I very seldom praised myself during my 48 years, but after 3 to 4 month of starting a Battle (June 9, 2008 ) for helping out NENs to get a better reference page where to find Common english expression & acronyms used on Drupal.org that we of Drupal Site Maintainers and Documentation Team can not aspect every Visitor can understand, finally the Day (August 20, 2008) has come that I could start over with an approximate agreement of some Leaders of the Documentation Team this project.
I'm working hard to settle as many Terms as possible and to provide good reference to easy and provide a "fast find doc resources" as to help anyone who wants to learn Drupal can have a better support, despite the mother language he or she have.
Today I get my first confirmation that my strategy is valuable from an user that just registered on Drupal 3 Days ago:
jwuk and that send me also an e-mail with thanks and acknowledgements.

Many thanks, Wolf, that was quite an eye opener. I kind of imagined the
docs being written by a bunch of high priests, nobody admitted until they
have 10 years of Drupal behind them! It's wonderful to realise one can
join the community and help out. Keep it up, I hope I'll be able to join
in eventually, perhaps rather earlier than I'd supposed.
Cheers, John

Thanks @yelvington , for your suggestion. Term was add. If you could have a look at Common expression & acronyms used on D.O. you may find other missing terms. Sorry if my answer did take that long ;-) (A lot of improvements to do on "Terminology" Project)
Thanks for your support.
