Alternates that are noindex

IssueMedium priority

Pages with an alternate that asks not to be indexed.

Why it matters

A page that is not indexed cannot be shown in any language, so the declaration does nothing.

How to fix it

Remove noindex from the alternate, or remove it from the set.

Skitter runs this check on every crawl, and lists each page it finds with the evidence: the header, the tag or the link that gave it away.
