Bug#897080: Please detect long descriptions starting with lowercase to catch short descriptions continuing into long
tags 897080 + moreinfo
thanks
Hi Josh,
> Description: words words words. Words words
> words words words. Words words words.
But would this not already be caught by:
Tag: description-synopsis-might-not-be-phrased-properly
Severity: minor
Certainty: possible
Info: The package synopsis (also known as the "short" description, ie. the
first line in the package's "Description:" field) either ends with a full
stop "." character or starts another sentence.
.
This is not necessary as the synopsis does not need to be a full
sentence. It is recommended that a single descriptive phrase is used
instead.
.
Note also that the synopsis is not part of the rest of the "long"
Description: field.
If not, having a good corpus of "good" and "bad" examples would be the next
step here :)
Best wishes,
