How do I make it NOT display the short description at the top of the article?

I think setting $wgShortDescriptionEnableTagline to false would do it, but I’m not 100% what a “tagline” is so I’m not sure. I am not a steward on our wiki so I will have to ask someone else to do it, and I don’t want to waste their time.

Yes, that would do it.

Summary by Xaosflux

The shortdesc parser function used on some WMF projects is not from this extension.

@Alistair3149: does GETSHORTDESC work? It doesn't seem to be an available hook even when SHORTDESC is?

@Alistair3149 Hmm, are projects like testwiki and enwiki that allow for the 'shortdesc' parser magic word not really using this entire extension - and that's why getshortdesc doesn't work?

They are not using this extension. On WMF wikis the functionality is provided by Wikibase
