Proposal. We should use standard terminology For the sake of consistency throughout this Wiki.

The standard spelling for Wikimapia should be Wikimapia and not WikiMapia with a capital M.

All markings should be referred to as objects and not 'tags'.

Object name Editable object Window name Edit window name
Place Place object Polygon Place window Place edit window
Road Road object Road segment Road window Road edit window
Railroad Railroad object Railroad segment Railroad window Railroad edit window
River River object River segment/riverside River window River edit window
Ferry Ferry object Ferry segment Ferry window Ferry edit window

For the sake of simplicity, read-only windows can be called 'window' and edit windows can be called 'edit window' when being referred to in their respective articles. RK77 04:55, 28 March 2012 (PDT)
