Multiple H1 headings

MediumNeeds reviewHeadingsPer-page checkheading_h1_multiple

What this means

The page has more than one H1. HTML5 permits this, but a single H1 gives a clearer, unambiguous topic signal.

How to fix it

Keep one H1 for the page's main topic and demote the rest to H2 or H3.

Fix effort

This check needs review: the change can be drafted for you, but a person has to approve the wording or choose the target before it ships.
