I just had my first Discourse experience, trying to post a topic entitled “itk::HoughTransform2DCirclesImageFilter::GetCircles(n) patch”

Unfortunately the title were rejected, as Discourse prompted “Title seems unclear, is it a complete sentence?”

I pressed OK, which was the only option Discourse gave me. Still it refused to publish my topic. What could I have done, to make Discourse accept my topic? Eventually a colleague helped me out, as she broke up the ITK class name and added punctuation: “Hough Transform 2D Circles Image Filter GetCircles patch.” Which was eventually accepted by Discourse: [Hough Transform 2D Circles Image Filter GetCircles patch.](https://discourse.itk.org/t/hough-transform-2d-circles-image-filter-getcircles-patch/350)

Needless to say, I preferred the original title. Hope Discourse van become a bit more user friendly before replacing the good old mailing lists.
