I've seen a five-point rating scale for acceptability of strings (and I'm not even sure it included punctuation). Doubtless different style guides have different recommendations, even when it comes to punctuation (not just the notorious debates on capitalisation!) in titles. If you're expected to adhere to a particular style guide, check with it / its authors. If not, aim for unambiguity before ease of reading before prettiness (but if this leads to outlandishness, start again). | |

| Feb 16, 2015 at 8:30 | comment | added | stefanbschneider | Thanks, that test is helpful! Adding "and" and reversing the order is no problem in this case. I personally don't like punctuation in titles too much. Is it acceptable to not use a comma in a title even if they are coordinate adjectives? | |
