Abbreviations wiki thread?

Could the moderators create a wiki thread with common Marriott abbreviations and acronyms? It would only only help standardize usage on here, but help new members including those from legacy Starwood.

You can start one right here. Just change your Title line (click Edit and Go Advanced) and then add a wiki. Doesn't need to be a Mod.

This forum already has over a full page of sticky threads. It should be included in this thread: https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/marr...er-thread.html

A wiki isn't a sticky.

It would certainly help SPG members if there was a glossary of MR-specific lingo. These sorts of wikis are best when they are crowd-sourced, particularly when prolific forum posters step up to the plate.
