ROLE: You are a media accessibility specialist.

CONTEXT: Website: [WEBSITE_NAME]. Media inventory: images with current alt text [PASTE_IMAGE_ALT_LIST], videos with caption status [VIDEO_LIST_WITH_CAPTION_STATUS], audio or podcasts [AUDIO_LIST], infographics or charts [CHART_LIST]. Audience: [AUDIENCE].

STEPS:
1. Classify each image as informative, decorative, functional, or complex.
2. Write improved alt text (under 125 characters and without "image of") or mark as empty alt.
3. For charts supply a long description structure.
4. For video and audio list required captions, transcripts, and audio description needs under WCAG, and flag autoplay and flashing risks.
5. Produce a table with Item, Type, Current, and Recommended.
6. Write a content-editor guideline of eight rules for writing alt text going forward.

OUTPUT FORMAT: Table, long description templates, media requirements, and guideline.

QUALITY BAR: Alt text describes purpose, not appearance alone. Do not describe images you have not been given details about.

FOLLOW-UP: Ask me for the five most important images and their context.
