document records all known errors in the <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG21/">Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1</a> specification.</p> |
| 19 | + <p>The errata are numbered, classified as <a href="#substantive">Substantive</a> or <a href="#editorial">Editorial</a>, and listed in reverse chronological order of their date of publication in each category. </p> |
| 20 | + <p>Each entry has the following information:</p> |
| 21 | + <ul> |
| 22 | + <li>A unique entry number</li> |
| 23 | + <li>The date it was added to the errata page.</li> |
| 24 | + <li>The section referred to.</li> |
| 25 | + <li>A description of the problem and correction if applicable.</li> |
| 26 | + <li>A rationale for making the change (not required for editorial errata).</li> |
| 27 | + </ul> |
| 28 | + <p>Substantive corrections are proposed by the <a href="https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/">Accessibility Guidelines Working Group</a>, which has consensus that they are appropriate; they are not to be considered normative until a new Recommendation is published following the <a href="https://www.w3.org/2018/Process-20180201/#revised-rec">process to revise a Recommendation</a>.</p> |
| 29 | + <p>Please view the <a href="/WAI/standards-guidelines/wcag/commenting/">public comment instructions</a> if you would like to comment to the Working Group. Comments submitted are publicly available in the <a href="http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-agwg-comments/">archive for the Accessibility Guidelines Working Group public comments mailing list</a>.</p> |
