 * Pagespeed Insights is reporting the following accessibility issue:
   “List items[
   li] are not contained within [ul], [ol] or [menu] parent elements. Screen readers
   require list items [li] to be contained within a parent [ul], [ol] or [menu] 
   to be announced properly.”This relates to the main menu dropdown elements. Please
   provide a fix for this.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Faccessibility-main-menu-dropdown-list-items%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
