Terminology

Create New, Add

When something new is being created, UI artifacts (menu items, page titles) should be identified with the term Create New. When something is being added to something else, UI artifacts should be identified with the term Add. There is a subtle difference between the two terms, and choosing the correct one is important. An example:

You can create a new Party, and you can create a new Party Role Type. To connect the two, the terms used need additional information: Create New Party Role or Add Party Role to Party. A developer might prefer the first term - because a new PartyRole value is being created, and a user might prefer the second term - because a role is being added to a party.
