        @UniSuperBox has been kind enough to give us a little bit of plot to coordinate our translations, so let's take advantage of it.

        I'll start. When translating "remove" I've seen eliminar, quitar y desinstalar.

        We must choose one to keep coherence.

          @advocatux Eliminar would be the best translation

            @speedracer08861 depends of the context: remove a bug - eliminar un fallo
            remove an app(lication) - deinstalar una ...

              @guru you're right about the importance of the context, but it's also important to select just one word because that's pretty handy when you want to do a search&replace

              So for now we'll try to use the word "eliminar" unless is better to use another due to context. Do you agree?

              P.S. There's a typo in your suggestion: deinstalar is desinstalar.

                @advocatux acabo de consultar mi DRAE: ambas palabras no tienen entrada en él, así no sé;

                  @guru maybe your DRAE is not updated.

                  Definición en RAE online: desinstalar

                  De des- e instalar.

                  1. tr. Inform. Eliminar del disco duro de una computadora los archivos necesarios para el funcionamiento de un programa.

                        The word quitar is the shortest.

                          @Cesar-Herrera that's right but the problem is nobody uses that word in tech documentation.
