The instructions say to put it around "the h2 and articles", which it appears you have done correctly. :+1:

But somehow in the process, an extra <aside> got wrapped around the header., the start tag for the real <aside> seems to have been removed, and there's a stray incomplete tag "</article." right before the footer.

Fix these issues and you should pass the challenge.
