About descriptions
Title descriptions summarize an article to help readers understand the subject at a glance.

Tips for creating descriptions
Descriptions should ideally fit on one line, and there are between two to twelve words long. They are not capitalized unless the first word is a proper noun. For example:


 * painting by Leonardo da Vinci title description for an article about the Mona Lisa
 * Earth’s highest mountain title description for an article about Mount Everest
