Description
Hi,
I think for the accesibility, need to add title or aria-label value to the wp_list_categories() with the category name.

The category name is already the visible text for each link, which is more accessible than title or aria-label attributes.

Yes, but some checker think it's bug. PageInsight or etc. checker.
When that's not problem for accesibility close that ticket.

Can you provide details of the accessibility checking errors you're getting? It may be specific to a particular usage case.

Hi,
When i'm use the wp_list_categories(), in the ul/li list items content is:
<li class="cat-item cat-item-ID"><a href="catslug">catname</a> </li>
And the better is:
<li class="cat-item cat-item-ID"><a arial-label="catname" href="catslug">catname</a> </li>

OK. That would not be an improvement; the aria-label in that example is a duplicate of the existing accessible name, and is unnecessary.
An aria-label should only be used if there is no visible accessible name present, and that doesn't apply in this case.
I'm going to close this as invalid; feel free to reopen if you wish to have further discussion.
