I'd agree with Aaron here - bare minimum, the first of the two above.
A side note to this, by the way, I've noticed a few new classical
editors just in the past few days who have been going through and
either adding new releases or editing existing releases into the "no
work in the title" format you're suggesting; when I've asked why,
they've said they're using some of the trial-balloon edits like this
one as examples from "classical editors who know how to do it".  Just
wanted to add the note of caution when we do do trial balloon edits
like this; some of the editors who don't participate in the lists and
who don't really know CSG well yet are paying attention to everything
we do, but not the reasons we do it...

While I'm writing here anyhow, I would really like to get things
moving towards resolution / approval on the work list stuff so we can
get back to CSG.  The RFC and such have been out for several weeks now
- is there anyone who would veto at this point; or if we held the work
list RFCs until luks actually has work lists implemented, would there
be anyone now opposed to the part of that RFC that moved the "full
details" CSG to be only for work lists?  (We also still need to
discuss, as like with this trial series of edits, what would then be
"simple classical style" for use on the releases themselves, if the
full CSG is moved away from that purpose...)
