Task 3 edit
BRFA 3 makes NavFrame accessible in user space. This is a one-time run of approximately 2400 edits to user pages. The primary effort adds "collapsed" where expected and removes display: none where defined on the NavContent element.
NavFrame has been deprecated for a long time. Long before it was deprecated, an earlier form of the NavFrame function encouraged setting CSS display: none on the elements that were being hidden. This is bad accessibility practice, as screen readers do not read content that is set to display: none. Users who do not have Javascript enabled also cannot see this content. Lastly, because NavFrame is deprecated, at some point after its uses in main space are removed or replaced, NavFrame also will be removed. At that time, content inside of NavFrame with display: none set will be hidden from all users regardless. This task makes it so no uses of NavFrame are hidden in the immediate future from less-able users and no uses are hidden from everyone at the time NavFrame is turned off.
(It will also make all content with NavFrame display as uncollapsed at that time. As a user, you may wish to update your page so that your collapsing elements continue to work as you prefer. A short guide is available at Wikipedia:NavFrame#Migration.)
BRFA 3B extended task 3 to all other non-article spaces.
Task 2 edit
BRFA 2 is approved to correct the lint error associated with a number of DYKN pages.
Task 1 edit
BRFA 1 approves removal of <center> where it is present inside |footnote= of {{US Census population}} in the mainspace. This is a one-time run of approximately 20,000 edits, mostly to articles on US locations. AWB general fixes is enabled.
This is part of the WP:Lint effort as <center> is an obsolete HTML tag. From a visual point of view today, there is likely to be no change for the majority of readers. From an non-visual point of view, these tags cause validation warnings. At some point in the future (either in MediaWiki or in your Internet browser), these tags will not appear as they do today (it is likely that the tag will either be silently ignored, or displayed as the literal string <center>un-centered thing</center>).
This effort is a low-hanging fruit out of the 16 million obsolete tag errors. This task is not authorized to remove <center> everywhere. (<center> is sometimes context-sensitive, especially in tables where there are superior replacement options.)
