I must be some new rejection trend since they made article about it. When I got this rejection it was clear that reviewer was taking IPTC caption as a title.

I think SS messed up with IPTC meta data importer :-) I do not think somebody would deliberately put this info in title. It a software bug.

There's plenty of pics with that title - by default Olympus cameras have that placed in caption - I'm sure that some of mine still have it - sometimes you miss the title when going through big batches of images.

Shutterstock is the only site that treats the caption as a title, and ignores the title. The caption is a long description, so sometimes they are mad about it being too long. They should just treat the title as title like it's done on all other sites. A caption is a long multiline text field, and a title is a one line field where people put the essentials, mostly under 30 symbols.

123rf is another agency that treats descriptions as titles. But I almost never write more than 7-8 words in description field, so I never had problems with that.

And how about this one:

I was looking at Cora Reed's website yesterday and I noticed a lot of her pictures had Olympus Digital Camera as titles (showed on mouseover with firefox), so maybe it's something weird that Olympus does.

Yeah, I am trying to correct that issue in lightroom with presets.  It's annoying.
