MessageHmmm. How about:

[CORE] All documents, including individual frames in a frameset, should have a TITLE element that labels the document.
example: <TITLE>Reservoir Dogs</TITLE>

[EXTENDED] The title should be unique, describe the document and summarize the document.
example: <TITLE>Reservoir Dogs - Screenplay for a film about a violent botched heist</TITLE>

I'm thinking about accessibility checking tools - For core compliance, will we be required to ask the author if each title is unique, summarizes and describes the document?

  Adaptation for title checklist item:

  Provide each page with a unique TITLE element that describes, labels and summarizes the document



  Add to the text below: Users use the Title to orientate themselves with in a site, between open widows, and identify each page. In some cases the Title can provide an adequate summary of the page.


  example
  <title>myshop - special offers in laptops</title>

  Adaptation for title check doctype item:
