Description

Am trying to understand why it is ignoring the text before the table. I get that the table itself might be removed for readability, and also the table of contents. But the other sections of text I do not understand.

Have been trying a few changes to the markup but nothing seems to make a difference.

In theory the text has paragraph tags and is (I think) of sufficient length - there were no links etc. So not sure why it is being cut out.

Research direction

Open the reported page at https://www.apc.org/en/project/member-engagement-and-travel-fund and reproduce reader mode output. Compare the retained content with the normal paragraphs before the table, then trace how those paragraphs are classified. Done means the relevant text is retained while the table and table of contents may still be excluded.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
