If you get a message like this:

Code: Select all

The name "summary" specified by the "name" attribute is not a recognized metadata name.
for a meta tag like this:

Code: Select all

<meta name="summary" content="this is summary text">
Then these links may be useful: It is recommended that you use recognized metadata names. If the metadata name has no known use then consider removing the tag entirely to remove unnecessary page weight and bloat.
