Research direction

Open docs/base-chain/quickstart/connecting-to-base.mdx and compare the Base Sepolia MetaMask table with the Base Mainnet table. Update the Sepolia header and description-row treatment according to one of the stated consistency options, then check the rendered connecting-to-base page to confirm the table is consistent.

File: docs/base-chain/quickstart/connecting-to-base.mdx

Description

In the MetaMask manual setup table for Base Sepolia, the first column header reads Name but the first cell value reads Sepolia — which is inconsistent with the equivalent table for Base Mainnet, where the first row is a Description field.

Current (Base Sepolia table):

Name Sepolia
Network Name Base Sepolia
RPC Endpoint https://sepolia.base.org
... ...

Base Mainnet table for comparison:

Name Value
Network Name Base Mainnet
Description The public mainnet for Base.
... ...

Expected behavior

The Base Sepolia table should either:

  • Add a missing Description row (e.g. A public testnet for Base.) to match the Mainnet table, and fix the header to Name | Value, or
  • Remove the inconsistent Name | Sepolia row entirely.

Suggested fix

Replace the first row of the Base Sepolia MetaMask table:

| Name | Value |

And add a Description row:

| Description | A public testnet for Base. |
