## patch applied

- if there is no 'title' in '.rst' file, FILENAME_METADATA = '(?P\<title\>.*)' doesn't work!
- it works fine with '.md' files --> https://github.com/getpelican/pelican/issues/2107#issuecomment-363388649
- but, it doesn't work with '.rst' files.
- that's because metadata being merged with a default 'title' which is empty if you don't give one in the document!
- so, if 'title' is empty, then do not add the default. that is meaningless.
- look into : patch/pelican_readers.patch
