For each of the guidelines and success criteria in the WCAG [Web Content Accessibility Guidelines] 2. 0 document itself, the working group has also documented a wide variety of techniques. The techniques are informative and fall into two categories : those that are sufficient for meeting the success criteria and those that are advisory. The advisory techniques go beyond what is required by the individual success criteria and allow authors to better address the guidelines. Some advisory techniques address accessibility barriers that are not covered by the testable success criteria. 1, record 7, English, - advisory%20technique

Another problem Nelson had with the Clivus was pooling of liquid waste at the bottom of the tank, often becoming anaerobic (a smelly type of decomposition that occurs when insufficient oxygen is available). This led to his liquid-separation system in the Phoenix that allows manual respraying of the liquids onto the top of the composting pile. Alternately, the liquid can be drained away either into a conventional (downsized) septic system or a peat filtration bed. 3, record 10, English, - peat%20filtration
