- Navigate to Site Administration > Development > Debugging.
- Ensure that the Show validator links box is checked.
- Save changes.
- Go to your site's home page or other publicly accessible web page on your Moodle site.
- VERIFY: The Section 508 Check and WCAG 1 (2,3) Check links should be gone from the footer of the page.
- VERIFY: The Validate HTML and the new Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) check links should both appear in the footer of the page.
- Click the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) check link.
- VERIFY: The link should take you to the WAVE report for the page being tested.
- Click the Validate HTML link.
- VERIFY: The link should take you to the Nu Html Checker for the page being tested.
Here is a sample screenshot of what you would see if you were testing this on the home page of moodle.org:

Description
The validator links referring to http://www.contentquality.com seems to be pointing to a freely available domain and do not hosts anymore the cynthia checker.
These links should be replaced with new ones (probably http://www.cynthiasays.com/) or removed.
Update (2021-10-15 by Michael Milette): Cynthiasays.com cannot be used from a link. So I replace both the Section 508 Check and the WCAG 1 (2,3) Check links with a WCAG 2.x Check link which uses the WAVE online accessibility checker.
