> If the original title begins with a number or number + gratuitous adjective, we'd appreciate it if you'd crop it. E.g. translate "10 Ways To Do X" to "How To Do X," and "14 Amazing Ys" to "Ys." Exception: when the number is meaningful, e.g. "The 5 Platonic Solids."
Still strange. Why should an admin change the submission of a random user if it doesn't breach any of HN's rules?
Maybe because it's not a random submission by a random user?
Guess I must be wrong but would love to hear what that admin who did the change has to say.
