Terminology question.

In this message and MediaWiki:Googlelogin-form-merge/en there is talk about merging accounts whereas MediaWiki:Googlelogin-success-merge/en and several others talk about linking accounts. If this is in fact the same process then a unified terminology should be used. From the various messages I would assume that linking is what is actually being done.

Linking is much better as merging, yes. From the technical site the user has still an fully standalone wiki account, too. So only the ID's of the Google account and wiki account are linked together...
