@ Bn Em:

A search I did just now for English words that are 3 words within one notably gave 'counterclockwise' (not a noun) and also somehow 'sunflower' made it to the list, but I think that must be an error. So, no nouns on one search result I got from Google.

I checked my list of unpublished submissions pending, and by my count I would have 5+2=7 I'd need to change to some degree (plus 2 settings files that would need to be copied with new names, a little more modified, then the original settings files could be deleted by Fergus later). Still a bit of trouble for just one tentatively unpopular piece type name choice.

In the M & B Articles of CVP site, I did notice some 3 English 'words' in 1 that are nouns that Gilman coined, especially in his second section with words beginning with C (towards the end of that section). I have yet to glance at his remaining sections (except for 'W', in case Gilman used warmachinewazir himself).

Please let me know sooner or later if I should do name editing all the same (unless you publish the 7 submissions without much delay, at least starting with the 4 submissions that are still under your personal review, it seems; note that this evening I've put 3 more submissions under review, and they all have the warmachinewazir piece type within).
