Hi usability team,

Can we discuss improving the Drupal installation lifecycle wording? It's mostly to make it easier for the very beginner Drupaler.

I've drafted a document for your review

https://www.drupal.org/project/drupal/issues/2577407#comment-13750434

This issue and it's links to related issues define the wording problems, that extend for a decade. So your help is needed in concluding the back and forth, and closing the issues.

I second #3. This problem is about over-use of the word "install", and confusing wording in general, when you go to admin/modules (or admin/themes for that matter) and use the UI to upload a contrib module's code to your site via FTP. Huh, I didn't realize that someone actually made a meta issue for this:
#2888657: [meta] Less confusing and more consistent wording needed in module/theme add/install/update
which encompasses
#2577407: Action of uploading module/theme files should consistently be called "Add", not "Install"
(mentioned on the previous comment)
as well as about 10 other issues.

I just updated (phew!) the issue summary on the meta issue #2888657: [meta] Less confusing and more consistent wording needed in module/theme add/install/update to collect the whole process into one big messy sequence of bad usability, with screenshots from the child issues (of which there are many). So, we can look at that meta issue instead of all the child issues now, to figure out a more usable UI.
