New Sentence Template

I created a fact type called Newspaper and I created this sentence template:
[person] appeared in the <[description]> newspaper on <[date]>.

The newspaper fact type has a date, place, and description field, and in the description field I placed the title of the newspaper. The above template works for person and place, but for some reason, the description field will not appear in the sentence as I’d like. It appears this way:

“John Wesley Holt appeared in the [description] on 8 Nov 1901.”

What am I doing wrong?

Have to doublecheck it might be [Desc] not [description]

Change <[description]> to <[Desc]>

You were correct about Desc instead of description. Now the sentence prints perfectly. Thanks so much!
