# Author tooling is shown to every reader

Open · low severity · failure · newsroom.sgit.ai

## What we saw

Every article ends with "Posting this article on LinkedIn?" and the cover image's filename.

## Why it matters

A tool for the author, printed on every reader's copy.

## The fix

Move it to an admin view, or behind an author flag.
