Description
Editable fields in the tables are missing a label for users using assisting technologies like screen readers.
Example: the dropdown in the Type column and date selection field in the Release Date column.

The columns have a title on top, but this is not associated with the individual field elements.
Axe has flagged this as an accessibility issue related to the select-name rule:

This seems to be a failure of WCAG SC 4.1.2 Name, Role, Value:
