Why has Indexing been subsumed under "Get Involved"?

I was indexing last week and the Indexing header was there. Today it's gone and I finally found it under 'Get Involved'. What is the rationale for hiding it there?

    The new menu title - Get Involved - indicates there are more opportunities (the new Review Names app) besides Indexing available. Here is the Overview page:

    I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...

    Just in passing ...

    You are not alone ...

    There are others, that are dismayed, at the "Change", of the LABEL, of "Indexing", to that of "Get Involved".

    Here are a couple of 'Posts' on the matter ...

    Is Get Involved replacing Indexing?
