Since people have complained about the article title, we've changed the post to use the subtitle instead.
Can you change the title of this submission to match the title of the post please? Normally people change titles when the original is sensationalised however the opposite is true in this case.
I submitted using the original title. Someone changed it to the subtitle in the article. I don't know why, I think the original title was fine. A tad click-baity, perhaps, but the article actually delivers.
Given that, maybe the submission title should be changed?
I don't see any option to edit the title now. Anyways, I don't see it would change any meaning of the article.
I think you were too trigger happy in changing the title. It's a poor reflection of the link now.
Yeah, a title change on this post would be nice.
No worries. I'd be happy to change the title to something accurate and neutral if you want to suggest better wording.
Thanks. I've changed the title to make it more in line with what the article seems to be saying.
Please change the title of this submission. It misrepresents the content
