I ran an automated WCAG 2.0 AA check (axe-core and HTML_CodeSniffer) on current wiki.almalinux.org pages: home, installation guide, 9.8 release notes, Howto, Azure, ELevate, Help & Support and Transparency. Most content passes. The remaining failures come from the site theme/templates:

1. 1.4.3 Contrast (Minimum): code block syntax highlighting. Orange tokens #f08d49 on #264154 are 4.37:1 and comments #999999 on #264154 are 3.74:1 (4.5:1 required). Affects every code block.
2. 1.4.3 Contrast (Minimum): the "WARNING" custom block title, #e1ad00 on #ffefb5, is 1.79:1.
3. 1.4.3 Contrast (Minimum): grey sidebar group labels (e.g. "Older AlmaLinux 10 releases"), #969fa8 on #ffffff, are 2.68:1.
4. 1.1.1 Non-text Content: the homepage image /images/hero.webp has no alt attribute.
5. 2.1.1 Keyboard: scrollable code blocks (
) cannot receive keyboard focus, so keyboard users cannot scroll them (fix: tabindex="0").

Automated tools cover only part of WCAG; manual checks (screen reader, focus order) were not done. Keeping this open to track these fixes.
