Was it a considered design decision in 2022 that the message body field be called "Description", or is this a placeholder? Something like Enter your message here would seem much clearer, although I don't know what other contexts this system string might be used in.

I'm wondering how much of the talk page confusion that happens on enwiki (eg. people posting what seem like web search terms, or trying to enter text-to-image prompts at Talk:Midjourney) is new users not realising what the context of their entered text will be, when the website asks them for a "subject" and a "description".
