The majority of the work we do isnt publishing,
removing copyrighted
content from an article isnt publishing. When discussing issues on talk
people dont see that as publishing but rather discussing.
As someone who has trained a lot of people if the term publish is used
it'll actually be a hindrance to getting them to make even the smallest of
spelling corrections.
Not every language has a word for publish, there are some 300 Indigenous
Australian languages that dont one our biggest challenges in taking the
first Australian Indigenous (Noongar[NYS]) language from incubator to live
is actually in finding the right words for the buttons and menus

A long-requested change to the "Save"

towards the
end of March. This is a button that anyone
leading a workshop about
editing
is going to talk about, so I wanted to make sure
that you didn't get
surprised by this change.
I set out may arguments against this change; and the negative impact
it will have in the draft namespace/ AFC in particular, in:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(techn
ical)/Archive_148#Save.2FPublish
AFAICT, the latter point in particular has not been addressed.
The downside is that all of the documentation and
help pages is going
to be out
of date.
Not to mention videos.
