Description:

Paragraph elements (<p>) are being misused for creating spacing on the participation page instead of using CSS. This is semantically incorrect and can confuse assistive technologies.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Navigate to the participation page (e.g. https://pol.is/4cvkai2ctw)
  2. Inspect the HTML source code.

Expected Behavior:

Use CSS for spacing; do not use <p> elements for this purpose.

Actual Behavior:

<p> elements are misused for spacing.

Component/Area: Participation page

Source: Other

Affected Elements: p
