Bug summary

Some, but not all, confirmation messages are announced by screen readers.

Specifics

Confirmation message after moving a page is not presented to screen reader users. Should be put in an aria-live area so that screen readers announce them even if user has focus somewhere else on the screen. The message is in a div with class="alert", which I presume is what brings the nice green color. An aria-live attribute (or equivalent) could be added alongside with the class attribute, or on the parent div, if this container element is always present.

alert green

Steps to reproduce

Move a page while using a screen reader. Listen for the confirmation. You will hear none, unless you listen through all positions on the page where you suspect it may be present.

Expected result / actual result

The green confirmation should be announced without any need to search for it.
