- gnabgib 1y agoPerhaps, but HN guidelines request the original title without editorialising. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
- altairprime 1y agoIncorrect. > please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait; don't editorialize The author’s title is significantly lower signal than the first sentence of their post. When the original title is defective in such a manner, the site accepts alternate titles, with preference given towards those that use the words of the post linked to compose a more informative title. The submitter does so here: “Microsoft, anyone home?” could be generically applied to hundreds of different Microsoft issues over time; the selected quote is much more precise. Plus informative, minus rhetoric is an excellent generalization of what makes a good HN title edit.
- minebreaker 1y agoI hope the guideline is clearer. "Unless it is misleading or linkbait; don't editorialize." is too ambiguous.
