I've added:

Querying Query query queries: "query" ambiguity

Benjie first raised the issue of the ambiguity of the term "query" as used in the GraphQL spec and ecosystem back in April. In just this title, we've referred to requesting, the Query type, a query operation, and a nested selection set; but that's just some of the ways we use this term, which can make it really hard for people new to GraphQL to get up to speed. Benjie has analyzed the use of the term, and has proposed a consistent set of terminology to use based on other terms used in the GraphQL spec already, to be discussed at the next Working Group. See Spec PR #777.
