C Acceptable. Readable, but working against you
Loading speed is diagnostic only; it does not affect this grade or search ranking.
| Subject | Weight | Score |
|---|---|---|
| Interruption | 35.71% | not scored |
| Readability | 28.57% | 71 |
| Accessibility and keyboard | 21.43% | 74 |
| Stability and weight | 14.29% | 100 |
This letter rests on 64% of the grade. The subjects marked “not measured” are left out rather than scored as zero (which would fail a site for something nobody looked at) or as full marks (which would be a claim we have not earned). How this is worked out.

Observed interruptions
Ad and tracker counts above are network requests, not counts of visible ads or separate companies. They do not affect the interruption score.
Interruption evidence is incomplete or needs review, so this subject is not scored. Missing evidence is not treated as an interruption-free page.
A sampled page triggered a popup, blocking-interstitial or audible-autoplay gate. The interruption score needs review; those findings are not treated as quiet browsing.
The type, and who can use it
Measured on 1 rendered page; latest measurement 2026-09-05. Every number is a mechanical fact about the page, not a judgment of its design.
| What | Measured | The bar |
|---|---|---|
| Body type size | 12px, 16px at phone width | 16px, the browser default |
| Characters per line | 67 | 45–90 |
| Line height | 1.25 | 1.5 (WCAG 1.4.8) |
| Text contrast | 14.2:1 | 4.5:1 (WCAG AA), 7:1 (AAA) |
| Text column | 67% of the window | at least 45% |
| Reflows at phone width | yes | WCAG 1.4.10 |
| Dark mode | no | noted, not scored |
| Automated accessibility checks | no automated violations detected | WCAG 2.1 A and AA, via axe-core |
| Keyboard | no trap; focus visible on 97% of stops | never trapped, always visible |
| Structure | no main landmark, 2 h1, 1 skipped heading level | a main landmark, one h1, no skips |
| Alt text | 0% of 11 content images described | every content image |
| Reader mode | parses | parses (Firefox’s Readability) |
Automated accessibility checks catch an estimated 30–40% of real problems, so “no automated violations detected” is a floor, not a certificate. We never say “accessible”. How these are scored.
Tripped on some pages, but not most
| Gate | What tripped |
|---|---|
| G5 | Full-screen interstitial with no way past it |
At least one page we rendered failed this outright, but most did not, so the site is indexed. Which page you land on may well decide whether you can read it.
Measurement dates
Oldest evidence 50 days old. At least one subject is due for rechecking (30 days or older). Dates refer to the evidence, never the card rebuild.

Measurement history
Newest 4 saved observations. Each describes a sampled page at that time; older, failed or held observations do not override the current reviewed card. Raw automated findings may have been superseded by later review or detector replay. No previous grade is inferred.

How we know
| Pages rendered | 3 |
|---|---|
| Site verdict | errors dropped; majority of remaining; ties to the stricter verdict; active reviewed exclusions override admission |
| Figures shown | numeric measurements generally use medians; interruption costs, overflow, keyboard traps and accessibility failures retain the strongest observed finding |
| Cited by | 8,122 encyclopedia articles |
Think this is wrong? It may well be — the measurements cover only a handful of pages. Any reviewed admission decision and its dated evidence are shown above. Re-measurement on request is not built yet, so there is no button here that would do anything. When it exists it will be free and it will be on this page.
