Answer to issue#6

These captions are from @alt attribute. On this website it is not good idea to use it.


More details:

Your example issue is a other case: caption comes from @data-caption in <a>

Our website: caption comes from @alt in <img>

According to Checklist 6.2.4:

If the image has no caption, but has meaningful text in the alt attribute, you may use that text as the caption. This is optional, we will not accept issues about alt-text missing from captions.
Tip: Please don‘t include meaningless alt-text as captions (e.g., the PlayStation blog always puts the name of the corresponding game in the alt attribute of all screenshots – there’s no need to reproduce that on the IV page.)

Very often @alt on this website has incorrect text. Here are examples (in your template):

https://theeagleonline.com.ng/suspended-majority-leader-of-benue-assembly-resigns/ -- not related to article or to image (article has not "airport" word)

https://theeagleonline.com.ng/nti-trains-head-teachers-counsellors-others-on-moral-hiv-aids-awareness/ (I cannot see any patients on image or word "London" in text)

https://theeagleonline.com.ng/air-force-on-fact-finding-mission-over-alleged-killing-of-innocents-in-zamfara/ (This article about Zamfara, not Kwara, there are no helicopters on the image and in text)

There are only some examples from the latest news. You can found a lot of such "captions"

The second big part of articles is using "captions" as title duplicate:

https://theeagleonline.com.ng/customs-opens-portal-to-recruit-3200-officers-official/

Amount of these pages is huge! This is not "one-page problem" from old article.
