For now I'd prefer this to be left, unless there is  areally good reason to
split out the verb and noun senses. The reason is that all such edits have
to go through me, and I am only just keeping up. It would be far better to hold
back the manual working on such a change until you can actually edit the records
themselves, and avoid double-handling.
