Welcome to the Don Quijote club of editors.

It is indeed an everlasting fight and M.A. already covered most of the history of it. Keeping an eye out on question titles is one of the most important things on the site, since they show up in all search engines first. One reason why we discourage the use of MathJax^‡ in question titles (for reasons {you know}). So to keep it plain and simple:
Death to the buzzwords!
To all of them.

And now for the original purpose of this addendum:
Make the edits substantial and please fill out the edit summary even when you obtained the editing privilege.^♥ You might wonder why... well, even if you did not ask, here it comes any way:

1. I/ We/ They really do not need to know if you

• edited the title
• edited the tags
• removed/ added 23.5 characters in body

I/ We/ They can see that - it is fairly obvious. What I/ we/ they cannot see is the reason why you did that. 2. With the summary you give feedback to the OP. This is especially important if you are editing a post of a new user. Make them understand what you are doing and how they can improve their posts. 3. Some posts become real edit messes over time and it is hard to follow, why what was done when. One on the most recent examples, can be found here. If it's really necessary to follow through the edit history, these summaries can safe a lot of time. 4. It makes you check again, what you have done and if there could be anything more to clean up. This is just a nice side effect though.

Thank you for your kind consideration.
Now editing should not be a chore, it still should be fun and every little thing helps grow the site into a nice place. So on behalf of everyone, thank you very much.

Footnotes:
^‡ It's not $\LaTeX$ you know.
^♥ I often do not confer to my own standards and you might find a lot of my edits have the standard summary - I understand when you just don't have the time any more and sometimes the edit is just self explanatory. When you reached 10 k you can edit tags inline, hence the standard "edited tags" will be given then. This is of course very helpful for quick retags.
