      Actual Results

       
      The link text "Learn more" does not describe the destination it points to.
      As a result, screen reader users might not understand the purpose of the link effectively.

      Expected Results

      Link text should be meaningful and unique. 

      Provide accessible name as "Learn more about archiving a issue" for the link using the aria-label="" attribute on <a> element. 

      <a href="#" aria-label="Learn more about archiving a issue" .....>Learn more</a>

      Workaround

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