Perceivable
1 CSS rule with possibly too low text contrast
Required: 4.5:1 (normal) or 3:1 (large text). With an “assumed page background” the actual background could not be determined reliably — check in the browser if in doubt. Found among others: `.deetqq`: #fff auf #f9423a = 3.58:1
.deetqq
This is what you should do: Darken the text colour or lighten the background until the relevant minimum value is reached. Never use colour as the only distinguishing feature.
Operable
No <h1> heading in the delivered HTML
Each page should begin with exactly one h1. On pages built via JavaScript the h1 may only appear in the browser — then check in the rendered DOM.
body
This is what you should do: Insert a meaningful <h1> as the first heading (ideally already server-side).
Heading level skipped
Sequence: 4 → 4 → 4 → 4 → 4 → 4 → 4 → 4 → 4 → 4 → 4 → 4 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 4 → 4 → 3 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 3 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 3 → 3 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2 → 2. Levels should not be skipped (h2 → h4).
h1–h6
This is what you should do: Assign the heading levels without gaps.
Robust
2 duplicate id attributes
e.g. prefix__a, dspx_scroller. Breaks label-for and aria links.
[id]
This is what you should do: Assign unique ids.
Already handled correctly
- Text alternatives: no automatically recognisable issues

Method & limits
On 9/3/2026 the HTML that t3n.de delivers on a first visit without login was checked, plus up to four linked CSS files from the same domain. Checked: colour contrast (from CSS), text alternatives, form labelling, names of controls, heading structure, page title and page language, zoom lock, duplicate ids, positive tabindex values, landmarks.
Not checked: anything that arises via JavaScript, keyboard operability, visible focus, focus order, screen-reader announcement, content behind login, subpages. The automated test finds roughly 20–35% of WCAG breaches — the rest needs a manual check. A snapshot, not a legal decision.
