It's not a summary, just cutting out the commentary.

If only there was a word for taking a long article and shortening it, while preserving the main points.
"Here is chapter 2, it's the only chapter you need" is not a summary of a book.

A summary is when you pull the relevant points out of the entire document.

Especially when the part quoted here was a quote inside the original article. The entire native text of the article was discarded.
