#Give new users better advice on how to write question titles.

Give new users better advice on how to write question titles.

There are a lot of terrible question titles out there - and I'm not just talking about ones along the lines of "Plz send me teh codez for my C++ porgam". Many ignore the advice given in How do I write a good title?, and are

  • Not specific enough
  • Grammatically incorrect to the extreme
  • Not specific at all
  • Not concise enough
  • Not specific in the slightest
  • Actually part of the body, rather than a succinct summary
  • Not specific

This is a problem on a lot of Stack Exchange sites, from what I've seen, and I think that helping new users could solve it. I propose linking to the above question somewhere near the input box for the question title in the first few questions from a new user, which can hopefully make titles, at the least, a bit better.
