What

Adds a new spec page, Redundant entry, documenting WCAG 2.2 Success Criterion 3.3.7 Redundant Entry (Level A): information a user already entered (or was given) earlier in the same process must be auto-populated or available to select, not typed again — subject to the three normative exceptions (essential, required for security, no longer valid).

Also:

  • Wires relatedSlugs on the four adjacent form/auth pages (accessible-authentication, form-errors, form-labels, mobile-form-inputs).
  • Adds the added changelog entry.
  • Regenerates the two count-driven OG images (page count 139 → 140) plus the new per-page OG.

Why now

Daily standards scan. The spec already covers WCAG 2.2 SC 3.3.8 / 3.3.9 (Accessible Authentication) but had no page for 3.3.7, a Level A criterion that applies to virtually every multi-step form, signup, and checkout. Two sibling WCAG 2.2 gaps were found in the same scan and flagged separately (see below) rather than bundled here — one topic per PR.

Status justification

recommended, not required. WCAG conformance is a strong "a modern site should do it" signal, but the web-platform contract does not break without it, so per the repo's status discipline it stays recommended (matching accessible-authentication).

Primary source

Verification

  • astro check → 0 errors, 0 warnings.
  • astro build → 160 pages, exit 0. Page renders at /spec/accessibility/redundant-entry/, the .md endpoint builds, and it appears in /llms.txt and /checklist/.

Draft — for maintainer review, not auto-merge.

New spec page documenting WCAG 2.2 Success Criterion 3.3.7 Redundant
Entry (Level A): information already entered earlier in the same process
must be auto-populated or selectable rather than re-typed, subject to the
essential / security / expired exceptions. Status `recommended` — WCAG
conformance, not a platform-breaking contract.

Wires relatedSlugs on accessible-authentication, form-errors, form-labels,
and mobile-form-inputs; adds a changelog entry; regenerates the two
count-driven OG images plus the new per-page OG.

Found by the daily standards scan: we cover WCAG 2.2 SC 3.3.8/3.3.9 but
not 3.3.7. Source: W3C WCAG 2.2 Understanding 3.3.7.
