Just my 2c here, I'd recommend using "patrol" (and derived phrases like
patrolling,  patrolled, patroller, etc.) because the core feature that this
extension enhances is both internally and in the interface referred to as
patrolling:
* user right "patrol"
* database fields *_patrolled
* API actions, filters and properties
* SpecialPage filters hide/show patrolled
and the documentation all over the wikis for "edit patrol" RCPatrol and "new
page patrol" NPPatrol.

Since this extension didn't introduce the feature, but introduces an (awesome)
new interface to that existing feature, it would be confusing to call it
something else.


I agree with Fabrice about the ambiguity in the word "triage". Also, as a
foreigner, I have to say that until I got deeper into Wikimedia, I had never
heard the word "triage" before. So from a global point of view I think
"patroller" is more integrated and known.


And although "review" is at least as descriptive and known as "patrol", the
word "review" somewhat conflicts with the terminology for FlaggedRevs (which,
contrary to mediawiki patrolling, does not check individual changes but checks
the resulting page as a whole) so best not to confuse with those "reviewers".
