Hello,
Some of you may be familiar with sharing links on Facebook.
If i try to share on Facebook an article from Wikipedia in Hebrew or in
Arabic, the Facebook interface offers to add a thumbnail not from the
article, but from the main page of that Wikipedia. The summary text
describing the link is also taken from the main page and not from the
article.
It may have something to do with the non-ASCII title of the article: for
example, the Hebrew article about Haifa [1] has this problem, but the Hebrew
article about Extreme Programming,[2] with an English title, is OK. However,
it does not happen with non-ASCII titles on en.wp; for example "Ça
m'énerve"
is OK.
Whose should fix it: Facebook or Wikipedia? Are there any differences in
definitions in this regard between en, ar and he?
Thanks in advance.
