A Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT) is a template containing information regarding how an Information and communications technology product or service conforms with Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended (29 U.S.C. § 794 (d)).
Among other tasks, these organizations are responsible for regular monitoring of public sector sites, [26] review disproportionate burden cases and accessibility statements, and guarantee both accessibility compliance and effective handling of feed-back given by users.
Guidelines on this page are ordered primarily by priority, then difficulty. The priority levels are determined by the Accessibility Success Criteria rankings A, AA, and AAA (in descending order of importance as accessibility considerations) of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0.
The first web accessibility guideline was compiled by Gregg Vanderheiden and released in January 1995, just after the 1994 Second International Conference on the World-Wide Web (WWW II) in Chicago (where Tim Berners-Lee first mentioned disability access in a keynote speech after seeing a pre-conference workshop on accessibility led by Mike Paciello).
Web accessibility, or eAccessibility, [1] is the inclusive practice of ensuring there are no barriers that prevent interaction with, or access to, websites on the World Wide Web by people with physical disabilities, situational disabilities, and socio-economic restrictions on bandwidth and speed.
Templates are sorted by their level of impact on accessibility: "1: detrimental", this template contains elements that must be accessible, in order to conform to A accessibility guidelines. "2: important", this template contains elements that should be accessible, in order to conform to AA accessibility guidelines.

The approach to make Wikipedia accessible is based on the W3C's official WCAG 2.0 (a.k.a. ISO/IEC 40500:2012) and ATAG 2.0 guidelines. The guidelines provided by this accessibility project are merely an attempt to reword the WCAG 2.0 into a guideline hopefully easier to understand for editors who are not familiar with accessibility or web development.
