This page in a nutshell: Wikipedia pages should have clear formatting, descriptive links, and alternative text so that content is easy to navigate and accessible for all readers, including those with disabilities.

Web accessibility is the goal of making web pages easier to navigate and read. Although primarily intended to support individuals with disabilities, it also benefits all readers. The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1^[a] provide the framework for the recommendations in this guideline. Adhering to these guidelines improves content navigation and enhances accessibility for all users, including individuals with disabilities.
