Could you cite the guideline? I couldn't find it; I thought the idea is to use the original title where possible.

The citation (https://books.google.com/books?id=9zu0BQAAQBAJ&pg=PA33&lpg=P... ) doesn't support the claim either. It sounds more like the story was: While waiting for his wife to arrive at their wedding ceremony, he stepped away and passed the time by working on a problem.
The title I objected to was "A man who forgot about his own wedding". This title was actually edited to make it more clickbaity before it was later edited to be less clickbaity.
Not every article title has to be "A 500 word blog post on Oscar Zariski, covering years 1899-1960, published May 26th 3PM EST, by Boogie Math"
