Article lead section[edit]

Biography articles usually have a lead section (located before the first section title). Per MOS:LEAD section should be a summary of article contents and a max of 4 paragraphs. Regards, — JoeHebda • (talk) 20:56, 1 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Joe raised this on my talk page. I responded:

It has an introductory paragraph ("lead"). Since it is a biographical article, subsuming all the text under a heading with that title does not help the reader identify the material or navigate the article. Since it is a short article and there is nothing to divide, there is no need for headings yet. Paragraph breaks suffice for short articles. Once expanded sufficiently, then section headings are useful to help the reader navigate and find the material they are looking for. As it stands, in this article a bio heading serves no purpose.

The article is currently about 340 words. MOSLEAD says "Where the article is a stub and has no section headings, a lead may not be necessary... Once an article has been sufficiently expanded, generally to around 400 or 500 words, editors should consider introducing section headings." This article should not, however, be tagged as a stub, since it has been assessed as start-class by four Wikiprojects. Srnec (talk) 21:30, 1 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
