Usage
This template adds a concise description of an article. Place it near the beginning of the page, normally immediately below {{DISPLAYTITLE:...}} when that template is used.
{{Short description|Christian service performed in the name of Jesus Christ}}
The description should:
- briefly identify the subject;
- normally remain under 160 characters;
- use sentence case;
- not end with a period;
- avoid promotional language;
- not duplicate the article title unnecessarily.
Examples
{{Short description|Service offered to God and others in the name of Jesus Christ}}
{{Short description|Central religious text of Christianity}}
{{Short description|Christian practice of communicating with God}}
The description is hidden in the main article display but remains available in the page markup for skins, extensions, search tools and other automated systems that recognize the shortdescription class.
