Audio description Understanding covers "important" visual content (#4324)
Two changes to the first note in the informative Understanding document: - add "important" to match the first change to the definition note. - swap out the word "provided" in preference for the synonym "conveyed" The second change is made in the belief that "conveyed" is more accurate. For example, if a scene shows something blowing up, and there is the sound of an explosion that matches, it is more accurate to say 'the sound _conveys_ the visual explosion' than to say 'the sound _provides_ the visual explosion'.
