Usage
[edit]ArticleMetaDescription automatically takes the first paragraph of the article and puts it into the <meta description="..." />
tag inside the page header section. All templates (infoboxes, tables etc.) are ignored by default.
It's possible to set predefined description for the wiki's main page (the name of which is specified in MediaWiki:Mainpage
) by putting desired text into the MediaWiki:Description
message.
