" Maybe I should eschew obfuscation."

+1

LOL. We have enough problems with English here - no need to add Latin to
our already strained conversations.

I like the idea of the "informal" category but isn't that more or less the
same as "proposed"?

IMO, the main difficulty with keeping the Wiki updated is that editing it
is tricky. I see grammatical errors all the time, for example, but don't
want to get into a big conversation about any changes I make so I often
just ignore them. And adding a proposal is simply too much work when I have
so many other things I want to add to the map. I guess that's due to my own
shortcomings. But then again, I imagine that issue keeps many mappers
besides me from altering or adding things to it.
