Do your real answers have FAQ markup?
It finds pages with several qualifying question headings and no FAQPage declaration.
What Check Engine measures
Pages already declaring FAQPage are excluded. A remaining page needs at least 3 headings recognised as questions. Heading text and linked destinations are checked. A question that sends readers elsewhere may be navigation. Review the local answer before adding markup. The count does not verify facts or promise a search display feature. For example, 3 accepted question headings can qualify a page that has no FAQPage declaration.
The check reads headings, question links and structured types. It looks for a page's own questions and answers. A complete factual and editorial review still needs a person.
How to read the result
The opportunity finding is low severity. It describes possible markup for existing answers rather than a requirement to manufacture questions or a claim that adding the type will produce a rich result.
Why it matters
Structured declarations should follow the content the reader can actually use. Counting locally answered questions protects that relationship and keeps an index of links from being described as a complete answer page.
How to fix it
Review the qualifying questions and confirm that the page provides their answers. Add matching question-and-answer markup only for that content. Keep the visible wording and declared answers aligned when editing. Do not add filler questions simply to reach the count or promise a search appearance that this test does not measure.

Common questions
How many question headings suggest an FAQ markup opportunity?
At least 3 headings must be recognised as questions. Their answers should already belong to the page before markup is added.
Are pages that already declare FAQPage included in the opportunity check?
No. Declaring FAQPage takes a page out of the sample. Remaining pages are checked for potential declarations.
Can a question linked elsewhere be navigation rather than an FAQ answer?
Yes. An onward question link may be navigation. Confirm that the answer really belongs to this page before adding FAQ markup.
