Currently a publisher can announce a new issue without providing a title for it, only the page name. Is this a bug or a feature?
So I think I got two notifications about the same newsletter? (One is read and is at bottom of screenshot.)
Looking at https://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newsletter:Testing_McTestFace what happened was that the publisher announed two issues one after the other, without specifying any title for each issue.
I think it wasnt submission without a title, but submission without a summary - as - it throws up an errror whenever the title box is not set. Its a question if we want to make the Summary optional or mandatory.
I don't think it should be mandatory. There can be times where no summary is not needed.
A newsletter announcement consists of two fields only: a URL and a summary. I don't think it is too much to ask both?
Also, we need to think about the users. Posting a link (that won't be visible in the notification) without a summary means that users are forced to click without knowing whether the link will be interesting or not.
