I would like to have a place to discuss the meaning of words casually

I've asked before what would be the most appropriate place for such
discussion, I've most often been told to use the tiki.  So my question
is: What should I name articles on the tiki for discussions of the
meanings of words?  Should they be named just the word itself, or
should they have some sort of prefix, or is there some sort of
directory/category system?

I would suggest naming it "Discussion: <word>", with reciprocal linking between the discussion and description (if existent) pages.

A couple of side notes, before I forget again:

1) {ki'e} is a COI, so you just thanked yourself. .u'icai I made that mistake myself rather recently, I believe .xorxes. pointed it out to me.

2) I've been meaning to ask you this for awhile, I just keep forgetting to. Why do you end with your signature (mi'e la.stela,selckiku.) before the valediction (mu'o)? Is it intentional for cultural reasons, as the English custom is "Sincerely, Me", not "Me, Sincerely"?
