Comment(by demetris):

 Replying to [comment:7 nacin]:
 > Also, I think we should default to the same strings used for 'post' and
 'tag', as we more or less do now. I think 'item' is lame, 'term' less so.

 Now that I’m thinking about that again, if we could use Page strings as
 defaults for hierarchical post types, and Post strings for non-hierchical
 ones, it would be perfect.

 “tag” is not as generic to be ideal for defaults/fallbacks, but it will
 have to do, since it’s what we have available.

 About the nomenclature:

 Maybe we could simplify even more, and not use both label and post in the
 arg names.  That is, maybe we could use:

   * {{{edit_post}}}
   * {{{edit_posts}}} or {{{edit_post_plural}}}
   * {{{add_post}}}
   * etc.

 I’ll have another look at existing strings (and at the ones you linked to)
 and I’ll update the list in the next 24 hours.
