Can Editors See Capsules With "Don't display this capsule" Checked?

   Specifically text capsules. Can I leave a note for an editor in this box? (I've just had an article published on Hubpages. I want to suggest what niche site it ends up on)

      Why don't you just submit it and choose a niche site? Unless you need to wait 14 days. Good question though, something only the staff can reply to. I'd like to know too.
      
      An educated guess tells me they can, because I have had an editor hide some capsules in the past when they made custom images for a few hubs.

         I could do that, but I didn't want to "use up" one of my submissions. I don't have any Hubpages hubs to submit, so I guess that's not an issue. I want to see whether they'll rename one of the sub-topics on Owlcation though, so I've posted a forum suggestion about this.

            Yup, I saw that.

            Hi eugbug, if you want to tell me the title and which site you'd like it to be in, I can pass your request on to the correct editor.

               Thanks Samantha. I was hoping the Electrical Engineering sub-topic on Owlcation could be re-named to Electrical & Electronic Engineering because they are twin disciplines and it could be placed there. Maybe there's an issue with this as regards URLs? (just like the way we can't change our usernames). Alternatively could an Electronic Engineering sub-topic be added? (but if this is done, what about all the other engineering disciplines?). The problem is that there's no electronics topic on any of the niche sites.
               The title is "How to Solder Electronic Components and Wires".

                  I passed on your suggestion, but we don't often do this. So in regards to the categories we have now, where do you want the article to go?

                     I guess "Electrical Engineering" on Owlcation. It'll be found from a search engine, so it probably doesn't make much difference. For anyone browsing the site though, it would be useful to have an electronics topic. There is a consumer electronics section on Turbofuture, but it's more for products, rather than electronics per se.

                        I agree, that would be useful. It does mess with the URL though, which is why we don't do it often.
