Change alt text for card image in 311 data md file #3090
Description
Overview
We need to ensure that alt text for images adhere to Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). For this issue, we will change the alt text for the 311 data project card image on citizen engagement page.
Details
Designers and PMs identified that some alt texts in the Citizen Engagement page should be changed because they are either inaccurate or too long. Ideally, alt text should be descriptive but short and succinct. According to the WCAG page, an accompanying alt text should be short. Additionally, the Functional Accessibility Evaluator (FAE) recommends for alt text to be no more than 100 characters.
Action Items
- For the file
_projects/311-data.md, change line 72 for the alt text:
from
card-image-alt: 311 project card
to
