The only thing I would wonder is if it has no markup like headings should
it navigation is always a good idea the only time I can think of not having
any markup is on a simple paragraph

Hello:

I'm well versed in the WCAG 2.0 AA criteria where it applies to a static web
page and or forms but I'm a bit bewildered when it comes to a html document.

Let's just assume we have a plain document, no particular formatting to
speak of, no bullets or any headings. Would the same WCAG criteria apply to
this document?

Your thoughts please.

Jim
