@Jeremy, for the short description, which presumably is the most tedious bit, it could be more flexible like so:
"Descriptions of less than 10 words will appear directly. Longer descriptions will automatically be presented inside RevealWidgtes. You can have both a longer and shorter descriptions, and people are encouraged to contribute either or both if either is missing in existing link contributions." BTW, I don't yet see any example where multiple people contribute the same link. But if there is one, I'm guessing (hoping) that their descriptions will all appear just below one another, for a quick overview. <:-) On Wednesday, March 24, 2021 at 8:50:20 AM UTC+1 Mat wrote: > Mark - I appreciate the work you've done with this, and so will everyone > who uses it in the future! > > At this early stage I think it is better to pour in as much as possible > (...altho the word "pour" doesn't at all reflect the effort it clearly > takes) and that things are tweaked at a later stage.
