### Problem
Some content is read twice by the screenreader because it is multiple times in the source code. This affects for example the work package table header or the form to create/edit a work package. Because of the redundant content blind user cannot perceive the page efficiently.
### Recommendation
- The label of form fields should be informative and short. Instead of ‘Enter a value for \[name of the field\] focus’ there should only be the name.
- Redundant content should be avoided. Therefore elements that lead to a redundant statement can be hidden with \`aria-hidden = true\`. For interactive elements one should take care to hide not the element itself but the parent.
