[Sample content for template preview — replace before launch.] This is the opening paragraph of the article body. Body copy is set at 65–75 characters per line, with generous leading, and paragraphs are separated by space rather than indentation, per the article-page specification.
A second paragraph follows, giving the reader room to see how consecutive paragraphs sit against each other at the specified line length and leading.
Pull quotes are set in the display face and break the column — used sparingly, exactly like this one.
A subheading, used to break up anything over 600 words
Text continues under the subheading. Structured data (NewsArticle schema) and Open Graph tags are attached to this page so it previews correctly when shared to WhatsApp or Telegram — the highest-leverage detail for messaging-app distribution.
