Short titles
The title of a Codidact question has a minimum length of 15 characters. For a question this is generally fine, as the title will be a summary of the question in the form of a single sentence. However, for a Code Golf challenge, the title is not necessarily a question, or a sentence. If I have a good title that says everything it needs to but is shorter than 15 characters, I have to pad it out with extra wording that may make it a worse title. This enforces clutter. Would it be useful to be able to adjust this minimum length for Code Golf Codidact? Would this be best as a category level setting, so that for example the Challenges and Sandbox categories could have a shorter minimum length, while the Q&A category could keep the standard minimum length of 15 characters? ## Examples near the current limit Many existing challenges are at or near the 15 character minimum title length. Here are a few: - [Fibonascii Squares](https://codegolf.codidact.com/posts/291759) (18 characters) - [Looping counter](https://codegolf.codidact.com/posts/286280) (exactly 15 characters) - ["Hello, World!" ](https://codegolf.codidact.com/posts/279147) (brought up to 15 characters by the addition of double quotes) - [Hex detector](https://codegolf.codidact.com/posts/291889) (13 characters - below the current limit and only possible through trickery)
