Source-review policy
Regulatory guidance and product documentation have different jobs.
Regulatory and implementation guidance
Resource articles begin with primary Commission, EUR-Lex, W3C, WordPress, and WooCommerce sources. They distinguish formal source statements from practical review advice and record a future source-review date.
Notice27 product documentation
The documentation, compatibility evidence, and changelog describe the version actually sold. Product claims are not inferred from a general guidance article.
Sources are rechecked monthly through September 2026 and after a material Commission, WordPress, WooCommerce, or WCAG change. Subscribe to the RSS feed.
