Although not a great way to promote the UX of the theme it does meet the requirements of the guidelines.<br><br>This then becomes a "design by choice" issue of the Theme author; you might suggest a better phrase or even a completely different method but it does not indicate a theme to be "not-approved" based on this alone.<br>

I'm reviewing a theme and the theme author has decided to show 'Enter a Title for this Post' if the user decides not to enter a title on a post. While it does fulfill the requirement to provide a links to the single view of the post I'm not sure that this is really the proper way to do it. Opinions?<br clear="all">
