Nutshell entries must be brief overviews, with a very high meaning to number of words ratio.
Make sure each word in the nutshell carries significant weight, "make every word tell".
Wikilink to other pages to create a "nut trail" of pages with nutshells.

This template can also be used on other pages, for instance on how-to guides. But it should not be used in articles.
