Hi guys,
Could you please tell what do you think is better to use as link text in
CMS:
- New article
- Create article

?
On one hand, it's good to use verbs/actions - Create, Add.

I'm with Michael. This may not fit the concept of universal design, but

can users sort the data and which elements of the dates are the most
