On the home page of the backend there are several modules that display information.

  • Logged in User
  • Popular Articles
  • User actions (with edit user and edit plugin, etc. links)
  • Recently Added Articles
  • ...

In these modules the link is missing a title attribute, which describes to the user where the link is leading to. In the manage overviews there is a title attribute on the links, which is only called e.g. "edit test". I think it would be better if the text would display: "Edit Article with the title: test". / "Edit Plugin with the title: Content - Joomla"

We're talking about two different things. I also say here that the title is completely missing. If it is intended and you can prove it for a better a11y, we must also remove it from the manage overviews.

Dont you think that this is overly verbose?

I believe the thinking behind the current text was that it "made sense" in the context of the row. I appreciate that it makes less sense in the context of a list of links that a screen reader might generate

Can we close this as there is a merged PR or is it still open because of action logs? If action logs, can someone tell me what needs to be done there exactly?
