I posted a comment abpout this at Requiring Titles?, but no one ever commented on it.
As for reading such nodes, if it is a top-level node, you can click on "(n) replies" in the section page (For example, Perl Monks Discussion). If it isn't a top-level node, you can read it by clicking on a parent node and reading it there. | [reply] |
I think that both titles and the body should be checked to make sure they contain information. It shouldn't be too dificult to check the input before accepting a form. | [reply] |
It is a pain when this happens, though it seems that nodes
that have blank titles but contain content are given titles
by the moderators (eg More IPC::Open2 stuff was originally
untitled). If you want to read these nodes, your best bet
is to find out the node ID (by reading the page source
from which they are linked to...), and typing the URL
directly into your browser (http://perlmonks.org/index.pl?node_id=whatever&,
replacing whatever with your node ID)

Just today, I posted a blank node.
This was not on purpose. I was voting for
a post, but in a flash of d'oh I pressed on
the "new" button, effectively submitting
an empty post.
In editors requests, I asked for the possibility
of denying posts if they're empty, I hope vroom will do so.
