Description

**Describe the content issue**:
Images listed below do not have descriptive/informative alt text. For markdown the alt text is located between the square brackets, `![alt text](...)`.

The list below isn't exhaustive since I found these images based on the word count for the alt text, but it should be a good starting point to make our alt text better for people who use screen readers.

Some resources to help write alt text:
