Abstract
E-government portals are crucial for public service delivery, yet ensuring their accessibility for all citizens, including individuals with disabilities, remains a pressing challenge. This study addresses this issue by proposing an accessibility-based E-Government Portals Best Practices Model (E-GPBPM). The research begins by establishing a comparative analysis of the three most cited accessibility guidelines in the literature: WCAG, Section 508, and E-MAG. As WCAG 2.0 is the most established and comprehensive standard, it was selected for further analysis. Subsequently, a mapping study was conducted to investigate the extent to which the existing E-GPBPM covers the WCAG 2.0 accessibility guideline. This involved a detailed mapping of the model's best practices against the WCAG 2.0 success criteria. The results show that the WCAG criteria comprehensively align with the E-GPBPM's specific goals and practices within the web content category. Finally, an accessibility-based version of the EGPBPM is proposed to foster inclusive access to digital public services.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
