Short Summaries Getting Shorter?
I just looked through the "Recently Added Content" section, and it appears that almost all the articles on there have short summaries of one sentence (two sentences, max). The submission form still says to make your short summary at least three sentences, but I was wondering if all of you are still doing that?

HI,
It looks like the system is coughing up some oldies and putting them on the "latest content added" page. Newer content should include three sentences for the short summaries.
Happy writing,
WG

Yeah, looks like a glitch. There was an update recently. I would guess that fixing it would be high priority for them, so I'd sit tight and wait. Threw me off too.

I found one that intrigued me becasue the word count was 2. I took a look and saw part of a longer article in which the whole of the first para was in the first person. If the new content is actually old stuff, that would explain it.
