Assuming this is about the Wikipedia Android mobile application.
@A.cantone2: Does this create actual problems, or is this 'only' some app saying what other apps should do for unclear reasons? :)

@Aklapper: It can create problems for people with disabilities who use the app. With the Accessibility Scanner app you can check all the accessibility "errors" in the mobile app.

To be clear, these are not errors, but merely suggestions provided by the Accessibility Scanner app. Nevertheless we will consider them in our next evaluation for accessibility enhancements.
