Bug #: 42394
Summary: After introduction of WAI-ARIA roles, Voice-Over is
extremely slow
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: Macintosh
OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.7
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Templates
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
I'm reporting this for a blind person, who sent an e-mail to
[email protected]. He uses Voice-Over on his Mac as his screenreader
software (using Safari as browser).
He reports, that after loading a large article, Voice-Over and/or Safari use a
lot of CPU power and the PC hangs for seconds and even after this, voice-over
reacts very slowly. He reports that this problem occurs since 22nd of November,
the day the changes of bug 18338 became live on de.wikipedia.
With the introduction of WAI-ARIA groups, the whole article is one group for
Voice-Over. Before, each paragraph was an own group. Most likely this
screenreader software can't handle such large groups like a very long wikipedia
article.
For the moment, he can't really use wikipedia.
