Actual Results

The “Get help“ link at the beginning of the page has been marked up as a heading (<h2>) element unnecessarily. However, it does not constitute a heading of the page.

As a result, screen reader users will find it difficult to understand the structure of the content present on the page.

Expected Results

Screen reader should not identify the link as a heading for their users.

Remove the <a> element outside the <a> heading element. If required, use CSS to maintain the presentation of the page.

Code Example:

<h2>Edit Current Filter</h2>                                                      
<a class="help-lnk" href="https://docs.atlassian.com/jira/jsw-docs-0912/Saving+your+search+as+a+filter#editing_filters" data-helplink="online" target="_jirahelp" resolved="" aria-describedby="aui-tooltip">
    <span class="aui-icon aui-icon-small aui-iconfont-help">Get help!</span>
</a>

Workaround

Currently, there is no known workaround for this behaviour. A workaround will be added here when available
