Talk:List of Billboard Hot 100 top-ten singles in 2020

Accessibility
List is not WP:ACCESS compliant for visually impaired readers, because colors are being used as a means of conveying information. Screen readers do not read "colors", they read text. Please see MOS:COLOR - ''Ensure that color is not the only method used to communicate important information. Especially, do not use colored background. Isaidnoway (talk)'' 09:25, 13 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Regarding the specific color used and being questioned under accessibility, I'd be open to changing the color to something more compliant. A symbol is also being used, in conjunction with the color, to identify the information being conveyed (namely, Hot 100 debuts in the top ten). With the visibility of that symbol, I could see the color being eliminated entirely. Note, this will affect numerous, similar articles as the Hot 100 top-ten singles lists going from 1995 to present are using this same style to convey the information. By the way, there's also color being used in other groups of Billboard Hot 100 articles such as List of Billboard Hot 100 number ones of 2020 and List of Billboard Hot 100 number-one singles of the 2010s (particularly to identify the number one Hot 100 song of the year). Not the same color, at least one of them being a bit lighter, but how would these fare as far as accessibility goes? MPFitz1968 (talk) 19:35, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
 * It's not mandatory for the colored background to be removed, because sighted readers can see it and comprehend the information. But screen readers don't read colors, and the symbol currently being used is not accessible, it needs to be a symbol that has an "alternate text" parameter, like these in the see also section here. You fill in the parameter with the information, like - indicates single's top 10 entry was also its Hot 100 debut, and then a screen reader is able to process that text when it gets to that row where the symbol is located. And if you do want to change the color, Wikimedia recommends these colors, as being rated "AA" or "AAA". I do appreciate you reaching out though, it is greatly appreciated.
