Issue #1
- Andrew A.
- I don't agree that on this site, subtitles are well-fit for using them as descriptions. They are often short and not descriptive of the article content. For example:
https://www.wareable.com/apple/apple-airpower-release-date-price-specs-440 "Rest in AirPower"
Is it a good description? I don't think so. That's some play with the content of the title, nothing more. It doesn't add meaning.
The first paragraph is a better choice.
The same here:
https://www.wareable.com/smartwatches/fitbit-ionic-vs-apple-watch-4143 "Which one wins the day?"
https://www.wareable.com/apple/apple-watch-series-4-leaked-6470 "Someone get a wrench"
https://www.wareable.com/samsung/samsung-alice-viceroy-hotel-gear-s3-2018 "Your towels, sir"
While typically they are longer, their appropriateness is still rather doubtful.
Note also that the description my template is using is not technically from the first paragraph—it's from the meta tags. I believe they are quite reliable for that on this site. That's why I chose to use them.

Often, subtitles describe the whole meaning of content than the first paragraph.
The order mentioned in the checklist is like this: "Subtite, lead section or first paragraph".
