I’ve noticed that when clipping using the “formatted note (clutter free)” mode, DT fairly consistently misses the byline of many articles. Because this is a pattern, is there a way to update the algorithm in future releases to avoid this issue? OK, this is a rhetorical question because I’ve been told DT folks can’t discuss what’s in a future release 😉

Anyhow, an example of a page where the byline is clipped: [https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/05/opinion/whites-anti-blackness-protests.html?referringSource=articleShare&fbclid=IwAR32u2vhJVZJn0gDat5avowz2RnqKAp3Gagu8vmDelKuXftD-Rqu3QOAWgQ](https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/05/opinion/whites-anti-blackness-protests.html?referringSource=articleShare&fbclid=IwAR32u2vhJVZJn0gDat5avowz2RnqKAp3Gagu8vmDelKuXftD-Rqu3QOAWgQ)

Gone missing would be “By Chad Sanders” after clipping.

And this often occurs with many news and article sites I read. Let me know if you need more examples.

This depends on the construction of the site but perhaps in the future.

Ok, good to know!
