What it checks
<marquee> and <blink> elements.
Why it matters
Moving or blinking text cannot be paused (WCAG 2.2.2) and is hard to read for people with attention or vision difficulties.
Recommended fix
Replace it with static text, or a carousel with a pause button.
How to verify
Confirm no text moves or blinks without a pause control.

Issue A11Y-015: Moving text with <marquee> or <blink>
Site: https://your-app.example
First confirm the issue in the code or live config. If it is not present, say so and change nothing.
Task: Replace the <marquee>/<blink> elements in the evidence with static text (or an accessible ticker that has a pause control and respects prefers-reduced-motion).
Constraints: make the smallest change that fixes this, keep the current design and behaviour, never paste secret values into code or chat, and tell me which files you changed.
Done when: Confirm no text moves or blinks without a pause control.
