To future readers, the title used to say "SUSPENDED: iFind – Battery-Free Item Locating Tag". Unfortunately, the title was changed, removing all of the context of its posting. Just another reason the automated title changers need to be reëvaluated.
- mortenjorck 12y agoI don't understand why HN still has a field for manually entering titles if the system is capable of scraping it from the linked site, and does it automatically within a few minutes of posting.
- lazerwalker 12y agoBecause sometimes being able to manually add in editorializing can be valuable. In this specific example, the added "SUSPENDED" that was removed gave context about why the link was interesting.
- nicksergeant 12y agoThere are actual human beings on HN who are tasked with changing submission titles.
- dang 12y agoWe put "Funding Suspended" back. "Funding Suspended" is in fact a subtitle of the OP at present, so there's no problem having it in the HN title. But the submitted title should not have said "SUSPENDED:" in all-caps. We try to keep the HN front page free of clamor.
