Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | A lot of polite wiki authors are uncomfortable with outright deleting fragments, which result in a sentence full of exceptions and Weasel Words. Meanwhile, the Hedge Trimmer is a merciless subspecies of Lumper, editing things down to be as concise as possible like a sheep goes at grass. While how long an article is usually depends either on how much one writer can ramble or how long a good explanation needs to be, the Hedge Trimmer figures an article should be as long as its assumed effect or importance. Too Long, Didn't Read is used unironically, and some articles are thought not to dignify the use of the scrollbar. Discussion pages especially are glossed over like Martian instruction manuals. |
