Line 165: I think this module will follow redirects, which may not always be desirable. For example <code><nowiki>{{#invoke:GetShortDescription\|main\|name=Liam Ashley\|stringify=true}}</nowiki></code> gives "{{#invoke:GetShortDescription\|main\|name=Liam Ashley\|stringify=true}}" which is the short description of [[Murder of Liam Ashley]], but I would prefer it take the Wikidata label from {{Q\|Q129493533}} which is "murder victim" — Martin <small>([[User:MSGJ\|MSGJ]] · [[User talk:MSGJ\|talk]])</small> 14:17, 21 August 2024 (UTC) :Retrieving Wikidata short descriptions is generally not permitted, per [[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals)/Archive_145#RfC:_Populating_article_descriptions_magic_word\|this RFC]]. – [[User:Jonesey95\|Jonesey95]] ([[User talk:Jonesey95\|talk]]) 20:08, 9 July 2025 (UTC) == Can this module be modified to retrieve infobox-generated short descriptions? ==
