I felt I'd mess it up by sending this to i18n through NNTP and design through e-mail... Let's see if sending to both by NNTP will fix that.

That's almost certainly not possible in every language. It could work as a suggestion, though ("If possible...").
Jared said that it doesn't even have to be treated as a sentence, can be something like "Editing: [article name]".
However, it might be better to wrap the title (language aside, it could provide better usability for some scenarios, e.g. if you lock your phone when editing, then come back to it and want to see what page you're on).
I'm not sure if I understand the example use case. Also, this solution has all sorts of other problems. Let's say we try to do it in PHP, we don't even know the browser window width. Let's say we do it in JavaScript, we know the browser window width, but we don't know how many characters will fit in a single line... For those reasons I'd rather stick with text-overflow: ellipsis in CSS.
