§15. Keyword as Title

What would be the word
That would be the key
to find back your text?

You have it? Good.
Now, make it your title.

§27. Sections and Paragraphs

Reading Bencivenga's 1976 paper on free logic and set theory, I skipped all the formal sections and went to read what was announced in the introduction. When I did not understood the notation, I came back to where it was introduced. With more titles and subsections, I would have had to put more effort to read that paper.

Here were the sections:

- No title nor number for the introduction
- 1. The Language
- 2. The Formal System
- 3. Consistency
- 4. Comparison with Other Systems

For fifteen pages or so, that should be enough. If more sectioning is needed, paragraph titles would suffice. Sections and paragraphs are enough for most projects.

Title as Proposition

A working title could express a proposition of a text. The proposition need not be complete, but to show the main main subject, the main predicated idea and the main relationship between the subject and the predicate. The text would then describe, explain or justify that proposition. Everything that does not help elucidate the title should be easily identified and rejected.
