Hi everyone, one of the most validation error we have with WCAG is about consecutive line breaks: basically a <br /><br /> presents in a page. This happens mostly in our translation pages since the linebreaks in plain syntax are translated in <br /> tags. Caty provided a lot of details about this error on the related issue: https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-15666. Currently we have around 140 validations failure because of this. Different proposal have been made in order to fix it, that I will try to sum-up here: A. Remove completely this validation check B. Add an exception for the translation pages C. Triggers the error only if more than 2 consecutive breaks is encountered D. Create a rendering syntax dedicated to translation pages A. Remove completely the validation check pros: * the easiest one * apparently the rule is not checked in other accessibility test, so its real purpose for accessibility is unclear cons: * IMO this rule is useful for checking the good practice of not using <br /> B. Add an exception for the translation pages pros: * same as for A cons: * ? C. Triggers the error only if more than 2 consecutive breaks is encountered pros: * ? cons: * we would miss some consecutive <br /> that are used only for style and we would catch some others in translations if we do 3 linebreaks instead of 2. IMO it's only moving the problem D. Create a rendering syntax dedicated to translation pages pros: * remove completely the problem of consecutive <br /> in translations * can maybe be used to present them in another way? cons: * need to develop/test/maintain a new rendering syntax I'd personnaly vote like this: A: +0 B: +1 C: -1 D: +0 WDYT?
