Oct 13, 2016 at 14:32 comment added Peter @cleverbit My point is that there is only one action for the "log" prefix (no such thing as logging up). Therefore a link starting with log will never be mistaken for a registration link.
Oct 12, 2016 at 11:26 comment added Richard D The suggestion to use "Log" is based on a conflation between "Sign up" and "Sign in". While there does exist such a confusion, it is not a valid argument to prefer "Log" in this case.
