Addressing Accessibility Issues[edit]
As indicated by the two tags at the top of the article, this article's accessibility issues remain after 1.5 years. These issues have impacted readers for too long. To improve, we need colorblind-friendly versions of the article's maps and images. We also need to add alt text. I would like to start a collaborative discussion to determine that I have identified every specific image that needs an addition. I aim to develop a complete list of every issue related to the two tags in order to (a) know what needs to be done and (b) have a reference that anyone can go back to when working towards solving these issues.
The following list is a draft of all the tasks that need to be completed in order to remove those two tags. I am brainstorming and imagine the list is incomplete. Please add additional tasks, criticize current ones, or provide other forms of feedback. If no one comments within the next two weeks, I am going to work down this draft list, task-by-task, until every issue is resolved.
List:
A.) Each of the following maps needs a colorblind-friendly version (9 tasks):
1.) Gestational Limits Map (Map 1)
2.) Pre-1973 Map of Laws (Map 2)
3.) Gestational Limits Map Mexico (Map 3)
4.) Abortion Access Protections Map (Map 4)
5.) US Minor Abortion Laws (Map 5)
6.) US Mandatory Waiting Period Laws (Map 6)
7.) Pre-abortion Counselling Law (Map 7)
8.) US Mandatory Ultrasound Laws (Map 8)
9.) State Abortion Funding Map (Map 9)
B.) Each of the following images needs a colorblind-friendly version (4 tasks):
1.) Histogram Abortion Gestational Age 2016 (Image 1)
2.) Abortion Rates 1973-2017 Guttmacher (Image 2)
3.) Gallup Abortion Opinion Poll (Image 3)
4.) Ms Magazine Cover Winter 2013 (Image 4)
C.) Each map or image above needs alternative text (13 tasks)
So far, I see a total of 26 tasks that need to be completed. What is missing? What could be removed? Are there other considerations? Let's get this done. Brom20110101 (talk) 22:49, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
- make all the images grayscale, just do that, plus add text 2600:1014:A020:FC95:C93E:1EE6:9D0B:B81F (talk) 20:40, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

Update the Florida Color to the same dark red as Georgia and South Carolina have. https://www.tallahassee.com/story/news/politics/elections/2024/04/01/florida-abortion-ban-upheld-by-supreme-court-ruling-desantis-heartbeat-law-next/71920329007/ 71.241.135.42 (talk) 21:43, 3 April 2024 (UTC)
- According to that article, it should be the purple that Utah is: 18 wk rather than the 15 we show. In 30 days it will become dark red, if nothing intervenes. — kwami (talk) 03:00, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
- Hm, 18 weeks is 15 weeks, which is really 12 weeks. So the author or editor of that article doesn't know what the law is. I think we'll wait for a better source. — kwami (talk) 03:07, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
- Not done: per Kwamikagami. —Sirdog (talk) 05:09, 5 April 2024 (UTC)
