Problem/Motivation
Drupal uses specific terminology that might not be an industry standard or might not use concepts that people can accommodate in their mental models, which confuses less experienced users.
Proposed resolution
After analyzing the Card Sorting survey results (#3366986: Card Sorting survey) we (@dead_arm, @lauriii, @worldlinemine, @benjifisher, @simohell, @Emma Horrell and @ckrina) have defined several hypothesis. One of them has been that drupalisms might be having a bad impact in things like understanding Drupal, navigating or performing tasks.
So a first step to define the problem is to gather an initial list of the main existing drupalisms we are already aware of, both as a result of our own experience, previous user tests finding or other research like the one thoughtful compassion @rkoller did of several CMS admin main navigations. Another spreadsheet compares the page title, h1, primary and secondary task labels across the pages in the admin UI.
The goal of this issue is to find the drupalisms and discuss and come up with suggested alternative wording per each if needed (the solution part could be addressed in a follow-up). The goal isn't to change anything, but to come up with recommendations.
