Speaking from the sidelines... I would strongly support this. With Activity Streams, it was decided very early on that it would be better to use the infinitive form of activity verbs in nearly all cases. I would take this one step further and suggest "classify" to "classification"; "describe" for "description"; "identify" for "identifier"; and "moderate" for "moderation".
