In one embodiment, a method includes accessing posts of an online social network, each post being associated with a first entity of the online social network, classifying, based on content and metadata associated with each post, one or more of the posts as being relevant to the first entity, extracting a set of one or more n-grams from the content of the posts classified as being relevant to the first entity, filtering the set of n-grams to remove one or more of the extracted n-grams from the set of n-grams, calculating a quality score for each n-gram in the filtered set of n-grams, generating a snippet-module including one or more of the extracted n-grams from the filtered set of n-grams having quality-scores greater than a threshold quality-score, and sending, to a client system of a first user of the online social network, the snippet-module for display to the user.

Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can determine at least one content item to be categorized, wherein the content item relates to a topic. The topic related to the content item can be determined. A set of categories can be determined based at least in part on the topic. A determination can be made that the content item corresponds to a first category in the set of categories. The content item can be associated with the first category, wherein the content item is included in a page corresponding to the topic within the first category.

Techniques to confirm account registration. In one embodiment, an MSISDN associated with a mobile device is received. It is determined whether to confirm registration of an account with a social networking system based at least in part on the MSISDN. Receipt of the MSISDN may include receipt of an HTTP request. The HTTP request may include an HTTP header with the MSISDN and a phone number associated with the mobile device. The MSISDN and the phone number may be compared. Registration may be confirmed based on a match between the MSISDN and the phone number.

Methods and systems for verification in account registration

An intermediate server can receive a request from a mobile device to authorize a software application, transmit a secure ID included in the request to a social-networking system, receive an access token from the social-networking system indicating that the software application has been authorized, evaluate the access token for validity, and transmit a response to the mobile device indicating the software application is authorized. The secure ID can indicate that a user of the mobile device has been authenticated by the social-networking system. The access token can be valid when the access token and the secure ID both correspond to the user of the mobile device.
