[Status changed]

Transferred this into a task inside the Translations subproject, since this isn't a bug, but a larger redesign.

Some people should probably sit down and go through the buttons and links and make the new translations.

Most links and buttons do not conform to coherent style.
Various forms exist:
Verb + adjective (i.e. "add new")
Verb + objectr (i.e. "Add link")
Verb + adjective + object ("Add new jam session")
and in buttons sometimes just:
Verb
This is not probably a huge usability problem for urser, but can make translations a little bit more cumbersome than what they have to be.
Suggestion:

Standardise Verb on buttons
Standardise Verb + adjective or verb + object on links. If Verb + adjective, make the context (which object?) really visible

NOt a top priority bug, but needs to be fixed and will cause re-doing in translations.
