Talk:Investigators blame pilot error for deadly jet crash near Boston

misleading headline
editprotected

Headline "in Boston" inaccurate and misleading. Should say "near Boston" or "in Bedford MA."


 * Best to wait until the article is archived before fixing this, since renaming a published article can create duplicate entries in some feeds. --Pi zero (talk) 13:34, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
 * The sources describe Bedford as a suburb of Boston, which if true makes it an outer segment of Boston. BRS  (Talk)   (Contribs) 14:24, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
 * As en.wp correctly notes (atm), Bedford "is within the Greater Boston area, [...] north-west of the city of Boston." For a local, Bedford isn't "in" Boston, which is why I changed "in" to "near" in the body (but overlooked it in the headline).  --Pi zero (talk) 14:54, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Seems to me, btw, this doesn't rise to the level of correction; it's not even about the location of a current event but about one from over a year ago, it's unobtrusively at the end of the headline, and it's more precisely stated in the lede. 'Twould make sense to me to treat it as a minor clarification of wording.  --Pi zero (talk) 15:42, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Ah, the old local-knowledge-to-show-sources-up technique. Would a displaytitle be a valid fix? BRS  (Talk)   (Contribs) 16:54, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Afaik, displaytitle is limited to variants that would still resolve to the current title; it could, say, put part of a title in italics, but couldn't change a word. --Pi zero (talk) 17:14, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
