Usage[jhyuk a̱tyin ka]
This template should only be used to hide text from sighted readers when that text substantially duplicates adjacent text that is visible.
Table captions[jhyuk a̱tyin ka]
The main usage case is when a table is placed immediately below a heading, where the heading is effectively identical to the table's caption. This template may be used to hide the caption from a sighted reader (as it would be duplicative), while allowing a screen reader to hear the captionTa̱mpi̱let:Snd for example, if the screen reader reads a list of tables in the article to allow navigation directly to a particular table.
If the table is moved to another location away from the heading, then this template should be removed to allow sighted readers to see the table caption. This is a requirement of WCAG 1.3.1.
Example[jhyuk a̱tyin ka]
The table below has a caption "Example table" that will be voiced by a screen reader.
