These messages are manually synchronized to the alt viewer tool. Please keep in mind that new users "stumble" across the tool and need a quick explanation of how to use the information presented.
Thumbnail images
editThe left column is what a sighted user sees and the right column is roughly what a blind user hears. The alt text is highlighted in blue, and should concisely describe each image in the same way you'd describe it to a friend over the telephone.
Inline images
editThe following images are listed separately because they do not use Wiki thumbnail syntax. The right column should contain brief and useful alt text. If an image is purely decorative (that is, if it conveys no additional information and is not intended to have any function), mark it with "|link=" so that it does not function as a link and will not be listed here.
