Your community's name and description live in one place: Community, then Welcome. That page is what a new member sees when they arrive.

Open Community, then Welcome
Open Community in the left menu. Welcome is nine rows down, which is why most people don't find it. It's what somebody sees when they arrive, before they've joined.
Community, then Welcome. It sits below Games in that column.

The top box is the name members see. The box under it is your welcome message, and it's also what your AI draws on when it writes in your voice later.
The name on top. Underneath, what it is about.

Say what's wrong in one sentence — make it warmer, or say it's for women over fifty — then press Refine. Press Speak to say it aloud instead of typing.
Say what you want different, or speak it. Then press Refine.
Press Save changes, and read it back
Press Save changes to make it live. Beside the boxes is a preview, with a button to open the live page. Start over, at the foot, redoes the guided setup.
Nothing is live until you press Save changes.
