Follow PowerShell guidelines, use approved verbs.

These are just guidelines - however will raise with the team.

It also produces noise when importing the module.

One could probably still have "Create-*" as alias?

[anwather]

Yes - someone has picked it up and will fix for a future release.

@apybar - as discussed are you ok to update these commands?

[apybar]

@anwather - I'll update these commands
