You need to wrap the <h2> and <article> tags inside a <main> tag, like this:

<main>
  <h2>The Main Articles</h2>
  <article>
    <h3>My Favorite HTML Courses</h3> 
    <p>Fusce semper id ipsum sed scelerisque. Etiam nec elementum massa. Pellentesque tristique ex ac ipsum hendrerit, eget <a href="#">feugiat ante faucibus</a>.</p>
  </article>
  <article>
    <h3>10 Handy CSS Features</h3> 
    <p>Pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus et netus et malesuada fames ac turpis egestas. Vestibulum ante ipsum primis in faucibus orci luctus et <a href="#">ultrices posuere</a>.</p>
  </article>
</main>

Currently, all you've done is wrap the <h2> element inside its own <section>. I hope this helps, dude!

You need to replace the <section> tags with <main> and make sure you're wrapping around the <article> tags as well as the <h2> heading.

I'm having this same problem except I did use the right <main></main> tags in the right places as displayed in this post and I still can't pass the challenge?

i solved this by removing the first pair of <aside> tags, so <main> can be added.

Thanks! That worked for me :)
