[4.0] Edit links in dashboard modules title missing, Edit links in management views Subject missing

[unknown-sudo]

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"

Sorry that's not correct and a common misconception

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

I've done a PR for 3 of these (#27843). actionslogs is a bigger issue and needs a seperate pr
