The word file is a fine word to use and is used correctly. As a verb, file means to make application (to file a complaint; to file for a job; to file a request).  Since this follows a definition of the word, I see no reason to have it need to be changed. Mark Weiman On Fri, 2015-11-20 at 17:26

If we wish to continue using the word "file" in this context, "File Request" should be changed to "File a Request". This would prevent native English speakers from misinterpreting our use of "file" as a noun. Having said that, I still feel that "lodge" is a more appropriate term in this

I'm not surprised it's come up. I used to read it and be in a state of thinking "this means two things" but logic prevailed and I discarded one of the interpretations. The user who filed the request is obviously a troll, looking at the username.
