II.C. ACCESS TO THE DISABLED.

We affirm our commitment to make Nupedia accessible to those contributors and users who are disabled, or differently able, as fully as possible.  We shall adopt whatever reasonable policies and procedures we find necessary to implement this; hence we intend Nupedia to be among the best-suited for browsing and use by the disabled.  The Nupedia staff will write or re-write our HTML in such a way as to assist disabled contributors and users.  Some examples:

  1. We will use text equivalents for all images.
  2. We will make descriptions of all video content.
  3. We will write transcripts and/or caption all audio content.
  4. We will include text summaries of all charts and graphs.

At the same time, we assume that some groups of disabled contributors and users do use assistive and/or adaptive technology and, thus, we see it as our goal to make our website, our procedures and policies, and our content compatible with this technology.  For example, for those individuals with voice-enabled browsers, we will try to provide a navigation system for our web pages and content that compliments such browsers.

We welcome the input and advice of persons who wish to see Nupedia improved in this regard.
