DOCS REVISION TO MAKE THEM NON-ABLED-SPECIFIC
I remember that somewhere zvi was mentioning that the instructions in the translation strings should (ideally) be revised so that they did not privilege (i think) sighted individuals accessing the site, but I don't remember where her entry was so I can't quote it in detail. I remember it saying that instructions in the strings referencing locations and actions in non-specific ways should be revised in a more detailed way so that they were non-ambiguous to individuals accessing the site through a screen-reader interface[?]
Just throwing that out there, since the translation strings I'm copyediting still seem to be privileging sighted and physically able individuals.

I've tried to taek out the "click here" links when I can.
The other ones that bug me are the "click the button below" ones :/
