Use of "alleged", "supposed", etc. in article titles

Do we want to have titles like alleged harm to victims of child abuse from the viewing of the resulting child pornography? I haven't seen a convention like that anywhere else in the wikisphere. Lysander (talk) 21:12, 16 May 2015 (UTC)

It's likely not the best practice. However, I am very tired of making helpful hints and advice by saying, "this is an area you could work to improve on..." and getting met with nothing but hostility. --Etenne (talk) 11:59, 17 May 2015 (UTC)
