Description

Example page: https://github.com/bluedotimpact/bluedot/issues/965

Expected: The title, comments and key metadata e.g. labels are extracted

Actual: only the first comment contents is extracted. This misses the issue title, labels, activity or further comments.

Example page output
<div id="readability-page-1" class="page">
    <div data-testid="markdown-body" data-team-hovercards-enabled="true" data-turbolinks="false" id="issue-body-viewer">
        <p dir="auto"> The old course hub is hosted at: </p>
        <p dir="auto">
            <a href="https://course.bluedot.org/" rel="nofollow">https://course.bluedot.org/</a>
        </p>
        <p dir="auto"> We should set up redirects with nginx that direct people to all the right places (e.g. <code>https://course.bluedot.org/home/alignment</code> -&gt; <code>https://bluedot.org/courses/alignment</code>, and others) </p>
    </div>
