Safety Issue with some Animations
Hi,
The animated gun turret image here is a seizure risk. A video version, which does not autoplay, and which has controls to start or stop it might be much better.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Animated_gun_turret.gif
The current Manual of Style says that any animation of more than 5 seconds should include control features for readers to stop the animation. And no animation should fire more than 3 flashes per second. The animation in question is a repeating gif of 7.7 seconds.
I've been trying to find help via Wikiproject Accessibility, the Tea House, Files for Discussion, etc. but still don't know how to address images like this. 173.73.0.102 (talk) 22:58, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
