Problem/Motivation

Create a short description (200 characters or less) that will be easily understood by the Project Browser target audience of site builders and those new to Drupal. The short description should answer the question - "what does this module do in a non-technical way".

https://www.drupal.org/project/linkit

For module maintainers = the short description should be added to the Summary field off the Body on the project page. The short description
will be displayed on the cards in the Project Browser grid and list views.

Proposed Resolution

The LinkIt module allows a content editor to insert links to nodes, users, taxonomy terms, files, or comments into a rich-text field. The module uses an autocomplete-enabled search to find entities with canonical URLs that can be added to the field. This allows the link added in the field to retain the destination even if the URL changes.

The proposed resolution is 339 characters, 139 characters too long. I propose instead something shorter such as:

Linkit provides an autocomplete interface for internal and external linking in rich-text editors, enabling sustainable canonical linking via a user-friendly UI.

Hi,

I would like to suggest a description too:

The Linkit module in Drupal allows content editors to easily insert links by providing a user-friendly interface with autocomplete suggestions for internal and external URLs.

or something as:

The Linkit module in Drupal allows users to easily create and insert links within content by providing an autocomplete search for internal and external URLs.

or:

The Linkit module in Drupal allows users to easily insert links by searching and selecting content from within the editor, making it faster and more convenient to create links on websites.

Thanks
