So I think we should defer deciding what to name the Triage button
for now and focus instead on bugs 9175 and 1170.
Bug# 9175 Why is the Triage Status sort button broken?
Bug# 11170 Disable Triage button when no items have section triage
status
I think both are more critical to solving the user problem of "People
can't figure out how to file triaged items out of NOW'. This is
especially true of 9175. It's increasingly clear that the first place
people go to try and purge triaged items out of NOW is the Triage
Status column header.
I think no matter what we name the Triage button, the purge workflow
won't be clear unless we fix 9175 and 11170.
I'm untargeting 11290 and recommending it be targeted to Future.
Bug# 11290 Rename Triage button

Hi Folks,
I like the idea of having the word Triage somewhere, but I think it's
problematic to name the button that essentially refreshes "Triage".
Triage suggests that you're actively triaging things when you press
the
button, when in fact, all you're doing is reordering stuff you've
already triaged.
I agree with PJE that refresh would match other apps, but I think
Mimi's
right that Sync + Refresh in the same toolbar is a recipe for worse
confusion than we already have.
I like clean-up. I agree that it could conceivably suggest trashing
things, but really, when I clean things up, I mostly put stuff away
where they belong, which is exactly what we're doing here. All
physical-reality->computer analogies are going to have problems, I
think
clean-up's association with the trash is weak enough that it's my
first
choice.
Sincerely,
Jeffrey
