Google search console critical issue

[Alvin63]

What is this critical issue about in Google search console for 13 pages?

"Either 'text', 'image' or 'video' should be specified
Items with this issue are invalid. Invalid items are not eligible for Google Search's rich results"

I followed the link to look at the pages mentioned and I can't see anything wrong with them. One started with an image and text not displayed well (ie underneath it/next to rather than above). But the some of the pages just look normal to me.

Jeremy already explained the cause:

These errors just mean those specific posts won't be eligible for rich results (they will still be eligible for regular results). The thread itself and other posts will still be eligible for rich results too.

The right solution is just to set the alternate attributes, and I'm sure we'll do that eventually, but given we've already made rather large improvements to the schema over the last few cycles and this has a relatively small impact to a limited subset of content, it's not a huge priority at the moment.
