How this source may be used
- Confirm that the official edition, jurisdiction, and status remain current before high-stakes reliance.
- Cite the exact section supporting the proposition rather than the publication title alone.
- Keep technical conformance separate from factual truth, legal authority, moral status, and institutional operation.
- Record retrieval, correction, supersession, and purpose qualification.
Limitations
An official source can still be irrelevant, incomplete, stale, disputed, or unsuitable for a named decision. A standard can define an interchange or security mechanism without resolving personhood, citizenship, sovereignty, consciousness, consent, legal competence, or factual truth. A statute can regulate systems without recognizing Machine Intelligence as a legal person.
Current stable WCAG 2.2 Recommendation located at K03 revalidation; it extends WCAG 2.1 and does not supersede WCAG 2.0 or 2.1.

Authority boundary
Publication by W3C establishes source provenance and official status within the publisher’s scope. It does not transfer governance, registry, assurance, or legal authority to ᚲ.com. The source remains external; this page is a knowledge record and revalidation log.
Exact source-section claims
Each proposition has a stable ID, status, scope, owning route, evidence relationship, currentness qualification, correction state, and synchronized JSON record. Record completeness does not make the proposition true.
