Comment (by juliemoynat):
I think that adding the text "Parent Page: [Name of the page]" next to the
link is a good alternative to have the name of the parent page.
But, the {{{aria-label}}} is still required because:
1. It is already adding the information that the link is an edit link (the
"(Edit)" at the end).
2. We still need to add an alternative to the long dash in the link name.
So, with your proposal, I recommend to just add the text "Subpage" before
the page name in the {{{aria-label}}}:
{{{<a class="row-title" href="https://example.org/wp-
admin/post.php?post=554&action=edit" aria-label="Subpage “My beautiful
subpage” (Edit)">— My beautiful subpage</a>}}}
