Description

Consider the following pages in https://git.github.io/ :

Observe that even though they have a proper title mentioned in the corresponding Markdown files, the titles don't appear in the body of the text. It is only visible in the link and the title of the tab in the browser. Is there a particular reason for this? Or is there no particular reason for this?

Research direction

Compare the corresponding Markdown files with the deployed Hacking-Git and General-Microproject-Information pages, then trace how their titles are rendered. Confirm whether the missing body titles are intentional or identify the site behavior that prevents them from appearing; done means the behavior is explained or both pages display their titles consistently.
