First sentence content

[ಬದಲಾಯಿಸಿ]

The article should begin with a short declarative sentence, answering two questions for the nonspecialist reader: "What (or who) is the subject?" and "Why is this subject notable?"[೧]

  • If possible, the page title should be the subject of the first sentence:[೨] However, if the article title is merely descriptive—such as Electrical characteristics of a dynamic loudspeaker—the title does not need to appear verbatim in the main text. Similarly, where an article title is of the type "List of ...", a clearer and more informative introduction to the list is better than verbatim repetition of the title.
  • When the page title is used as the subject of the first sentence, it may appear in a slightly different form, and it may include variations.[೩] Similarly, if the title has a parenthetical disambiguator, the disambiguator should be omitted in the text.[೪]
  • If its subject is amenable to definition, then the first sentence should give a concise definition: where possible, one that puts the article in context for the nonspecialist. Similarly, if the subject is a term of art, provide the context as early as possible.[೫]
  • If the article is about a fictional character or place, make sure to say so.[೬]
  1. ↑ For example:

    Amalie Emmy Noether [ˈnøːtɐ] (23 March 1882 – 14 April 1935) was a German mathematician known for her groundbreaking contributions to abstract algebra and her contributions to theoretical physics.

    This example not only tells the reader that the subject was a mathematician, it also indicates her field of expertise and work she did outside of it. The years of her birth and death provide time context. The reader who goes no further in this article already knows when she lived, what work she did, and why she is notable. (Wikipedia:Manual of Style (biographies) has more on the specific format for biography articles.)

  2. ↑ For example:

    This Manual of Style is a style guide containing ...

    not

    This style guide, known as the Manual of Style, contains ...
  3. ↑ For example, in the article "United Kingdom":

    The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, commonly known as the United Kingdom, the UK, or Britain, is a sovereign island country located off the northwestern coast of continental Europe.
  4. ↑ Thus, the article Egg (food) should start like this:

    An egg is an ovum produced by ...

    Not like this:

    An egg (food) is an ovum produced by ...
  5. ↑ For example, instead of:

    A trusted third party is an entity that facilitates interactions between two parties who both trust the third party.

    write:

    In cryptography, a trusted third party is an entity that facilitates interactions between two parties who both trust the third party.
  6. ↑ For example:

    Homer Simpson is a fictional character in The Simpsons.
